StyleMe: July Instagram Photo Challenge
Thursday, June 28, 2012 at 11:15PM Hello #StyleMeJuly!
As I created this month's calendar all I could think of was hot, hot, hot summer days, hopefully lots of vacations, & fun-in-the-sun shenanigans. So I hope these prompts inspire you to more colorful, whimsical, joyful summer memories via your camera phones m'dears! If you're new here ...
What is #StyleMe?
The #StyleMe Challenge is a free month of stylish inspiration to help you get dressed every morning, while sharing your sartorial moments with an incredible, inspiring, encouraging community. Our bettys shares via Instagram, Twitter & their blogs in order to interact. Or, if you're not on social media or don't have a camera phone, we've got co-workers & friends who simply play together in their daily lives.
How does it work?
1. Save the calendar below on your phone, or print & tape it to your mirror. Use the prompt each day to inspire you to "wear, try or be" something from your wardrobe. Snap a photo & share via Instagram or Twitter using #StyleMe{InsertMonth}, plus link up your blog below & share your photos on "StyleMe Mondays" or anytime!
2. There are no rules. If you're someone stressed out by commitment, you don't have to do it every day. Or, if you like to finish something beginning to end {Type-A hand raised high thankyouvery much}, use this community as your daily accountability to be creative & remarkable from the 1st to the 31st. Either way, try not to buy anything new for this challenge. If this uncovers a genuine hole in your closet that's one thing -- this isn't about a spending freeze -- but I hope it encourages you to make better use of & rediscover what you already have, rather than crave to buy more.

LOL I feel like a #StyleMeSmartly (June) dropout but I DID read the book, comment on the FB book club, and watch Breakfast At Tiffany's (early) so ...... heck I guess I'm being hard on myself!! Thanks as always Hilary for the inspiration and cheer (and grace and gumption yada yada yada!).
Always progress over perfection, Paula! ;) Last month was a different rhythm with the book club & I'm excited to mix it up again by coming back to "classic" #StyleMe this month!
