{Stop}

So I titled this post "Stop" because I have decided to stop the 30x30 challenge.  This time around I got to 24 out of 30 days.  I almost titled the post "quitter."  The actual definition of a quitter though is a person who gives up easily; defeatist, deserter, or shirker, and I don't believe that stopping the challenge short of 6 outfits means I have given up easily.  Truthfully I was not enjoying the challenge because it was seriously turning up the heat with all the accessorizing and layering to make each outfit unique.  I am so proud of all my fellow remixers, who completed the challenge.  You have way more will power than me.  On the bright side, the end of the challenge has also given me the opportunity to start sharing what I have been really excited about.  My Paris pictures!  Over the next couple of weeks I will be sharing pictures from each day of the trip.  I hope you enjoy them.  Up first...day one in Paris, while shopping on the Champs Elysées...J

{Night Owl}

We almost missed the window of time to snap these pics as the sun was going down, but we were just in time.  I have been wishing for the Celine luggage tote for some time now.   I have been particularly fond of the richness of the olive green {almost chocolate} shade of this suede against the black leather.  So imagine my excitement when I snagged the last one at the Monte Carlo, Monaco Celine boutique.  It was a good day.  Happy almost Friday...J

{Jailbird}

Day 17 of my Remix, I busted out my jailbird dress.  I know the remix is supposed to make me feel creative, but some days I get up feeling a little trapped since there is restricted access to my non 30x30 items.  I found these bangles in Paris, and I have considered sleeping in them.  They give my favorite new "FayLynn" necklace a run for their money.  Hope to see you tomorrow....J

{Blended}

I love leopard.  Have I mentioned that lately?  I also am realizing what good camouflage it might be against this brick wall.  If I ever intended to hide from my neighbors in this parking lot {after purchasing some pants to match this tip}, I would be in business.  I would also be a weirdo because who pretends to be a blended in leopard in a parking lot.  See you here tomorrow with one of my first pieces from the DahliaLynn Fall and Winter Collection....J

{Back Home}

H-E-L-L-O!  I'm back from Paris.  Mr. Reasons and I had such a great time in Paris, and I am so excited to share some pictures with you.  But first I need to finish what I started before my trip.  Remember my 30x30 challenge.  Well here is day 15.  I am officially over half way through with more photos to come this week.  Happy Monday....J

{Foggy}

So day 14 of the remix brought rain again.  Are you getting sick of the umbrella pictures yet?  I was not super excited about these outfit pictures as it was so humid and foggy, the lens of my camera actually fogged up.   I do, however, love this new DahliaLynn piece.  I am actually wearing three necklaces, but the maroon & gold is a new design.  Should be up in the shop soon.  Happy Tues...J
