I'm really thinking 2 coats will be a good idea since that's what will be seen mostly in the pictures.&nbsp; And what about my gear???&nbsp; Ugh, those trainers are big and bulky but I'm wearing my tall boots on the plane so they'll have to fit in there too, or I've got to find another way to work out (in bare feet...)</p> <p>&nbsp;I'm bringing another suitcase but it will be full of my daughters fall/winter clothing as she's moving over there at the end of the summer and I'm going to be a good mommy and give up packing space to help her out...</p> <p>She's not fooled though, she KNEW that would mean I'll have an empty suitcase coming back...Can't have that! Must fill it up...LOL!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974597 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 16:43:51 +0000 kkards 974597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>your list was so well thought out- everything fit together so well! i always think i will get myself organized and have a put together travel capsule, but it never seems to go that way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974568 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 15:45:53 +0000 Sara L. 974568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love packing capsule posts too!&nbsp; I have no trips planned other than camping trips, but I'm hoping that I'll learn from reading these posts so when I do have a trip, I'll be a better packer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974487 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 14:03:37 +0000 lyn67 974487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love capsule threads, your's is beyond fabulous!!!

I'm another one who soaks up packing posts and yours is a treasure trove of good advice. I am studying it closely in preparation for my upcoming trip. I am so in awe of how chic, yet functional, your capsule is. You have mastered the art of stylish travel! Thanks for your offer of restaurant suggestions in your earlier post. PM'ing you now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974434 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 12:41:56 +0000 Parsley 974434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for showing us how it's done, Suz!<br /> That is a SUPERB travel capsule and I love that it incorporates plenty of color. I pack light, but I usually do it by going with almost nothing but neutrals. You've inspired me to try to take more color on my next trip. I may be a shameless copycat and use cobalt as one of my colors! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974397 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 11:05:43 +0000 Suz 974397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone! To paraphrase the inimitable MaryK, <i>I felt super happy about the way this capsule turned out.&nbsp;</p> <p></i>I had a bit more than I'd normally have taken for such a short trip. But lack of certainty about weather and activities made me want to bring more rather than less. I knew in the heat (and possible rainstorms) I would need changes of clothes.&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Nadya, you are so right that this shows the value of a coherent colour plan. Sticking to a few key colours was key, because just as Manidipam says, this allowed a colour (cobalt) to function as a neutral. I find I'm really enjoying that this season.&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Eliza, I was super comfortable! The heat didn't seem as bad as we'd expected. It was hot, certainly....but no hotter than it gets at home, and we had air conditioning in our place, which is more than we have at home. So for us it was bearable.&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Thanks, Columbine! We have similar colour favourites.&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Beth Ann, I should have known you would like it, full as it is of cobalt! :-)&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Sarah, tops are a major problem of mine as well, so I put on a truly concerted search this spring to find a few more flattering ones. I'm pretty pleased with the styles I eventually settled on. I now understand more what I need to be looking for.&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Thanks, BJ! Since I had more than I actually needed, I think I could have gone at least another week without getting bored here. Actually, this is pretty much the contents of my summer wardrobe, apart from a few more casual items and some longer-sleeved shirts, so no wonder I say that, LOL.&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Carolbee, thank you, and I agree -- the amount of clothes I brought could have done for a much longer holiday, and really were excessive for my actual time frame. I wish you luck for your long vacation. I agree completely that the biggest challenge is packing for widely varied weather conditions in one smal suitcase. I find that super, super difficult. Please post your ideas for us and we'll help with feedback.&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Lyn, one of these days you will be on your own trip! It will happen!&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Angie, thank you for that title! I will wear it proudly along with my sandals.&nbsp;<br /><i><br /></i>Thanks, Caro, Elle, Shevia, Ceit, Pil, Merwoman!<i><br /></i> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974393 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 10:52:32 +0000 Anonymous 974393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great capsule!

Thank very much for sharing this, Suz. That's one great capsule and I really appreciate the visual of what you fit in your carryon. Thank you, thank you!</p> <p>P.S. your post really shows the value in having color themes in your wardrobe. I know when I started doing that many years ago, packing got a lot easier because my clothes mixed and matched fairly easily. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974279 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 05:14:48 +0000 ManidipaM 974279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another inhaler of packing and capsule posts, and I had actually been *looking* for this one from you! Thank you!</p> <p>This is absolutely inspirational. You look gorgeous, eyecatching and understated all at once. CHIC!</p> <p>And I love how much colour and fun and pattern you incorporated! The cobalt is so stunningly flattering, yet due to the coherence of your capsule, also behaves as a neutral! Such fun. Looking at these I now think everyone needs a signature colour or two like that for FFBO items.</p> <p>Very masterful, exciting colour coordination too. No wonder you are turning heads and catching the camera lenses!</p> <p>This is especially impressive given the uncertainty about weather and activities.</p> <p>Thanks again for sharing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974259 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 04:40:28 +0000 Eliza 974259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great capsule and fun to see the items laid out as well as on in beautiful outfits. Quite an achievement if you were comfortable in New York, especially last week! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974227 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 03:48:04 +0000 columbine(erin) 974227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love travel capsule posts and yours is beautiful!

And I'm so jealous of your summer top collection! It's such a struggle for me...You look terrific, from head to toe. LOVE the new sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974153 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 02:35:27 +0000 bj1111 974153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>suz, this is such a tight capsule and can be stretched to a few weeks if you didn't get bored! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974131 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 02:22:46 +0000 carolbee 974131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Suz, I am one of those people that just about inhale packing posts as a dedicated carry on only person Great capsule, it is amazing how much you can fit in a carry-on. I understand that you took some extra items as you were unsure of your actual activities, but its interesting as this amount of clothes would actually be enough for just about any length holiday (assuming its not going to be super cold).</p> <p>My next challenge will be July next year when we will be in Europe, probably a couple of weeks in Italy, where I am hoping the weather will be warm, followed by a 10 day cruise around Spitsbergen, where it will be freezing. Our trip to Bali and Flores later this month will be a breeze, as only need warm weather clothes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/in-the-bag-ny-trip-capsule-pic-heavy#post-974119 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 02:15:13 +0000 lyn* 974119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much for posting this Suz!
