This season I decided to participate in the 10×10 challenge! The 10×10 challenge was started by Lee Vosburgh of Style Bee and it’s pretty simple.
You pick 10 pieces from your closet and create 10 different outfits with the pieces that you’ve chosen and wear them over 10 days. Don’t worry, undies, socks, workout clothes, pjs etc don’t count towards your 10 pieces.
I picked out 10 pieces from Amour Vert, and it became clear to me that 10 outfits was just wayyyyy too easy. So I decided to up the ante and go for 30 outfits!
I actually wound up with 32 outfits and I’m sure if I thought a little bit more I might be able to come up with a few more.
I’ve been a big fan of Amour Vert for several years. They’re locally made in San Francisco which is only a couple of miles away from my house! They’re committed to using all natural fibers and plant a tree for every tee that you buy.
I reached out to them for this 10×10 and they sent me a couple of new pieces for this challenge. We also went out to lunch and they bought me tacos. It was the best day ever.
I’ve always bought Amour Vert in store which is plastic free, but I’ve heard that they ship in a plastic bags which they’re phasing them out for compostable ones.
These are the 10 pieces I chose!
- White Tee
- Romantic Shirt
- Bird of Paradise Blouse
- Striped Tee
- Jumpsuit
- Navy Twill Pants
- Denim Shorts
- Blue Wrap Dress
- Blue Checkered Wrap Dress
- Flora Wrap Skirt
A lot of the capsule wardrobes I’ve seen are fairly neutral. And, I love neutrals! But, I also love color so I thought I’d really try to get creative with color.
Here are a few of the outfits put together.
But, if you’re looking for some true creativity then watch the video. Let me know which outfit was your favorite in the comment section below!
I absolutely love the creativity this requires and have to try it myself. That gingham dress you have is so adorable! Thanks for sharing 🙂

I’m so glad you liked it!
How cool! I need to get a wrap skirt now!!
Love the striped tee, both dresses and the bird of paradise blouse I try to stick to second hand but I am tempted…
I’m a big fan of pretty much all of these pieces but they’re so out of my price range D:
Maybe I’ll splurge on the wrap skirt with the botanical print …
Amour Vert is definitely an investment. Thankfully their pieces are timeless and so well made they’ll last for years to come! If i could only choose one piece, the wrap skirt would be my pick too!
OMG I have loved your 10×10 challenge this is also great stuff for travel wardrobe! Multi use pieces are key to super light weight minimal packing. I can live indefinitely on like 10 clothing items but only if I don’t mind wearing the same things all the time! You can up with great ways to change things up a bit and to give everything a fresh look. I would love love love a little video on how you tied the wrap skirt into a dress and top maybe in your insta stories or something? Please pretty please…*flutters eyelashes enticingly*
Yes! I am working on a video about x number of ways to tie a wrap dress and x number of way to tie a wrap skirt!
WOW, your skills to wrap the skirt and dresses are amazing!!! And the whole choice of pieces is so beautiful, I would love to buy them all right away 😀
