As promised, it’s time for me to share my first Top 10 Remix outfit! I got really excited yesterday as I saw more and more comments and tweets streaming in from people saying they plan to try it, and a couple bloggers even did their first post before I did! I gotta admit, I’m relieved. Much like an orgy, a style challenge can seem like a genius idea when you think of it, but it can turn awkward if you don’t get the reaction you expected. Not that I would know. My orgy and style challenge proposals have always been warmly received.

I’m starting off the Remix with my mint Rebecca Minkoff MAC bag. How did I know this bag should be included in my Top 10? First off, it’s mint green. I had to have something mint on the list. Second, I lusted after this bag for months, so it wasn’t just a spur of the moment purchase. Third, it was pretty pricey by my standards, so I had to sell an old designer bag on Poshmark in order to pay for it. In other words, I must really love it. You can see the rest of my Top 10 in this post. If you were thinking of joining the challenge but haven’t started yet, no worries! There’s no cut off. It’s only April 2nd, and you can jump in anytime. Happy remixing!

This here’s a lil something I wore on a recent weekend getaway (if a 90-minute drive counts as a getaway). Somehow, the outfits I shove in a duffel bag with very little thought end up being the best ones. Or maybe it’s just the natural glow I get from visiting the campus of my alma mater. #GoHoosiers #SomeoneBetterBeatKentucky
