Here are my 30 pieces--or rather, my 29 pieces, because I haven't figured out what I want for piece #30. Inevitably I forget one thing that I end up wanting halfway through, plus, it helps mentally because I feel like I could have anything from my closet just in case I need it. I'm super-excited for this challenge and ready to remix my little heart out! I'd love to hear (and visit you) if you're doing the 30 for 30, too. I'm always looking for new inspiration, particularly when I have limited pieces to work with.
P.S. Here are remixes one and two if you want to check them out :)

I'm excited to start my first 30 for 30 tomorrow! Can't wait to see what everyone does. :)
I made up a hand-drawn chart of all of my pieces, but after seeing everyone's pictures, I may need some photo-documentation too.
I was looking forward to this post Tania! Of course we both are using the gingham shirt - maybe we can style them up for each other? It can be like a mini gingham style challenge.
Love your picks!! Can't wait to see how they get wwnaw-ified :) I'm going to be posting my picks later on tonight, can't wait!
Small Time Style
I'm doing the 30 for 30 too! I don't have my picks on my blog yet, hopefully tonight.
Can't wait to see what you come up with. Cute blog! :)
Nice picks! I'm especially happy to see Bean boots in there. I wear mine almost daily, although just as snow/rain boots, so I'm not counting them in my 30.
@Trisha - I drew out my picks! Would like to see your sketches,too :)
love your picks, tania!! especially the ll bean boots! ah, can't wait to see them remixed!! (:
Wonderful picks!
You come up with the classiest combos! Good luck!
Ooooooh, so delicious! I can't wait to see all of these.
And, right now I have the same orange jcrew skirt in my 30x30 pile. I can't decide whether to use it or my liberty print one. We'll see, I guess!
I'm excited to start 30 for 30 tomorrow. I have all my picks up, too!

It will be great to see how you style these pieces--you're very clever at it. I'm joining the 30for30 this time around, and I hope to get my pieces posted later this evening!
Great picks, I was looking forward to seeing what you would include! I am doing the 30x30 for the first time and posting my picks tonight!
I love the picks! can't wait to see what you come up with!
Ooo your dress from Anthro is really pretty!! =) Good luck with the challenge!! =)
Melanie's Randomness
So excited for this 30 for 30! I'm a first timer, but saw your previous 30 for 30 and got interested. :) Thanks for the inspiration!

excited to see these looks come together!

i wander, i wonder
1. The 30th piece is always the hardest for me to pick! I chose a really random wild card to see what I can do with.
2. It looks like you have some great pieces to work with! Do you have that J.Crew buffalo check shirt in two colors? I feel like I've seen you in the orange one…right?
3. I've seen a lot of people including that Target blazer! Love it.
4. I spy a red and white striped shirt! Glad you found one before the challenge :)
5. Skirt envy! I really wanted that purple paperbag UO skirt, but it was sold out by the time I had enough money for it. And I saw that J.Crew skirt at the mall over the weekend, so I will be excited to see how you remix it.
I am now going to check out your first remix, since I loved your second one!
Very excited to see that you're doing the 30x30 again. I think I might follow your lead and leave a wildcard spot in my pick. I haven't posted yet for this round, but I'm excited to start up soon- this will be my second time. I just did a wrap up post for the fall round, so I'm hoping to get through this round much quicker.
Embracing Your Inner Cupcake
Someone's gonna have to convince me to participate b/c I still feel mildly shell shocked from the last one. I'm partially not sure why that felt so torturous. And yet I still kind of want to try again... I have heard the second one is easier... hmm... we'll see.
Nice picks! Can't wait to see how you'll remix all of it. I'm new to the blogging world and want to try the 30 for 30 but I don't know if I'm ready!!! Good luck!

i'm doing the 30 for 30 for the first time. i posted my pics last night. this should be interesting!
Love it! You have inspired my picks and outfits so much! This is my first time doing the 30 for 30. I started a couple days ago just to get ahead and I'm loving it so far!
Thanks for blogging! :-)
I'm so regreting not joining! Probably next time, I'm so excited for all of you {ones I follow] Can't wait to see all of these mixed! ... loved the cardi selection!
Good luck! xo

Congrats on starting the 30 for 30! I'm currently doing a dress challenge (to wear every single dress at least once with no repeats - I have 85 of them). But maybe once I'm done, I'll do the 30 for 30 too! Looking forward to seeing your posts!

I'm doing the challenge too, and I can't wait to see what outfits you come up with!
Looking forward to seeing you remix! I think since I went abroad last year and spent nine month on a more or less '30 for 30 challenge', I'm a little burnt out on the concept myself. But I still love watching others create unique looks with limited pieces. S.
just posted my 30 pieces yesterday! it's my second time and i'm excited to go at it again.
I'm doing my very first 30 for 30 this time around! It was actually tricky getting from about 20 to 30 - I seem to have a lot of go-to pieces and don't know what to do with the rest.
You can see my picks at http://www.cupcait.com/2011/01/my-30-for-30-picks.html
I look forward to following your month of remixes!
I'm trying the 30 for 30 for the first time - squeeeeeeee! I can't wait to get home from work tonight so I can post all of my items. I meant to take pictures last night... but I left half of my shoes at the office, and I wasn't sure which ones I would be using. Aghhhh!!
That's a really good idea to have a back-up piece! I'm excited to start tomorrow. I've got week one all planned out :)
I can't wait to see how everyone does.

