I like travel posts, because you get to see how items are remixed. Did you enjoy having a limited wardrobe? I find when I travel I like the smaller number of choices, at least for a little while.

Wow, that's a lot of outfits for a week! I wonder how many you'll end up with for the month? Hee hee on #11 Gear is part of life, too!

You look great in every one of these! I tend to wear the same combinations again and again, so I am super impressed with your remixing skills.

Neel

There is no limit to your polished gorgeousness! The Danier jacket is super flattering on you! I am not sure which one is my favorite! I like all of them!

And you are the most stylish traveler I have ever seen!

Mochi

Superb. You have a really elegant-sporty style and your wardrobe items play so well together.

Incidentally, I look at the collarless leather jacket in the second pic, and think: She could have handled my Halogen jacket! It doesn't elongate your neck or anything. In fact, it's really gorgeously styled.

You gorgeous creature - from start to finish. You have become quite the trouser gal too. High five.

I'm going with #1, #5, #10, and #12 that whack it out of the ball park for me. Killer looks.

Gorgeous -- love seeing the different combinations.

amiable

Yay! You look so terrifically fabulous!

You've totally given me an idea with 12 on how to style my Pettys. Thank you!

Alexandra

Yay, this is awesome! I enjoy seeing your combinations, especially the ones with jeans.

carter

Yay! I was afraid I'd missed the presentation pics. Fabulous travel wardrobe. 2, 7, 10 and 11 are my favorites...yes, even in gear you look completely put together. Love them all!

How do you do it, Suz? You rock the half-tuck like no one else, and your colors are spot on. 8 is probably my least favorite just because it doesn't seem very "suz-ish" but I do like you in a skirt/dress occasionally; you have great legs.

Missey

Your travel wardrobe is perfection...you are an outfit mixologist! Each outfit you created is fresh and different enough from the others that a repeat piece looks new in each one..Bravo!

Emily

Suz, you look great in all of these and extra cute in your gear! I extra-love your daytime sparkly sweater, and neutral/ink blue/burgundy colour palette.

I always love it when you post wiws and this is no exception! I can't believe you can travel wearing a leather jacket: when I have long travel days I always layer with a cardigan instead for the comfort factor.

Parsley

I love all of these, Suz!
It's always fun to see people's travel capsules, and yours works to perfection!
#5 with that sparkly sweatshirt is so very FABULOUS I almost can't get past it!

I love your style! AND, you know, I love how you dressed up to visit your mother!

deb

You always look so good!

Windchime

What a full weekend you had, and you more than rose to every occasion with these terrific outfits! I love your blue blingy sweatshirt and your baggy trousers, to name just a couple.

Aida

Goodness, sounds like you had a busy busy week and here you've got each outfit looking super! I must say I'm a sucker for the leather jacket outfits, that jacket just looks so amazing on you. Also adore #3 and #5. Your travel capsule really showcases how versatile a few well selected pieces can work in tandem.

Marmee

Love them all. Hard to choose a favorite, but I particularly like 6/7 and 9. And #11 for the health benefits!

Suz

Thanks, everyone. This was a tough week to dress for, to be honest, and my suitcase was a packed! I had to carry a lot of books with me. And the weather was so up and down. Freezing with snow one day, warm, windy, and rainy the next. Plus I had so many activities.

E, I took the jacket off in the train -- I wore it outdoors on the warmer day as my outer layer, and under my wool coat as a layer on the cold day.

Peri

I love them all, but I really love the pink spotted top...I want it to be mine. You don't want it anymore, do you?

Karie

I love how you re-mixed outfits for travel. They are all gorgeous, but my favorite is #6. I love that scarf, top, and belt together.

Suz, do you jog in the winter in your climate? My rule is it has to be 20 degrees F or above.

Well, today it was pretty warm, Karie! So I was okay. But I do run pretty often through the winter. Not on the very windiest, coldest days, or days with a lot of ice underfoot. I just like to get outdoors for exercise when I can. So I layer up.

Amy

Suz, you look marvelous in all of these!

Suz that makes a lot more sense! I once left a jacket on a plane when I flying back to college and it made me so sad that now if I'm travelling with outerwear I strap it to my backpack so I can't possible lose it. lol

Jaime

So many great looks - daytime sparkle, white belt, slouchy trousers, great sweaters and of course I love the navy booties. No way I can pick a favorite - you manage so many fab outfits with a travel capsule. Hope I get to see how that works in person

You will for sure, Shevia --- the plan is next spring (i.e not 2014 but 2015). This year the timing doesn't work so well for DD's school holiday and family holidays there...so next year it is.
