Maybe I'm getting used to the elevator self portraits.

I dig this outfit.  This is actually a couple Fridays ago, from work to a triple-decker house party.  With my Kindle copy of American Gods in tow!

8 + My Closet Application

Dress from Nordstrom rack

FYI these are my fashion choices from last week.  I think I'm up to Wednesday and it appears that I was too tired to deal (more on that in another post) and just wanted to thrown on a dress and get on with my day.

Before I lose my entire readership, perhaps I could entice you with an application I've been using called MyCloset.

I have been DREAMING for just over half my lifetime of a computer program that could style outfits and itemize a wardrobe like the movie Clueless.  Half my lifetime.

It only occurred to me last month that I should do some research.  It's 2011, surely a comparable program has to be out there!  And there are some, but I'm a busy lady and don't have a whole lot of time for wardrobe management.  So I took this search a step forward.  Clearly, there must be an app for that!

It's possible that the equivalent iphone app is better, but the one I use on my beloved android is simple and good enough for me.

MyCloset, which is free on the android market is very very basic.  You enter your wardrobe items (meaning you need to take a picture of everything individually) and coordinate your outfits on the calendar.  Categories include: tops, bottoms, outerwear, accessories, shoes, and other.  This is actually quite limiting and probably my only complaint.  For me and prob just about everyone else, tops would include dresses, sweaters, vests, and even under the category of shirts there's tanks, tube tops, blouses, button downs...  Yes, possibly my only complaint.

Once you got your wardrobe in there, or at least enough to get you started, you can sort things by color, note what you wore on what day and also sort by how frequent you wear something.  I know I know, it's totally geeky, but simultaneously totally fab.

H&M striped tee / Old Navy camo shorts

Two very big nights out (I'm talking dancing queens and past 4 AM people) this is all you get for a Sunday.  It was Singapore wedding photo swap night, and I wasn't convinced until the very last second I was well enough to show up.  But I'm glad I did.  I swear, Sunday hangovers used to be cuter.

My cousin and  his GF just got engaged and we celebrated on not one, but two rooftop bars that evening!  And yes, it is a bit windy at the top...

My cousin came to visit on Friday with his GF.  And he had a question.

I got rained on.  Then I got my butt kicked.

H&M dress / H&M top / Old Navy belt / bracelet - gift

I'm pretty much over the work elevator self portraits.  I hope it doesn't offend you as much as it offends me.  Here it is.  Day 2 of the 30 x 30 challenge.  Wanted to go for something a little more fun.  I hardly ever wear this dress, which is why I included it in the challenge.  I also got complemented on it by some creepy old man in yet another ride in this lift. 

The shoes are not on the "30" list because they live in the office.  And that doesn't count.

Day 1 is easy.  There's tons to choose from.  I need to find a better self portrait spot.  The door-people must think I'm a nut.
