I've got a pale blue sweater that can be worn with the pastel sundress if it gets cool. ( fixed the link to the black dress.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caribbean-travel-capsulepm-dressing-advice-needed#post-858307 Sun, 24 Feb 2013 08:08:31 +0000 Ingunn 858307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this looks very appropriate too! (the photo in #2 is no longer visible). No danger of mutton dressed as lamb here, as far as I can tell. I second the use of a topper, like a shrug or a pashmina, with #5 when needed, but you don't HAVE to cover up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caribbean-travel-capsulepm-dressing-advice-needed#post-858197 Sun, 24 Feb 2013 02:49:03 +0000 Jjsloane 858197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you have a great balanced capsule here (I'm in awe of your organization). #5 seems consistent with Island life and looks totally appropriate - depending on temps you might want a light pashmina (metallic?) to go with. #2 is lovely on you and a great dressy option - pair with sandals and maybe funky tribal jewelry and you're set. Love the print on your top in 3-4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/caribbean-travel-capsulepm-dressing-advice-needed#post-858189 Sun, 24 Feb 2013 02:24:00 +0000 Carla 858189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DH's university faculty grad class organized a 30th reunion in the Domincan Republic. I expect to spend most of my time in a bathing suit, but there will be some ( fancy) pm events.</p> <p>I have a small fancy dress capsule that is mostly for a cooler climate, but I have 2 dresses that might work. Your opinion please. Have I got an outfit, or do I need to go shopping?</p> <p># 1 travel capsule: 3 bathing suits, cover up tunic with loose Capri pants, striped t's and tank tops, white shorts, yellow skirt, Pucci- esque top, lacey black cardi, black dress, flip flops, open- toe flats, yellow sandals.</p> <p>#2 black dress with open toe flats. Is it too somber for this type of vacation?</p> <p># 3 on the plane. Jean style stretchy pants, BCBG top, DKNY black trench, Steve Madden Chelsea boots, yellow purse I've had for years ( despite the frowny face- happiness factor 10+)</p> <p>#4 change up on the plane. Roll up pants, and switch boots for sandals.</p> <p>#5 pastel cotton sundress with silver threads, Franco Sarto Kailey sandals. I'm concerned this might be too casual, or 'mutton dressed as lamb'? </p>
