I sympathise with travelling light, I really dislike doing so myself and try to avoid it as shoes (especially boots) take up so much room in a case. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nyc-travel-capsule-outfits#post-2001031 Mon, 11 Feb 2019 12:06:44 +0000 Style Fan 2001031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>La Ped, The Boden cashmere appears to be of wonderful quality.&nbsp; I have worn it many times in the last 3 weeks while traveling and it has not piled.&nbsp; It drapes beautifully.&nbsp; I am more RATE than Boden.&nbsp; That is the best way to explain it.<br />Katerina, thank you!&nbsp; Such a lovely thing to say.&nbsp; It is hard to be stylish in winter weather.<br />Lisa p, I love NYC in the winter too.&nbsp; Well, I love NYC anytime but only for short periods.&nbsp; It is an intense city.&nbsp; #2 is my favourite outfit as well.&nbsp; I love that SP sweater.&nbsp; The black jeans are becoming a favourite too.<br />Taylor, my feet are extremely problematic and fussy.&nbsp; I won't go into all the problems I have with them but the list is long.&nbsp; My footwear is very limited.&nbsp; The El Nat boots are comfortable but after walking on sidewalks for days nothing is going to work for me.&nbsp; It is hard to be stylish in the winter and it is cold.&nbsp; Not as cold as where I come from though.<br />Brooklyn, I have heard the High Line can get very crowded.&nbsp; It was a warm day and hardly anyone was there.&nbsp; Thank goodness. &nbsp;<br />Sal, NYC is a fun city.&nbsp; Lots to do.&nbsp; Intense!<br />Joy, I know footwear takes up so much room.&nbsp; Both Mr SF and I have a suitcase for our shoes when we travel.<br />JAileen, I prefer not to travel light.&nbsp; Very stressful.<br />Suz, we had a great time.&nbsp; Mr. SF junior and his husband live in the center of the action of NYC in a cool apartment.&nbsp; They knew of some nice restaurants, etc.</p> <p>Jane, I love that scarf.&nbsp; I was pretty happy when I found it. &nbsp;</p> <p>C.
