Me Made May 2014

Well, Me Made May 2014 didn't exactly go as pledged.

I did wear me made every day, but I didn't take daily photos and I may have had some repeats in there.  I hadn't given my pledge enough thought before May, as the copy cat pledge from the previous years just didn't work for me this year.  I wasn't going to do this follow up post but I wanted to make sure for MMM15 I remember these reflections:

• Early May started out really busy with fashfest and I didn't have the time to check out the flickr pool
• I'm trying to limit my electronic/online time when the kids are around so that cuts out quite a bit of time - last year I dedicated easily an hour a day to the flickr pool
• I didn't have any enthusiasm for photographing and documenting outfits (that I continue to love and happily wear like this one but) had already documented during the previous 2 years MMM. 
• May is such a transitional month that this year I had well and truly turned my back on all the 'spring clothes' and had started thinking of my autumn wardrobe and didn't feel like wearing clothes just for my pledge preferring to focus more on my seasonal wardrobe.
• Happily I fully integrated my Rigel Bomber into my wardrobe. It gets worn often as my go to casual (when it's not too cold) outfit.
• I love all my May makes, especially my cocoon cardigan which is now in high rotation. 

I did miss the camaraderie and the inspiration from the flickr pool, but I popped in now and again and have enjoyed though slightly distanced this year, the month of other's selfies, especially on instagram.  Thanks Zoe for doing it again.  It really is a great event.

Did you participate in MMM? How did you go?

Oh and I just finished a dress today!! Stay tuned as I will blog about it verrrrry soon.
