On Your Radar

11 Dresses Down, 354 Dresses To Go December 14, 2009

Right so I have decided this is going to be a challenge and I have succeeded thus far. Since December 5^th (including that day) I have worn only dresses and I will continue to do so for the rest of the year until December 4^th 2010.

A few rules:

Skirts are included. On Saturday I wore a skirt. That way also not all my tops go to waist for a whole year.  It will also allow for more variety as my current collection of dresses is not that large and so I don’t have to wear the same thing all the time until I buy more dresses.

Exercise trousers and pajama bottoms are ok. On the first half of Saturday I wore my track bottoms for my run and then my yoga bottoms for yoga class, and kept the latter pair on doing my shopping. I changed into my skirt when I went out. And I imagine if I spent a lazy Sunday not going out of the house I will just wear my pajama bottoms.

I’ll hopefully have some job interviews in the new year, but I should be able to buy something smart in the form of a dress or skirt. If I fail though I will have to allow my smart trousers to be worn for the occasion.

Other than that no trousers, and definitely no jeans!

I shall update on the progress every so often. Hopefully with tales of how wearing only dresses has drastically changed my life, however unlikely that may sound.

Maybe people will want to start donating dresses. Like the guy from shirtaday.com, who wears a different shirt each day and people send him their shirts and even pay him for it. Well I’m not in it for the money. I’m in it for the fun. But should this by a stroke of luck become as wildly popular I will accept donations and wear them, provided they are the right size and in good taste.

Tomorrow’s another day and it will bring another dress.
