You look incredibly stylish, even at the beach. Mrs B is beyond cute, relaxing at the beach, playing with her friend and especially in her life vest. No wonder she came home exhausted! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach/page/2#post-1901656 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 12:19:06 +0000 Aurore 1901656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Seems to have been a wonderful time despite the beach! Your outfits were stunning - especially the one with the floral trousers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach/page/2#post-1898526 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 12:59:53 +0000 Janet 1898526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look much more pulled together than I ever do on beach vacation, despite my best efforts! YLF indeed. And the pics are great. What a treat to vacation with your sweet dog! Glad you had a good time.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach/page/2#post-1898524 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 12:57:35 +0000 Aquamarine 1898524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Super vacation looks! Why am I not surprised? Even if it’s not your type of holiday, you look relaxed and way more glamorous than I do on a beach vacation </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898518 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 12:52:43 +0000 Angie 1898518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Brooklyn</b>, you lucky fish. Coastal and country holidays with doggies are equally fab. Sam's pint size - 6 pounds - but can do a 3 hour hike on treacherous terrain with the best of them. He's much fitter then us! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898477 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 10:17:30 +0000 Brooklyn 1898477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sterling, I am very flattered! That’s fine. I think, what with the sunnies and the fuzzy hair over my face, I am pretty unrecognisable (so I don’t think you have to crop). But thanks for asking. </p> <p>Jenni, thanks. I am the same. I’ll spend about 30-45 minutes swimming in the surf and have had enough for the day. But DH will stay in the surf all day. We sometimes go to Noosa. That has more to offer me because it has shops and a cinema and a gym and scenic bush walks. Plus the beach for DH. But we can’t take the puppy dog. So this was better. </p> <p>Thanks Katerina and Cardiff Girl. We did have a lovely time. Katerina, you would rock floral wide leg pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898465 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 09:30:31 +0000 Anonymous 1898465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><u>With your permission</u>, I would like to add Number 7 to my Style Board or Silhouette Collection. </p> <p>I will only do this with your permission ... and if you like I will crop out your head. &nbsp;Please let me know if this is acceptable to you. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898458 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 08:10:03 +0000 Jenni NZ 1898458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous beach. I love your outfits in 2 and 4 especially. Beachy Brooklyn and Botanical Brooklyn! I'm not so beachy myself, DH is much more so. I will swim in surf only a little bit. A nice beach town which also has some shops and some historic interest and some trashy novels available is our best compromise! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898448 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 07:48:11 +0000 Cardiff girl 1898448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a lovely place,and you look the epitome of beach glam,hope you had a lovely time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898437 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 05:49:23 +0000 Katerina 1898437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brooklyn, what a fantastic post, thank you! What a wonderful beach and stunning pictures. I am more of a city holiday person myself too, but your pictures make me longing for a beach holiday :-)<br /> You look like a movie star. No 4 is my favourite - can´t tell you how much I like that outfit. The pants are fantastic.<br /> Ms B is beautiful!<br /> Happy you had a great time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898433 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 05:36:29 +0000 Brooklyn 1898433@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Joy. Sorry about your DGS. Getting sick or injured on a holiday is a hassle. I went to Hawaii a few years back and really enjoyed it. Such a lovely place. My floral pants would enjoy a trip there. They are look a bit “resort wear” I think. </p> <p>And thanks KG. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898422 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 05:05:32 +0000 kellygirl 1898422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You may not like the beach but it sure suits you! Glad you got to enjoy it with your pooch too. You look stunning in every pic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898420 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 04:51:04 +0000 Anonymous 1898420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy, happy, happy! You look fabulous! The floral pants are my favorite outfit and Mrs. B and friend playing my favorite photo.<br /> I was not particularly happy with my beach capsule for Hawaii, but it worked and I wore almost everything I took.<br /> DGS fell down a steep set of concrete and tile stairs minutes after we arrived and needed stitches above his eye. (His baby sister looked adorable in her bubble suits and sun hat.) Therefore no swimming or water play for almost all the time we were at the beach. I like to stroll on the sand and watch the wildlife ( sea turtles, whales and tide pool life, wind surfers and paddle boarders). JAileen we did see some birds, including endangered nearly extinct Hawaiian coots and Japanese white eyes (a little green finch that sang in the hibiscus outside the bedroom window). