EziBuy Wardrobe Challenge

EziBuy got in contact with me before I left for Singapore and asked if I'd like to take part in the 21 Day Wardrobe Challenge.

The basic premise is that we wear 20% of our wardrobe, 80% of the time and by using 10 essential items, we can create 21 outfits which would extend your wardrobe.

I didn't know if it was going to be Lady Melbourne worthy, but I do love a wardrobe challenge and they said to me, 'We'd love to see what you do with the clothes mixed up with your accessories and vintage edge.'

Plus his Lordship says I do Nana chic like no one else(!) so I agreed waited for the clothes to arrive.

Then I found out that Nicole Bonython-Hines who is the Senior Fashion Editor at Madison magazine was involved and decided that I could take the challenge and make it my own.

They were completely out of tee I ordered, so you are in fact seeing 9 looks, but I've put lots of pictures.

And just to make it sweeter for you, they've offered one lucky Lady Melbourne reader a $50 EziBuy voucher to kick off the challenge!



Emerge Asymmetric Aladdin Pants

Thank you for this opportunity, I wasn't sure if I would be able to work the basics but it was fun playing dress ups and I like the results.

As with all the give aways, all you have to do is leave a comment on this post to be in the running.

Entries close 12th November 5pm AEST.

I love the first look and the jeans look best.
I think I heard about this challenge a while ago, but was too lazy to look into it further. Naughty me.

I love that coral coloured dress - the senso boots look great with it, even though it never occurred to me to team brown and coral.

Thanks for sharing :)

Well done, all looks really great, my fav is the first look with the red coat!

I do like how you've styled these pieces! I was approached to undertake the challenge as well (for the plus size ladies) and I'm still waiting on garments!!

After seeing your gorgeous styling and photographs, I'm very eager to have a play with the pieces I chose.

The trench is fabulous! Love the way you've styled everything up, not just dressy but casual outfits too. And it's great to see the combination of ezibuy stuff mixed with higher end and vintage.

I have heard of the Ezibuy website before, but are yet to purchase from them. Being a Mum of two children, I am very busy, so after looking at these wonderful outfits you have put together, I am now inspired to take a look and maybe make my first purchase. Thanks so much for the great inspiration and help!!!
