FPFW: THE BASICS LIST

The 5 Piece French Wardrobe Challenge

Here’s an overview of the Rules:

  • You are allowed buy 5 new items every 6 months.
  • Basics don’t count as one of the 5 items (see my own basics list below)
  • Underwear / socks don’t count either
  • 1 investment bag per year is allowed