Great items! I'm doing the remix challenge again, but I'm so behind on picking out items! Last time, they just jumped out at me, but this time, I'm having a harder time trying to decide.

Such a great selection! :)
Great picks! I just ordered those UO pumps online in red and they're supposed to arrive today, but they haven't come yet. Hopefully they get here by 9pm so they can make it in the shoe picture!

I am participating in this 30 for 30 - my first time to do so "officially" - I'm so excited!

What a very bold move! Good luck! Can't wait to see what you come up with!
this is my first time doing the 30x30 and im excited and nervous!!!

Great picks! Love your skirts! I wondered how many shoes I should use and felt that the snow boots shouldn't be part of it. But well, it's there now. :) Excited!
This is my first 30x30 and I'm really excited to try it out! You inspired me to keep my 30th piece a wild card incase something comes up or inspiration strikes. :) Can't wait to see how you remix.
Emily
I'm doing it again too - http://all-about-aj.blogspot.com. I'm excited to see your outfits!
I'm doing it again! I can't wait :) I so wish I lived in a little bit warmer climate but hopefully for the spring remix the midwest will be in the 50s.. I hope! haha
I'm in for this one. I did one last summer but dropped out at 18. I posted my choices yesterday, and have a few outfits planned that are inspired by you.
with a new blog on my hands, i can't wait to dive into my first 30 for 30! i just made the decision to do it tonight, so i think i won't be starting until wednesday! picking 30 pieces is so challenging!!!
http://bettycrockettrocknroll.blogspot.com/
Love it!! I am soo excited! But when I was going through my closet to pick everything out I realized how few skirts I have! I am so jealous of yours! I think after the shopping ban, skirts are top of my list!!

I'm doing it for the first time. I'm nervous! I'm looking around and think I need to find more skirts. Also, do tank tops under shirts count?
I am doing mine for the first time!! I'm really excited about it! I have my picks up =)

I start my first 30 tomorrow. I'm excited to be giving it a shot! I can't wait to see your take on the challenge- I loved your last one.... you have a seriously amazing collection of clothes.
I always enjoy seeing what you put together! Wish I wasn't too chicken to join in ;) Love the idea of leaving one thing out "just in case!"
Good luck!

Very fun!!! Like verybody else, I'm looking forward to your mixes. I'm especially wondering how bold you're going to get with your color combos. I'd love some inspiration in using bold color in a sophisticaed way. For some reason, sophisticated always seems to mean neutral in my little mind. Love your choices!
Oh, this will be so fun!! I'm doing my first 30 for 30 on my brand spankin' new blog and I'm really excited to follow along with some 30 for 30 veterans. I loved what you did on the last one's you particitpated in! Great inspiration!
xoxo

You chose lovely pieces. Can't wait to see your outfits.
I'm on my 2nd remix and tried to use less black, more color & patterns, less shoes (well ok, 5 pairs instead of 6) and no clothes from the last remix. Here's hoping...!
Good luck! Those are some solid choices and I can't wait to see what you come up with :)

I am doing my first 30/30 this time. I love your blog and always look to you for some inspiration, so I am excited to follow you during this challenge!!!

I was very inspired by your last 30/30 remixes, and it prompted me to join in this time. It's my first time, but I think it'll be good for getting me out of my current rut!
It's funny--I went to grad school in the midwest, and now I currently have a fancy fellowship very near the area you are from... All I can say--amazing weather!

I feel like snowmageddon is going to derail some of my plans of actually going out in public while wearing my outfits. Maybe I'll just play dress-up.
Here's my 30 for 30, in case you're interested.

Your pieces look great! I'm actually considering leaving a little bit of a buffer in my 30 too...just in case!
http://queenofoz.blogspot.com/
Looks like your 30x30 is going to include some of that stellar color-mixing you do so well! I love that purple skirt from kakalina rose vintage, I'm psyched to see what you do with it.
I'd hoped to include that same Target blazer in my picks, but after having my poor mother rustle around in the boxes of clothes I left with her, it turns out all my warmest garments went up to storage in MA - whoops! So I'll just have file away remix inspiration on that one until I get back.

This will be my first 30 for 30. I was surprised at how tough it was selecting 30 items.
Meow & Mwah
Feeling much better that you left a spot open in your 30 too. I wasn't sure if I was cheating... But, I totally agree it gives me comfort and will justify bragging rights if I do 29 for 30 ;)
Leaving the House in THIS?!?!
