All my plaid pieces so far have sleeves.&nbsp; Summer weight plaid is a wardrobe hole.&nbsp; I like your plaid tops.</p> <p>Rachylou, time and forming outfits will tell if it is complete.&nbsp; </p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1547239 Fri, 28 Aug 2015 04:30:15 +0000 Brooklyn 1547239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would like to see a cross body bag - unless you don't like them!

I think these pieces are going to look great and can't wait to see them in action. You have totally inspired me, I've been pondering what to place in a 'hot autumn' capsule since you mentioned the 5-6 season wardrobe concept last week. </p> <p>How many items total do you think will be in your hot autumn capsule to see you through the end of October? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1547183 Fri, 28 Aug 2015 03:16:03 +0000 Anonymous 1547183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Always trying, I'm looking forward to seeing your travel capsule. I also need to put together a travel capsule for 5-6 days in September. I'm waiting to see what the weather will be like but need to consider my options.<br /> Angie, xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1547063 Fri, 28 Aug 2015 00:13:30 +0000 Angie 1547063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i></i>*happy sigh*&nbsp;<i></i> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1547058 Fri, 28 Aug 2015 00:06:35 +0000 always trying 1547058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>now here is outfit inspiration--if it cools off a bit I will post a couple of my ideas.&nbsp; I am putting together a small 4 day travel capsule for a september trip. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1547051 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 23:44:55 +0000 Anonymous 1547051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm having computer troubles today, so am doing a general reply to avoid having to redo it, I hope.<br /> This is the first time I've addressed the hot autumn days. We will see if this works. I have purposely held back some fall-colored linen to have something different to wear when sick of most of my summer things. We will see how it works out. I am also working on a red and brown capsule and blue and brown.<br /> I'll start pulling from these capsules plus neutrals starting next week and post the outfits. I hope to extend each capsule for cooler weather.<br /> Angie, using the finds and creating finds is a great way to show a capsule and helpful to me to be able to add details in Notes and photos of the pieces in outfits. Thank you so much to you and Greg for creating this feature. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546937 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 20:33:18 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1546937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A great idea and you seem to have a varied selection to make this workable. Now to see it in action... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546929 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 20:17:25 +0000 unfrumped 1546929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love trying to start adding more fall colors even if the temps are still warm. You have some great options there and should be fun for outfit creation.<br />Also related: have at hand "warmer" items (long-sleeved tops in silk, cotton or poly) that seemed too hot for July but work for me in A/C as soon as temps start to moderate even a bit. Sometimes I let this season get ahead of me and then I'm on to warm sweaters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546846 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 18:22:43 +0000 Alassë 1546846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice capsule, Joy. This year I remembered the forum advice from last year to create a fall-in-summer capsule. Definitely needed when fall starts mid-October! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546774 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 16:54:15 +0000 Angie 1546774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Btw, GREAT way to create a capsule. Finds is excellent for that, and my toes are tickled.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546772 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 16:53:11 +0000 Angie 1546772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks good laid out like this, Joy. Nice transition into hot Autumn weather. The proof is in the wearing. Lets see some outfits.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546705 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 15:31:20 +0000 Sara L. 1546705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice capsule!&nbsp; I like your idea of using autumn colors in summery shapes and styles to get the feeling of fall when the temps are still warm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546696 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 15:23:50 +0000 celia 1546696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This capsule is so beautiful, I love the colors and shapes. I think everything goes together and you have here items that will serve you in the temperature ups and downs of early Fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546686 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 15:14:11 +0000 Suz 1546686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a smart idea, Joy! Way to go!!&nbsp;</p> <p>Our "warm" autumn rarely lasts as long and I typically continue to wear my summer things (since our summer is so short) but at the same time I do reach for more autumn tones if I can. What a great reminder to pull something like this together. &nbsp;:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546685 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 15:07:44 +0000 Jenn 1546685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What fun, autumn colors! I can't wait to see these in action, Joy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546664 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 14:48:17 +0000 Word Lily 1546664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not good at capsules, but I've felt the need for hot-weather-clothes-that-still-read-as-fallish or the like, as well. For you, that looks like it's pretty easy to pull off by wearing fall colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/august-challenge-4-make-some-hot-fall-capsules#post-1546658 Thu, 27 Aug 2015 14:40:22 +0000 Anonymous 1546658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This last week of August I find that I desperately need to build some capsules for the hot Autumn days of September and even October. Yesterday I carved out an olive and orange capsule to which I can add white or other neutrals. There are other pieces I can add, such as my orange blazer and white denim jacket and white and olive jeans, when it gets cooler.<br /> These combinations seem to work in my head but may not hold up when actually worn.<br /> Comments and suggestions are welcomed. What else do I need to add? What doesn't belong? </p>
