Last week I (and four other awesome ladies) had the pleasure of partnering up with Eileen Fisher for a 5 day capsule wardrobe challenge on Instagram called the Eileen Edit. Eileen Fisher and Eileen Fisher Renew gifted me several pieces to mix with my own wardrobe and share how I do more with less. Eileen Fisher Renew was started in 2009 to take back used EF pieces and refresh, repair and resell. Over the 10 years they have been operating they have taken back over 1.2 million garments!
For day one I mixed a new EF cable knit sweater with a EF Renew dress (similar here), my Jenni Kayne bucket bag, and white Muji tennis shoes.
This outfit I call my take on a Canadian tuxedo and it is made up of all secondhand pieces (minus my Everlane Babo shoes). Both the Merino sweater and quilted vest are from EF Renew, while these jeans I thrifted while visiting NC (see them here too).
This Outfit is what I decided to wear on my first day of jury duty, oh yeah that happened last week too. I wore this new EF turtleneck, with my Two Days Off Kyoko pants in surplus (see them here too) and my all time favorite (and most asked about) loafer. This pair are a few years old from Aerosols and no longer sold, but there is a similar pair made by Everlane here.
I think this was my favorite look of the week. I wore this EF Renew mock neck sleeveless top with my super wide black jeans (similar here) and Everlane suede mule (no longer available but here’s a similar style). I also planned to wear that beautiful green wool jacket but it ended up being super hot that day!
Last day and it was a comfy one! I was this plum number is actually a jumpsuit from the Renew collection with that merino sweater from earlier in the week layered over. I paired it with my recycled plastic bottle shoes from Rothy’s that are 2 years old and still going strong!
