Welcome to the forum. <br />Is this a capsule for work?<br />I notice you only have three blouses: will you wear a blouse everyday? Even if the sweater is a non cardigan-type sweater, you still only have four tops. You might want to look for a bit more.&nbsp;Will you do laundry more than 1x a week?<br />You're off to a great start. Love your palette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-to-capsules#post-1332977 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 01:39:07 +0000 purple8 1332977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very good advice on the chocolate and patterns. Thank you! As far as accessories, I don't really know. I have a variety of gold necklaces, variety of pearl stuff. I have a few belts that would work with these (leopard, cognac, gold.) Open to suggestions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-to-capsules#post-1332972 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 01:29:33 +0000 carter 1332972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds fabulous to me! I love the warm neutrals with the cool colors. Maybe another patterned item or two so you're not always color blocking. What are you planning for accessories? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-to-capsules#post-1332960 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 01:15:23 +0000 Sal 1332960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome to the forum!!<br />It sounds like you are making some great plans. &nbsp;I don't really have a capsule wardrobe myself but I will offer my limited knowledge.</p> <p>It does sound very coordinated and I love the colours you have chosen. &nbsp;I do wonder if there is too much cream and camel in it - would a chocolate item or two work, or maybe even navy blue? &nbsp;I might be tempted to have a chocolate pair of trousers in the mix instead of one of the lighter pairs.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-to-capsules#post-1332950 Sun, 17 Aug 2014 01:05:47 +0000 purple8 1332950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never planned a capsule before; in fact I don't think I knew it was a "thing" prior to stalking this site.</p> <p>I'm 36 and work in a business casual environment (people wear everything from frumpy dockers to dressy suits.) Due to weight loss and job change, I am starting from scratch for a fall/winter wardrobe.</p> <p>Does this look like a good start? I appreciate any feedback or help. I haven't bought this stuff yet--just trying to build a list. </p> <p>Bottoms:<br /> Cream pencil skirt<br /> Cream pants (trouser-y style)<br /> Camel pleated skirt<br /> Camel pants<br /> Deep red or purple cigarette pants</p> <p>Coat:<br /> Camel trench</p> <p>Tops:<br /> Deep red sleeveless top (bought)<br /> Deep red or patterned drapey blouse<br /> Purple-ish blouse<br /> Big soft camel sweater<br /> Cream blazer<br /> Cream blouse</p> <p>Other stuff:<br /> Gold watch<br /> Deep lipstick </p>
