40 for 40 or 40 Days and Nights in The Fashion Wilderness

Tomorrow marks the beginning of Lent, and another one of my Lenten projects. This year's project is superficial, yes, but maybe I'll learn something from it. Largely inspired by Kendi and others' 30 for 30 projects, I'm going for 40X40. I've picked out 39 items and have given myself one Wild Card if I get totally stumped.

The rules:
Pick out 40 items, make 40 outfits, NO SHOPPING.

Why:
Lent, sacrifice, you know.

Live within my means.

Confront my horrific little addiction to Fast Fashion.

Confront my horrific little addiction to "if I only had XXXXX, things would be perfect."

Confront additional "I'm so fat, I have nothing to wear" and "I am so awesome. I need something to wear" and "I suck so bad. Something new to wear would cheer me up" addictions.

Get creative with shoes, accessories, all that.

What I'm hoping:
That I can actually do it.

That I save some money.

That I look fanfuckingtastic.*

* I am also giving up swearing. Let that be my last.
