30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 29 & 30


Summer Shade Jumper made by me / White Blouse Kohl's / Tan Boots Target / Eiffel Tower Earrings Etsy / (not pictured) Yellow Striped Cardigan Target 



Chambray Tunic J.C. Penny / White Tank J.C. Penny / Jeans J.C. Penny / Tan Boots Target / Eiffel Tower Etsy 


Girls I finished the 30 for 30 remix today! I can wear what ever I want now. Who knew I could find this so exciting? Not me. :p The problem now. I don't know what to wear tomorrow. I have too many choices to pick from. =) 

For my first outfit today {my birthday jumper/dress} I didn't wear the boots to church {I only wore them for taking pictures in the field.} instead I wore my pumps. I also wore my yellow striped cardigan. That means I wore three patterns to church. I'm getting better at this pattern mixing thing. =) And guess what? I never wore the same thing twice during this whole challenge. Now that was hard.

Oh guess what? I have all the winners picked out for the 21 giveaways. But they won't be revealed until tomorrow after I come back from work. So around 3:30PM - 4:30PM the list will be posted. Just so you know. ;-)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 28


Jeans J.C. Penny / White ruffle shirt Ann Taylor / Sandals Forever 21


Today I wore a more relaxed casual outfit. It's a stylish twist on the jeans & t-shirt combination. How is it more stylish? My t-shirt has ruffles on it! Isn't it cute? ;-) Ruffles help your outfit from looking too casual.

And guess what? Tomorrow is my last of during the challenge! I'm so excited! =)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 27



1920s white sundress made by me last year {sewing review) / yellow cardigan Target / purple earrings won in a giveaway / tan boots Target 


Only three more outfits until I'm done with the 30 for 30 remix challenge. That means on Sunday afternoon with my after church outfit I'll be done. Hurray! 

This outfit was just thrown together. As I didn't have anything that matched at all. Really I didn't. But I like it. Though the 1920s drop waist does nothing for the hips but make them look larger. :p

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 26


Yellow Sundress Gabrielle made it / Navy Blue Cardigan Old Navy / Tan Boots Target / Owl Ring Kohl's / Pearl Drop Earrings Kohl's


I'm really running out of options of what to wear. And I don't know if I can ever wear this dress again. Why? It's a little tight in the back - enough to make me not feel well while wearing the dress today. But maybe I can rescue it by by adjusting the zipper in the back. As I dearly love this dress. =)

Green yoked floral skirt made by me / White ruffled shirt Ann Taylor / Sandals Forever 21 / Green leaf earrings AmandaBeth Online


The end is in sight. Only five more outfits and the 30 for 30 challenge is over! I'm so excited for the challenge to end. That way I can wear what ever I like. Ah, that sounds good right now. :p I'm so excited to wear what ever I want that is in my closet. As I've missed it like crazy. Who knew I could miss the rest of my closet?

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 24



Summer Shade Jumper made by me / White Jacket made by me / Eiffel Tower earrings Etsy / Tan boots Target


Here is the final result of my 21st birthday dress/jumper! I used Marie-Madeline Studio's Summer Shade Jumper pattern and the buttons are from the 1940s! How cool is that? I took in the jumper a little bit on top so I can also wear it as a sundress - I just have to move the buttons up more on the straps (they are a little too low right now, if you know what I mean). If you haven't tried out this pattern yet you must! It is so easy to sew and fit! 

I want to thank everyone who wished me a happy birthday today! It means a lot to me - really it does. :) I had a wonderful birthday today. While at work today, I was able to spend the day with a dear friend of mine. We were able to talk during our little breaks and drink tea. It was wonderful! My party was a blast! My sisters did a wonderful job decorating the room. I'll try and post pictures tomorrow of the party - it turned out very vintage-y. =) I also received wonderful gifts from my family & friends!

Happy 4th of July everyone! I hope y'all had a wonderful day. I know I did. Oh, you will never believe what I saw tonight! Floating lanterns!! It was so cool to see them across the sky! I'll have to see if Gabrielle took a picture of them. If she did I'll post a picture for y'all to see. =)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 21 & 22

Cream Tunic Anthropologie / Jeans J.C. Penny / Cameo Necklace Portobello Road Market / Eiffel Tower Earrings Etsy / Red Polka-dot Scarf Target


You may wonder, where is outfit number twenty? Well....I didn't remember to take pictures of my outfit yesterday until 10:50PM. Yep, just a little too late to take pictures of my outfit. It's really hard to remember to take pictures on the week-end and during the holiday's. So I'll just tell y'all what I wore. =) Let's see...ah, yes, I wore my shorts {hand-me-down Gap}, blue ruffle t-shirt {Ann Taylor}, red polka-dot scarf {Target}, and sandals {Forever 21}.

