Thumbs up for the bags and toppers too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1662140 Mon, 16 May 2016 15:17:16 +0000 Chris987 1662140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Toppers and bags, as requested. I have the denim jacket in blue and white...when I'm ready to replace them will look for more modern silhouettes like the Kut from the Kloth ones I've seen here. My red nylon tote is last year's color more of a true red...the find below is this year's color more tomato. And I have a purple zip up sweatshirt a little darker than the one below with ruching up the front that I use as a casual topper.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660980 Sat, 14 May 2016 10:07:05 +0000 Sally 1660980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto ...the tops in 1, 3 and 4 work really well with those jeans.&nbsp; The colour and lace in 3 is really pretty.&nbsp; It would work well with a nice long&nbsp;necklace in my opinion.&nbsp; My 26 year old niece who used to work in a dress shop is always telling me to wear long necklaces to elongate&nbsp;my outfits so I try to do&nbsp;that when I remember.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660873 Sat, 14 May 2016 02:49:12 +0000 Ledonna N. 1660873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Curves are made for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660783 Fri, 13 May 2016 23:53:03 +0000 Momo 1660783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 1, 3 and 4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660674 Fri, 13 May 2016 19:42:43 +0000 Suz 1660674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you don't have a black top, navy or ink will do the same work for you with those sandals. In fact you might prefer it. The sandals will also work with the dark jeans.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love the Eccos, by the way.&nbsp;</p> <p>Both tops in 3 and 4 are lovely on you!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660667 Fri, 13 May 2016 19:38:50 +0000 rachylou 1660667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jeans are great and I LOVE the curved hems of 1, 3, &amp; 4. You are reminding me how well curved hems work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660525 Fri, 13 May 2016 16:03:52 +0000 BrieN 1660525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! you look great. I really like the white top - especially with the two layers the way they are. It looks light and airy. Great job with the patterned tops - both long sleeved an short sleeved choices. &nbsp;You have some great shoes as well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660524 Fri, 13 May 2016 15:54:37 +0000 Chris987 1660524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanks for the comments! </p> <p>Angie, good idea, I am still looking for a good black blouse/top but have a few "ok" ones that would work for the moment. </p> <p>Summer, yes I think I do, will have to go look and post some pics. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660463 Fri, 13 May 2016 14:26:03 +0000 Summer 1660463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have the makings of a really good capsule here, Chris.&nbsp; 3 &amp; 4 are my favourites because those flowy tops suit you beautifully.&nbsp; The blue suede shoes and the silver sandals are perfect with these looks, and I love the new skinnies on you.<br />I agree with Kelly that the lavender sweater is not quite as special as the other tops, but definitely not a bad look, and a good colour for you.<br />Do you have a topper or two, and a bag that will work with your capsule?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660458 Fri, 13 May 2016 14:21:54 +0000 Angie 1660458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done, Chris.&nbsp;</p> <p>Both pair of jeans look <b>great</b>.&nbsp;</p> <p>Try a black top with #2 to pull together the colour of the sandals.&nbsp;</p> <p>You nailed it in #4. FABULOUS.</p> <p>#3 is super cute too. I wouldn't worry about the uneven layers of the top.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660428 Fri, 13 May 2016 13:44:16 +0000 kellygirl 1660428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 1,3 and 5. Column of color in 1 is very flattering and so are the blousy boho styles of 3 and 4. Really fab looks on you! 2 is fine but the tops pales in comparison with the others.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/first-attempt-at-a-capsule-spring-casual#post-1660423 Fri, 13 May 2016 13:35:00 +0000 Chris987 1660423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is my first attempt at a very small capsule. Pulled out some spring casual items and made some outfits.&nbsp;This is much harder than I expected but I think I've made some progress. &nbsp;</p> <p>#1 grey straight leg&nbsp;jeans, blue/grey top, blue suede espadrilles</p> <p>#2 same jeans, a lavender sweater, black gladiators. I like the color of the sweater,&nbsp;but&nbsp; not&nbsp;the shape and it&nbsp;seems&nbsp;very uninteresting I think I will return it.&nbsp; Love the sandals but would probably work better with darker pants.</p> <p>#3 new skinny jeans, white tunic, blue suede espadrilles. The front edge of this tunic is two layers but it seems a little odd like the outer layer needs to be shortened&nbsp;up a little. </p> <p>#4 same jeans, print blouse, ecco silver sandals. These&nbsp;sandals are super comfortable thinking they will be a workhorse now that it's finally warm enough. They are similar to the ones Angie posted in todays' blog but with a bit more "strappage" on the instep. </p> <p>Would love to hear your thoughts! </p>
