I am always impressed by how cohesive some members wardrobes and styles are, so I appreciate the feedback. This is my first year really trying to plan ahead as opposed to making a ton of impulse purchases throughout the season.</p> <p>BethT, I love statement jewelry and am on the hunt for some new pieces, but nothing's caught me eye yet.</p> <p>Vix, a mini-capsule is great way to describe this. If I were traveling causally, I'd just want to pack it all. Maybe that's how I should approach my entire closet...</p> <p>Suz, bottoms were my issue last year. I have two pairs of jeans that still fit and hope to add a pair of flare, so hopefully that's enough. I've realized I don't actually need a dozen pairs so much as half a dozen that I really love.</p> <p>Manny, planning like this is new for me too! Here's hoping it works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1550069 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 07:12:26 +0000 Maneera 1550069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What gorgeous colours, Dee! I love love love the boots, the bag and the coat. I love the boots so much I may have to hunt down something similar! They're perfect in EVERY SENSE! </p> <p>The whole capsule looks very cohesive. I wish I could be this planned! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1550012 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 03:46:56 +0000 Suz 1550012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the burgundy boots! Those will be really fun.&nbsp;</p> <p>Your capsule looks very cohesive. Does it give you enough bottoms for the fall season? I suppose you'll be adding this to other items already in the closet, in which case no worries.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the blues and berries, here.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549988 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 02:59:34 +0000 Vix 1549988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Dee --</p> <p>Really can just echo all the comments above. You obviously put a lot of thought into each purchase! </p> <p>Personally I love when my new purchases make a mini-capsule (don't know that I'll achieve it this F/W so I'll live through you. ;)</p> <p>The only add I might suggest -- if it would get enough use -- is another cozy scarf. I know you have the black one, but I find a print and/or color-color option can be cheerful in the winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549984 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 02:56:19 +0000 unfrumped 1549984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm loving the rich color palette and how things appear to go together so well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549943 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 01:20:21 +0000 carter 1549943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic collection of items. It looks like you refreshed all the key categories, and everything looks like it belongs in the same wardrobe. Excellent! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549934 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 01:03:55 +0000 Anonymous 1549934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Variety, especially in a small wardrobe seems so important and you have it. I'm looking forward to seeing the outfits on you when it gets cooler. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549926 Wed, 02 Sep 2015 00:48:50 +0000 Anonymous 1549926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess the question is: Do these new pieces take you in the right style direction? They all look very nice together. Certainly very cohesive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549805 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 20:33:47 +0000 BethT 1549805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did you have a question in there? &nbsp;Sorry...too busy coveting those Steve Madden booties to think! &nbsp;</p> <p>I think you have some great pieces in there and I love the mix of colors you have going. &nbsp;I don't see anything that sticks out as not belonging. &nbsp; At this point, maybe you can just add some small accessories to add variety if you are in the mood to shop. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549799 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 20:23:19 +0000 Jenn 1549799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All the new items look great together! I love those burgundy boots. From what I see, your new items cover a wide variety of needs, so they should help you feel fresh and pulled-together under any circumstance! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549705 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 17:08:27 +0000 Dee 1549705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eva, thanks. I've never gone through and snapped pics of my entire wardrobe, but most of my regular pieces probably got a WIW at some point of another last winter. Lots of sweaters, sweater dresses and anything I can with boots. :)</p> <p>Some of these are outside my usual color palette, but sometimes that's fun, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549703 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 17:06:07 +0000 Dee 1549703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cerinda, good questions! I (like many) wear a lot of skinnies tucked into boots in the winter. Also dress + leggings + boots on the weekends. So new skinnies and dresses/long sweaters that can work with that is always a big need for me. I'm hoping some of the tops will work with flares too though, if I ever find some that fit. The weather gets cold enough that anything that isn't a sweater will need a topper, but I have some that will hopefully work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549700 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 17:04:30 +0000 E 1549700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everything plays together so nicely! It's tricky to answer your last questions without knowing what's already in your f/w closet though. I like that the jeans are such different colours, so you can get very different looks from them. And there looks to be a nice variety of textures/colours/patterns over all. So I imagine you're pretty much set, other than that pair of flares! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549684 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 16:52:06 +0000 Cerinda 1549684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks really cogent. &nbsp;Great color range, nicely versatile. &nbsp;Does this hit the silhouette you're after? &nbsp;Cover your weather? &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-refresh-capsule#post-1549638 Tue, 01 Sep 2015 16:24:45 +0000 Dee 1549638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I've been trying to be better about planning my purchases this year, and also shopping less frequently. I decided to lay out all of my fall purchases to see where I'm at for the upcoming season. Can we tell I'm ready for summer to end? These are a combination of recent purchases and some end of season sale purchases from spring/summer that I've been holding out for a chance to wear. </p> <p>I'd love to get your thoughts/opinions on my fall capsule. I mostly live in jeans and sweaters when the weather cools. My dominant fall/winter colors are purple/aubergine and heather grey, with a few navy and olive pieces. I branched out a little this year but am hoping these pieces will still work well with my current wardrobe. </p> <p>1) Overall pieces<br /> 2) Jeans. Paige blue and Madewell grey skinnies. I put on some weight last winter and had two pairs of jeans that fit. The extra skinnies, especially the grey, give me a little more variety. Still looking to add flares if I can find the right pair.<br /> 3) Tops. Joie pink sweater to add some color variety. Loft plaid button-down for warmer days. AllSaints cobalt silk tee for my dressy capsule.<br /> 4) Dresses. Everlane shirt dress and Gap oversized tee dress. Both both in the summer but I'm planning to wear with leggings and boots in the fall.<br /> 5) Shoes. Ugg slipper flats (bought back in May?) and Steve Madden booties. I have a pair of black booties and black tall boots, so this gives me some variety.<br /> 6) NAS purchases. Michael Kors trench for transitional weather and MZ Wallace bag. I love that the bag has a strap as well as handles. My winter coats are light grey and white.</p> <p>And not shown outside of the overall image: Black knee length sweatshirt/dress for casual wear and black Everlane infinity scarf.</p> <p>Layed out, it looks like a lot but not too much in any single category (I think). Anything you would get rid of or think doesn't work? Anything I'm sorely lacking?</p> <p>I also realized I've averaged adding about four pieces a month over the last few months, when I was planning on 2-3, but that still isn't too bad for me. Especially because I don't feel the need to add too much more at the moment. </p> <p>If you got this far, thanks for reading! </p>
