Mission: Put Together {Wrap Up}

I blogged a bit earlier this month about how I was participating in Mission: Put Together this month over on flickr.  Well, I'm happy to say I made it through the whole month! Here's all 31 of my outfits:

{Check out my flickr set for more info on each outfit!}

I had a ton of fun with this challenge!  It was relatively easy to keep up with, and awesome to be able to easily see what everyone else was wearing via flickr!  Now I just cross my fingers and hope I win that pair of Gap jeans that is up for grabs. :-)

Mission: Put Together Week 3

Week 3 was all about texture!

Monday; Tuesday; Wednesday

Thursday; Friday; Saturday (Sat. was "wear something braided/woven/twisted" and I wore a woven bracelet!)

Sunday I started my 30 for 30 so I'll go back to regular outfit posts tomorrow as I blog my way through that!  I'm also still doing M:PT, and this week is "shine". :-)

Check out my flickr set for more info on each outfit, and be sure to check out all the awesome outfits in the group!

Mission: Put Together Week 2

Week 2 was all about pattern!

Mission: Put Together Week 1

Week 1: Color

Weekend 1: Colored Accessories and Stripes

So rather than post all of my looks individually, I thought I'd just do some regular round ups.  I was starting to confuse myself with all that posting...anyway, if you want to know more about each individual look, please check out my flickr set.  And be sure to hop on over to the group!

I am really enjoying this challenge!  I love that it's on flickr, that most people have taken their photos with their phones, that it's not just bloggers...I feel like the pressure to constantly compete and take awesome outfit photos has been lifted.  Stepping back is awesome.

P.S. Say is trying to reach 50 followers by her birthday! Please go check her blog out! :-)

National Bike Month & Mission: Put Together

So apparently May is National Bike Month.  Which is especially cool because I just bought a bike!  We were in my old college town this last weekend visiting my grandma and my old church, when we spotted this:

Sears Floral Top; Thrifted Skirt ($4); So Flats ($9); Bike via Garage Sale ($50)

I am super excited!  It's hard to find a nice bike that fits me properly and is affordable.  This one was made in the early 50s and is in great shape with a new seat and tires.

This is when my little brother said "work it!"

My husband is all excited to fix it up for me.  It rides just fine now, but we're going to paint it and make it look pretty. :-)  I also got a cute basket and a bell for it.

Today also starts the month long Mission: Put Together!  All you need to participate is a flickr account, so hop on over and check it out!  I'll be posting my looks every day, starting with this one.  This week's challenge is "color".

Happy May! :-)

This bike is kitty approved.
