This is the outfit you liked most. I wore it on St Patrick's Day of the first week of the challenge, where I wore all green.
Your favourite outfit from the challenge - Week 1, day 4: Bright dress
The votes were spread across the outfits, but of the 43 votes, 27% of you (12 votes) liked this outfit most. It was enough to win the challenge.

Runner-up was the era-a-day 1940s outfit, with 8 votes and 18% of the total.
Number 2 in the challenge - Week 3, day 1: 1940s dressing
The third fave outfit was from the emo/goth/punk week. It received 7 votes, with 16%.

Interestingly, all three of these outfits came second in the weekly votes. It's your prerogative to change your mind.

Week 4 summary - Goth, emo, punk

It's the last week, people. recap the last week - goth, emo, punk - with me now.
Monday: corporate emo

Tuesday: fishnet goth
Wednesday: slashy emo
Thursday: goth punk
Friday: emo chic
Saturday: leather punk
Sunday: chillaxin' emo

What a week. It was actually a fair bit of fun. Given the stuff is from my wardrobe, I do wear it, just generally not in such an overt way, nor do I wear red eyeshadow!

Week 4 Day 7: Sunday - Goth, emo, punk

Well, today's the last day of the challenge and I didn't pull out all stops. I'm hiding away in a Witchery grey marle cotton hoodie.
I wore my usual Sunday slob clothes and went with the dark and brooding blacks and greys.
Under the hoodie, I have a Cotton On singlet dress and tights from Woolford. Woolford make fabulous hosiery.

I like the ruching detail on this hoodie
I'm wearing with a pair of Nine West leather over-the-knee flat boots I bought shopping in NY. Wow that city is spectacular. I think I will be there to live at the end of the year.
So this outfit signals the end to Fashion-Me Challenge outfits! I think it's appropriate that I just slink back into my hoodie and stay here!

Thanks for following me through the challenge, and don't forget to vote for your favourite outfits while you can.
