Welcome to the 10x10 challenge — where we create a mini capsule closet with the items we already have in our wardrobe. It's like a fashion puzzle, but way more fun. For this round, we’re creating corporate outfits that are SO comfy they feel like you're rocking pyjamas at your desk. Say goodbye to stiff collars and tight trousers; we're all about cozy, soft, stretchy fabrics at Miik.
10x10 Challenge | Corporate capsule wardrobe 2023
What is a 10x10 challenge?
Before we start, you might wonder what a 10x10 challenge is. It’s simple: pick 10 items from your closet, create 10 different outfits, and wear them over the next 10 days.
When choosing your items, make sure the colours match one another by practicing everything we learned from capsule wardrobes. If you feel a bit lost, pick one or two must-have items in your wardrobe and build on that. Another tip is to pick versatile items that can easily create multiple outfits.
What items are included in our 10x10 corporate challenge
We’ve selected neutral tones with pops of colour to brighten up the outfits. Remember when we suggested picking versatile items? Here’s what we chose: a reversible tank for different neckline options, and a button-up that can double as a cardigan. These two items can now easily create 4 outfits just by wearing them differently.
Here are the ten items we selected:
-
3 tops
-
1 blazer
-
1 dress
-
3 pants
-
2 shoes
EMILY BLAZER
RHODA TOP

Tips for choosing your 10x10 challenge items
-
Choose your colours wisely. First, select a few neutrals as your base, then pick a couple of secondary colours to complete your palette.
-
Accessories do not count as your ten items! Things like hats, scarves and pieces of jewelry are fair game and you should take advantage of them.
-
Check your calendar and the weather so you can pick your items accordingly.
-
Have fun! If something is not working out, just swap it for something else.