I really like the outfit I wore to church today. It's a little vintage-y and even a little dash of patriotic. You know what? I really like tucking my Anthropologie tunic into high-waisted skirts. It's cute and different. Oh, I also finished my birthday dress today. It's so cute and something Casey of Elegant Musings would wear. I can't wait to show it to y'all either on Tuesday, or Wednesday. ;-)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 19


White Tank J.C. Penny / Yellow Striped Cardigan Target / White Skirt made by yours truly / Cameo Necklace Portobello Road Market / Owl Ring Kohl's / Sandals Forever 21 / Purple Leaf Earrings AmandaBeth Online


When I woke up this morning it just felt like it was going to be hot. Do you ever get that feeling? Well, I do and I had that feeling today. So I dressed accordingly - in white with a pop of color. One of my favorite looks in the "good old summertime." {comment if you know where I got that from.} =) 


I'm so excited that after tomorrow I'll only have 10 more outfits to do! The end is near! How exciting is that! But you know what? I've enjoyed posting my outfit posts everyday.


My friends Emily Rose and Breezy of Noble Rose Press are having a sale. All of their paper dolls and coloring book are on sale for $7 until Monday, July 4th, at Midnight. I adore their paper dolls! They are all Christian ladies of our past and they are dressed modestly. Plus they just look beautiful! If you haven't heard of them before go check out their website and blogs. 


Also as today is the first day of July. I have a bunch of new sponsors that you can find on the sidebar. Be sure to check out their sites! I won't do a sponsor post right now because you will find out all about them on July 5th. ;-)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 18


1940s Jean Jumper made by yours truly {pattern review} / Hot Pink Blouse J.C. Penny / Tan Boots Target / Black Belt Forever 21 / Floral Dangle Earrings Etsy {won in a giveaway}


I've worn an outfit like this before on the blog - just with a different belt & pair of earrings. But I knew this outfit looked nice and I needed an outfit fast this morning for work - a dressy one too. Tomorrow I'm going to try and be more creative with my outfit. But I have to be careful and not wear too many red, white, and blue outfits before the 4th. As I love dressing for the holiday's. =)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 17


Floral Skirt Made by me / Chambray Tunic J.C. Penny / Red & White Stripes Tank J.C. Penny / Red & White Polka-dot Earrings Etsy / Sandals Forever 21/ Owl Ring Kohl's


Look what I did. I mixed two patterns together again. Yep, I've done it twice this week so far. Woo hoo! What other fashion rules will I break this week? :)


I started working on my birthday dress today. I'm using Marie-Madeline Studio's Summer Shade jumper pattern. And guess what?!? I will be mixing patterns once again. Boy, I'm on a roll right now. =)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 16



Cream Tunic Anthropologie / Patchwork Skirt Made by yours truly {post} / Tan Boots Target / Black Skinny Belt Forever 21 / Layer Necklace Bass Shoe Outlet / Owl Ring Kohl's / Pink Rose Ring Etsy / Floral Drop Earrings Etsy


I found my new favorite outfit today. Isn't it simply darling?!? The shirt is really a tunic, but as these are these are the only two pieces of clothing left in my closet for the challenge {I didn't wash my clothes on purpose. This forces me to be more creative.} I decided to just tuck the tunic in my skirt. This gives me so many ideas on different ways I can wear my tunics {including this one}. So be bold. Do something unique. Try something new tomorrow, or even this week with one piece in your closet and post pictures on your blog and let me know that you did something different too. =)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 15



Navy Blue & White Stripe Shirt Kohl's / Yellow Sundress Gabrielle made it / Tan Boots Target / Cameo Necklace Portobello Road Market


I traded in my 1950s orange & blue sundress for this yellow sundress. Why? I wasn't inspired at all. Besides, this sundress is a more neutral color. :) And look. I'm mixing prints together. Oh. My. I've always been told, 'you don't wear prints together.' Over the past few years I've watched fashion bloggers mix prints. But I never got the courage to do so myself - until today that is. It took a remixing challenge to get me to mix my prints. :p 

Besides this being the half-way point in the 30x30 challenge {15th outfit}. This is also my 500th post on Bramblewood Fashion! Whoopee! 

Want more exciting news? Some movie magazines from the 1940s that I bought on Etsy last week came today in the mail. And one of them has an article on Deanna Durbin! I might scan some of the magazine pages and post them either on here, or one of my other blogs {here or here}. :)

I wore two outfits today. Well, I do every Sunday. Why? I don't really know. Just always have my whole life. -_- But do you know what this means? Tomorrow I'll reach the halfway point of the challenge.  How exciting! Because you know what? I miss the rest of my closet.
