I have a pair of tan linen trousers in size 32 that I'm not using this summer. Nice higher rise with a side zip.

Just wanted to say enjoy Oahu! I love it there, especially at this time of the year.

I echo what Joy said about the temperature and AC.&nbsp;Oahu is pretty casual and you may be taken away with the lovely local prints. Please have a Mai Tai for me at a House without a Key! So beautiful (and delicious).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297387 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 06:15:24 +0000 rachylou 1297387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like you're sorted. How exciting! I'd be so uncreative. Lily Pulitzer and a blue blazer. I default preppy in a panic... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297384 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 05:56:39 +0000 Ornella 1297384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello gorgeous! No advice from me, just wanted to say&nbsp;I've been thinking about you lately.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297359 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 04:49:21 +0000 Beth Ann 1297359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope you have little work and lots of free time!</p> <p>Double thumbs up to tube skirts!&nbsp; I love being able to dress mine up or down! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297315 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 03:36:40 +0000 Amy 1297315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, unfrumped, I'm living the dream, lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297292 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 03:10:55 +0000 unfrumped 1297292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the tube skirt and summery jacket ideas. The GAP linen blend pants are fun as a pants option, too. .</p> <p>This sounds like a capsule I need , or need to need-- the 5-day emergency trip to Oahu capsule. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297280 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 02:48:23 +0000 Suz 1297280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sounds like you actually have a great base, Amy. I love the idea of a tube skirt and/ or cotton jersey or linen jersey dresses -- easy to pack and no worries.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297274 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 02:40:12 +0000 Anonymous 1297274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't forget to pack your swim suit and coverup. Have a great time. It's been awhile since I've been to Hawaii, and never Oahu, but I never encountered any air conditioning. Hotels and other buildings were open to the outdoors and temperatures were lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297238 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 02:01:30 +0000 Amy 1297238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have an orange skirt, a white sleeveless shell and two silk sleeveless tops in aqua and red. I've got the shoes.</p> <p>I like Dana's/Angie's plans. I think I can do something like that.</p> <p>There will be some socializing times, etc., but that's less stressful for me. </p> <p>Thank you, everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297224 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 01:51:11 +0000 Angie 1297224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm thinking knitted tube skirts, knit tops and&nbsp;Summer blazers - because you can get those NOW at Nordies. Online shopping is not an option because you have to pack on Thursday.</p> <p>The telegraph pencil skirt at J.Crew is a good idea too - sufficient length for your long gams.&nbsp;</p> <p>Dresses are a great option, but I worry about the length - and we are between seasons. Actually, you'll be able to wear your Seattle dresses there in arctic a/c.&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297197 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 01:15:34 +0000 Thistle 1297197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, so excited for you! And yes, I can attest to frigid air conditioning all over Hawaii, but most especially in hotels. They are the worst! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297186 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 00:58:39 +0000 ironkurtin 1297186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I suggest </p> <p>- 2 lighter weight, summer dresses that can be dressed up or down. Cotton jersey or linen.&nbsp; J Crew has nice options.<br />- 2 pairs of light capris or long pants.&nbsp; Gap or JCrew.<br />- 3 button-down shirts or nice blouses to wear with the capris.<br />- 2 cardigans you can mix and match over the dresses or blouses<br />- one scarf or wrap<br />- three pairs of shoes: sandals, pumps, casual shoes</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297180 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 00:51:06 +0000 Suz 1297180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Amy -- that's amazing! But what a challenge!&nbsp;</p> <p>First -- do you have <b>ANYTHING</b> that you like that is appropriate? It might be helpful to start with one piece as a base and build a small capsule out from it. And do you know if there will be social time, also? Plus...don't forget the effects of frigid air conditioning. It may be hot outside...but inside is a different story.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297163 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 00:26:18 +0000 Amy 1297163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi angie!</p> <p>I think so. I probably will take a blazer and closed toe shoes...so on the dressier side, but not extremely conservative. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297154 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 00:14:13 +0000 Angie 1297154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun. And great to see you again, Amy.&nbsp;</p> <p>It's biz casual right?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-emegency#post-1297147 Tue, 08 Jul 2014 00:01:32 +0000 Amy 1297147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi ladies! missed you lots! I need your help.</p> <p>At the last minute, my boss sprung the news on me that he needs my help at an arbitration in...Oahu! Now, I'm not complaining about the trip at all, but I somehow have to pull together a wardrobe for 5+ days. I have very little for warm weather. My dresses/ skirts are either too hot or too casual. Same with my skirts.</p> <p>I'm willing to buy things, but they have to be readily available and not too expensive.</p> <p>What would you pack? Can you give me some inspiration/ advice?</p> <p>I'm leaving Friday </p>
