And that pink bag pairs nicely the dress. I have found with packing, I rarely regret taking extras. Sometimes, weather changes despite one's best attempts to plan. Also, I've had challenges traveling in the past and ended up connecting in countries not on my original itinerary. Not saying this will happen to you, but you just never know with air travel now-a-days. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367681 Mon, 12 Aug 2024 14:52:16 +0000 cat2 2367681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about your feet? I tend to err on the side of bringing a lot of shoes, as my feet like variety, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367672 Mon, 12 Aug 2024 13:58:24 +0000 Jenny H 2367672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a well-thought out packing job! I don't do this much planning for my travel but I very much admire it. I also think you look fantastic in your outfits. My particular favorite is the lobster skirt with blue shirt.</p> <p>Have a great time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367669 Mon, 12 Aug 2024 13:17:35 +0000 RobinF 2367669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh fun! I must have missed your original post about your trip. </p> <p>I would take as much of the outer wear as you can fit. I find on trips like this that I wear jackets and fleece a lot and sometimes for all day. If I don't have a few options I get very tired of the ones that I have.&nbsp;</p> <p>Enjoy your trip!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367648 Mon, 12 Aug 2024 00:02:41 +0000 Cee 2367648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Always take a sweater or a hoodie just in case the weather unexpectedly cools down and I hope you have a wonderful trip :D&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367645 Sun, 11 Aug 2024 23:57:54 +0000 Jaime 2367645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This post made me smile. I don't do this much planning for trips, but I am definitely prone to taking multiple mirror selfies when I am trying to edit my closet. Looks to me like you are all set. Have a wonderful trip! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367644 Sun, 11 Aug 2024 22:52:26 +0000 Angie 2367644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And have a beautiful and safe trip!!!

Soooo New England You manage to choose patterns that work PERFECTLY with your &nbsp;awesome streaked pink hair! Impressive :)</p> <p>To answer your questions - YES! I'd pack all four items in #10 and #11.&nbsp;</p> <p>No matter how much you plan up front, you end up wearing more or less of something that you pack. It's just the way it goes!! I believe in options. Sooooo, hence my suggestion to take it all.&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367639 Sun, 11 Aug 2024 20:15:26 +0000 JAileen 2367639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I always take extra clothes for just in case (spilling, sweating, mud, etc.), so of course I think your plan is smart. &nbsp;On our South Texas birding trip in February, my husband had the actual forecast rather than just the average temps, for the day of the boat trip. &nbsp;The result was I had warm clothes while other people on the boat didn’t. &nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367637 Sun, 11 Aug 2024 18:16:05 +0000 Karie 2367637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Suz! I have 16 shirts, one for each day plus 2 extras. I am following your jet lag advice, but was unable to get out in the sun the first day because we didn’t have any (thanks to Hurricane Debby). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367636 Sun, 11 Aug 2024 17:54:05 +0000 Suz 2367636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Karie </b>-- yay! Bon voyage! I had to chuckle at your obsessive outfit planning. I *definitely* do this for trips, yes! Not every trip, but every trip where I'm packing for air travel. And it helps. Like you, I often end up wearing slightly different outfits than I hope or planned, but the options are there for various weather conditions. For instance, when we went to England, I had hoped and expected to wear a skirt outfit for Mr. Suz's birthday dinner. But then it was cool and raining hard that night. Luckily, I had long wide leg trousers with me that worked with the same festive top.&nbsp;</p> <p>This looks like plenty of bottoms for the trip. I'm less sure on tops since I don't know how many you've got, but if you can wash some by hand and air dry, that will be no problem, regardless, since they are all very mix and matchable with your bottoms. If it were me, I'd bring the extra coat if I had room -- just because, you never know! But if you are short on room, let it go.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>LOVE </b>your dress/skirt WIWs. So pretty on you!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lately-nas-and-all-packed-for-switzerland#post-2367632 Sun, 11 Aug 2024 17:42:36 +0000 Karie 2367632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My big questions are at the end, so if you don’t want to fall asleep reading this entire post you can skip to that!</p> <p>Just some recent casual summer outfits. #1 is the newest, I just love fun prints like the lobster print on this skirt. #2 is a dress I purchased last summer, not the most flattering but another fun summer print. #3 is how I wore it in the arctic ac at church, and #4 is different ways to tie it (I like it best tied in back like in #2).<br /> Everything is from my favorite retailer, J Crew/J Crew Factory except the skirt in #5, that’s from an online company called RBX Active.</p> <p>We leave for Switzerland tomorrow! I took all your advice from my previous post, have followed your packing advice and advice on how to reduce jet lag. Thank you! #6 and #7 is what I ended up packing - 1 skirt, 2 pairs of capris, 3 pairs of long pants, and assorted tops to go with. All of the long sleeved tops pictured have tabs to turn the sleeves into 3/4 sleeves. Colors are blues, pinks, white.<br /> The skirt is a RipSkirt, capris and pants are INC from Macy’s, most long sleeve tops are Eddie Bauer, the two pink ones are J Crew and Tommy Hilfiger. </p> <p>#6-#9 are my out-of-control travel anxiety planning with outfit try ons, outfit charts, a weather chart and what I’ll wear each day. Do any of you do this? The outfit charts are helpful , but I seldom stick to the daily plan, and the daily weather is usually wrong.</p> <p>Now for my questions: #10 and 11 are the outerwear I’m planning to bring. The Navy coat is an Eddie Bauer raincoat, and the pink jacket is a Columbia packable. #11 is an Eddie Bauer fleece, and a white sweater from Amazon. Do I really need all of this? I could not bring the EB raincoat (it’s not packable and I’ll have to carry it around if I don’t need it) and just wear the fleece under the pink rain jacket (packable) if it’s cold.<br /> Also, #6 - #11 - how does this look for 14 days away (remember all the long sleeve shirts tab up to shorter sleeves) ?<br /> Your advice, suggestions, and comments are greatly appreciated! </p>