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898413 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 04:24:41 +0000 Brooklyn 1898413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Shevia and Jenn. DH has been on his fair share of urban holidays with me, so I can't complain. And I think Ms B would vote for the beach!</p> <p>Thanks Sally. We are having temps in the mid 20s. But much less sticky/humid and cooling down more at night. I love March and April. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898400 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 03:12:55 +0000 Jaime 1898400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also prefer urban holidays but then something about the beach does do its magic when you get there. You look gorgeous as ever and Ms. B is certainly a fan! I like your beach hat too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898375 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 01:44:25 +0000 Jenn 1898375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t think it matters what you’re wearing here, because you look so fantastically<br /> laid-back and relaxed. Im not so big on beach vacations either, but my husband spent a good portion of his childhood in California, so we compromise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898372 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 01:25:17 +0000 Sal 1898372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks lovely Brooklyn and pleased that you all had a terrific break away.&nbsp; &nbsp;How great that Ms B could come too.</p> <p>You look wonderful and relaxed!!&nbsp; And your ombre Havaianas (jandals to me) are perfect.</p> <p>Pleased you are getting some use from the wide leg pants because they look good on.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>It is changeable weather here now but I think over Easter I will put away my summer items....still warm but high summer gear is no longer feeling quite right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898358 Wed, 14 Mar 2018 00:36:12 +0000 Brooklyn 1898358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I didn't mean to make it sound like a hardship - going on beach vacation. Of course it wasn't! It was very relaxing. My preferred holiday venues are urban or country, but a holiday is a holiday is a holiday, and is always appreciated. And just look at those views. Plus there was lots of nice eating :)</p> <p>Angie, I knew you would like the puppy dog pics! Ms B had a glorious time. We are fortunate that we have friends in the country who live on a sheep farm, so now she gets country and coastal getaways. Thanks for the K2K!</p> <p>Suz, thanks. It is a great spot. I think that sneakers and skirt formula could work for you in summer.</p> <p>Rachy, I will take that as a compliment! I thought someone might comment on the wisdom of taking my Rebecca Minkoff bag to the beach. But if Angie can paint in pearls then I can beach walk in RM.</p> <p>JAileen, thanks. Yes, the cockatoo is wild. I think he is used to being fed by visitors at the house. He had a partner too. And they were both quite tame. I think that cockatoos mate for life, so it was very sweet. Ms B once befriended a cockatoo in the wild and she was willing to do so again, but these 2 weren't interested. And funny how dogs enjoy rolling in stinky stuff, isn't it? Ms B did roll in the sand, but there was a hose at the entrance to the beach where we could hose her off at the end of a visit.</p> <p>Sara, thanks. The quarantine restrictions are a pain here too. We have never taken a dog outside the country.&nbsp;</p> <p>MJ, thanks. I agree with you!</p> <p>Smittie, thanks. I can imagine that these pics look good to those of you coming out of winter. Especially if you have had some -40 degree days. I cannot imagine those sort of temps.</p> <p>And thanks Sterling, Isabel, Lyn and Kathie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898207 Tue, 13 Mar 2018 16:53:16 +0000 Anonymous 1898207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Smittie </b>-- I always imagined you in <u>Maine</u>. &nbsp;I have no idea why though. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898204 Tue, 13 Mar 2018 16:49:54 +0000 Anonymous 1898204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, it is beautiful there.

I bet Ms B enjoyed it too. Your outfits are perfect, especially the shorts and hat! Is the cockatoo wild?</p> <p>Years ago we had a labrador retriever. We took her to the beach as much as possible (we lived on the TX Gulf Coast). She loved it, of course. She also loved to roll in dead fish. Luckily we had a truck with a camper shell so we didn’t have to smell her on the way home. And then we had to bathe her so she didn’t stink to high heaven. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898162 Tue, 13 Mar 2018 14:29:22 +0000 rachylou 1898162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, one Ms B was a very lucky dog! I have to say, you look extremely different on the beach: I wouldn’t have known it was you. Lol. But your style remains true </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898138 Tue, 13 Mar 2018 13:28:10 +0000 Suz 1898138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Brooklyn</b>, you look gorgeous.

Mrs. B looks like she is having so much fun!</p> <p>Love your formula for casual -- the sneakers look good!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/at-the-beach#post-1898136 Tue, 13 Mar 2018 13:23:08 +0000 lyn67 1898136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How exciting and&nbsp; beautiful!
