Does anyone want to join in a fun dressing experiment/challenge? I read recently this article about Caitlyn whose husband Colin chose her outfits for her to wear for a week, and she was surprised and delighted by his choices! I thought it was really cute, sounded like a lot of fun and I’ve decided to give it a go … and wondered if anyone else in the sewing community would like to play along in solidarity too!
it’s pretty simple really! Just get someone else to choose your outfits for you every day for a week… and if they are willing, you could choose their outfits for the week too! But of course it’s absolutely fine if it’s just you. Or them… 
I’m aiming to do this thing between 1st September until 7th September.
You can partner up with your partner, your child, a parent, a sibling, a friend… anyone really, just someone who obviously cares enough about you not to send you out in a bikini and ball cap if the weather is freezing cold and raining, of course! I will be doing the challenge with Craig. He’s often quite interested in what I am wearing and makes styling suggestions and observations; which I listen to um, occasionally…! and I’m excited to put together a few ensembles I want to see him wearing too 
We might not “learn” anything at all from the week but if nothing else, I thought it would be a fun thing for us to do…
I’m going to post the outfits here in a week’s time… and I’ll post my own outfits to instagram as well using the #theirchoice hashtag. In fact, I think I’ll make that #theirchoice17, just in case lots of people have used it already. But I’ve already made my picture without the -17 on the end, sorry about that!
Please join me if you are willing and able… use the #theirchoice17 hashtag so I can find you because I would love to see how it goes for everyone! I’ll even work out how to do a link party and host it here on my blog… if I can! #technologicallychallenged
Who else is in?!
Note: the above picture is an old one and does not reflect what I will be wearing for the week… I have no idea as yet and am actually pretty excited to see what is in store for me!
