Here it is, friends! The end of the first week of the 31 Days-31 Ways Remix. As the remix began I was excited about my pieces and remixing them to create some new outfits. And then…IT set in. It is that moment when my creative juices begin to dry up and I realize I have a love/hate relationship with all of my clothing. I am wondering why I chose the pieces I did and can’t figure out anything that looks good together. Thankfully, IT dissipated and I began to see some outfits that I liked. Here’s the my reveal for Week 1.
My last outfit was inspired by Day 9 prompt from Caitlin. No, this dress wasn’t in my original pieces but I liked the little challenge incentive, so I threw it in because I had not worn this outfit before. The verdict? Love it!
Here’s a couple of outfits I posted previously, but had put them together for this challenge. I had posted them because I was so inspired by all the black and white I saw while I was out looking for fall ideas to style my wardrobe.
How about you? Are you inspired for fall? What are you remixing in your wardrobe to make some new and fresh outfits from your regular pieces? Would love to hear all about it.
Hope you have a lovely day!

Carrie @ Curly Crafty Mom says
I can honestly say I would wear all of these outfits! That leopard blouse is so pretty and my most favorite outfit is the one where you are wearing the black booties and the houndstooth skirt (which I want btw!).
Carrie says
Thanks, Carrie! I got the skirt at Old Navy online for about $9.00 on sale. Check it out because I think they are still available. Glad you stopped by!
Lana L. says
I love all of your plaid blouses. You always look so fresh and pretty! Great job :)!
Carrie says
Thanks, Lana! You’ll be seeing them in the Fall Challenge for sure. Glad you stopped by!
Selah @ A Bibliophile's Style says
Oh, the last outfit is divine! Gorgeous pattern mixing!
Carrie says
Thanks, Selah! I take that as a true compliment coming from the pattern mixing queen. Glad you stopped by.
Deena Simair says
I am also drawn to the plaid…and the foliage: it looks so pretty there!
Carrie says
Thanks, Deena! Can you believe these were taken in my neighborhood? in Texas??? lol

I love both your red plaid and animal print tops! They fit you perfectly and the colors really go well with your skin tone. Hope you have a great weekend!
Carrie says
Awww…thank you! So sweet! Glad you stopped by!
Chessa says
Loving all your animal print! Shirt and shoes, so cute! Also, that belted dress is adorable! You’re giving me some confidence to push my belting limits. 🙂
Carrie says
Thanks, Chessa! Trying some new belting options, for sure! I’d love to hear how it works out for you.
Sherelle says
I’m the same way with the clothes in my closet, lol! I always end up wondering where I planned on wearing some of the pieces. I’m glad you were able to piece together these looks! They are all so cute! I especially love the red cardigan paired with the booties!
Carrie says
It’s just crazy isn’t it? I come up with outfits in my head and when I put them on, they look hideous. Then in a moment I came up with all of these. Go figure? Glad you stopped by!
AlwaysJuNe says
Love your combinations!!!! It’s so much fun to see how you use same items to create completely different looks!!!!
Carrie says
Awww…thank you! Your so faithful to stop by and I really appreciate it!
Renae says
Oh Carrie, I’m thrilled with your new blog design. Awesome. I was almost thinking I had the wrong blog. Super photos, too. Thanks for your loyalty to Fashion ITEM Friday! ♥, Renae

Leslie Clingan says
Wow, Carrie…just love all of these outfits. Your bf jeans are adorable with the plaid shirt. Love the mix of patterns with the black and white cardi and blouse. Who created the 31 Days-31 Ways Remix shopping list? Great pieces!!!

Carrie says
Thanks, Leslie! No shopping list, just shopping my closet and remixing what I have to make 31 outfits.
Aubree Larsen says
I love that windowpane shirt and all the ways your remixed it!
Carrie says
Thanks, Aubree! Looking forward to remixing it in multiple ways this fall. Glad you stopped by!
ADA says
So many wonderful outfits, Carrie and so many great pieces. A very beautiful first week. The last two outfits with the skirts and both outfits with jeans and plaid button-downs are by far my favorites. I am pinning, girl. 😉
