Often seen on the streets of Oslo, hehe;) I second Helly Hansen as a very good brand. An alternative is Stormberg, or Norheim, which is available at a somewhat lower price point. Be prepared to spend most of your money on a very good jacket, you will be very pleased that you did in the end. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725591 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 19:11:08 +0000 jayne 725591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here is an idea of the hat Ingunn means....you should try a sport store for a rain jacket for the coming cold...and ask for help. They will help you for real. norwegians do sports in all weather so they know how to dress and you will need help that irst winter. Some brands, like Helly Hansen, have been making sleek city style weather proof clothing that I highly recommend. It will be expensive but should last you for years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725406 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 16:18:59 +0000 Anonymous 725406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always love black and white, mix it with browns for fall. I'm also really loving cobalt this year, and leopard print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725398 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 16:05:48 +0000 eperdu 725398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are some ideas for me for fall ... I wear a lot of black/gray normally, so I'm going to add some navy and brighter blue as well as more turquoise/teal which I look good in. Plum is also a good choice for me. I don't really change my colors for the season. That said, looking at the colors for Fall this year gave me some ideas on brighter versions of my colors rather than the more muted ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725163 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 11:26:27 +0000 ramya 725163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bang on Ingunn... Trust me the day I speak Norwegian like you speak English I would do a dance of joy anywhere I am </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725162 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 11:23:32 +0000 Ingunn 725162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I mean a slouchy, woolen hat or beret of some kind - not so sure of all the English names for hats:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725159 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 11:17:37 +0000 ramya 725159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Ingunn... By hat you mean some kind of bonnet I assume??? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725155 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 11:11:50 +0000 Ingunn 725155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What they said:)</p> <p>Norway is cold sometimes, but Stavanger is more wet and windy than freezing cold, I think. Layering is good, and you might need something waterproof for outerwear. Good shoes/boots are necessary, and scarf, gloves and a hat. You will be able to wear a lot of your excisting wardrobe with thights, and I also recommend buying a thin wool t-shirt (short or long sleeves) to wear next to your skin. You can layer whatever you like on top of them, and then you have more possibilities since you can change the outer layer with whatever you already have. Look for the Pierre Robert brand in Rimi, Rema 1000 etc. These are reasonably priced and of good quality. Wash it with Milo:) It eliminates the bulk from thicker sweaters and keeps you warm. </p> <p>You can wear red, blue, yellow, rust, olive, black etc - it's entirely up to you. MaryK, I love your outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725151 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 10:47:38 +0000 rute 725151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, you are perfectly prepared!<br /> Red is BIG this fall, so as cobalt blue, navy blue, mostard yellow and burgudy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725139 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 10:07:55 +0000 Jjsloane 725139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you are without a lot of sun in winter I would try to keep it bright. If you want to keep your colors in scarves and knitwear to accent neutrals that would look great too. I'm planning a lot of navy, brown, black and grey, but I have brights to accent and some skirts and printed tops (nothing as stunning as MaryK though) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725124 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 09:33:29 +0000 Astrid 725124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ramya, I also wear most of my clothes year round. I have two skirts and some shorts that don't really work when it's cold, but everything else gets worn. I just layer! It's much more fun to use all the colors you want and like you said, you can add some mandatory winter wears. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725118 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 08:14:15 +0000 MsMary 725118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay!!

I got what you are saying...<br /> I do not need to wear black and Navy all winter... I can and will wear colours.. I can wear all most all my clothes with the addition of thermals and other mandatory winter wears </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725115 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 08:07:47 +0000 MsMary 725115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah.

I moved from sunny India to here... It's my first ever winter here </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725113 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 07:56:42 +0000 MsMary 725113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Where do you live, Ramya? I live in sunny So Cal and I dress for the weather rather than the calendar! If it's warm and sunny outside I have no problem wearing my bright colors and floral prints all winter long! And you can "winterize" your bright pieces with neutrals or darks, too!</p> <p>Here are some examples from last fall and winter. These are all from Oct through Dec of last year! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/colors-for-fall-what-are-you-planning#post-725109 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 07:52:50 +0000 ramya 725109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Frankly I am a little worried I have all bright summery colors. Floral prints and so on so forth... Are these a total no no??? </p>
