The high collar seems very current. I have been wanting to try a shirt in that style, but got to work on my arms! What a beautiful place you got to see.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-it-up#post-2333171 Tue, 01 Aug 2023 17:40:33 +0000 Helena 2333171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning spot Suz, and you know, it would be nice to have those photos, but then if you were taking them, perhaps you wouldn't have *been* there quite as much as you were xx</p> <p>Excellent capsule, beautiful blues to harmonize with the sky and ocean! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-it-up#post-2333169 Tue, 01 Aug 2023 17:37:18 +0000 Suz 2333169@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Cardiff Girl </b>-- a flicker is a woodpecker variant or relative.&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.audubon.org/field-guide/bird/northern-flicker">https://www.audubon.org/field-.....rn-flicker</a></p> <p>I'm not sure you have them in the UK or EU...they are bold and noisy creatures but quite interesting to observe. The one I saw was a red-shafted flicker (more common in the west) and a youthful one, from his markings.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-it-up#post-2333063 Mon, 31 Jul 2023 23:35:06 +0000 Barbara Diane 2333063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautiful spot!

Nobody bothers you at all. I <i>could</i> be completely unplugged there but in fact it has wireless and I needed it for work purposes. Despite having access to internet, I managed to get a lot of work done. And a lot of thinking, planning, research as well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-it-up#post-2332986 Mon, 31 Jul 2023 15:55:02 +0000 RobinF 2332986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, gorgeous view!

You look fab ...&nbsp; and match the environment. What an effortless sophistication!&nbsp; .&nbsp; Agree with <b>Dee</b> about the sunglasses. I like very much your tankini (color and shape). It actually looks very comfortable too. I wish I could find a bikini made like that. It seems to have been a happy and relaxed vacation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-it-up#post-2332901 Mon, 31 Jul 2023 06:08:37 +0000 slim cat 2332901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful place and wonderful vacation!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-it-up#post-2332884 Mon, 31 Jul 2023 01:44:05 +0000 Jaime 2332884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a beautiful and tranquil setting for your work Suz!

The one with the high neckline has built in side boning and underwire for support and it works. I am not what you would call a vigorous swimmer so keep that in mind. And this is ocean swimming, not laps in a pool. But in this suit, I felt "locked and loaded" as we sometimes say here. Also well protected from sun on my chest, which I like.&nbsp;</p> <p>The blue suit offers less support. It has optional pads which I took out because they felt fussy. As a halter style, it worked well enough for me with my relatively small chest -- it's quite adjustable.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-it-up#post-2332879 Mon, 31 Jul 2023 00:51:30 +0000 Carla 2332879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh! &nbsp;Love your swimsuits. &nbsp;How would you rate them for comfort? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-it-up#post-2332876 Mon, 31 Jul 2023 00:45:31 +0000 Dee 2332876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like my kind of vacation, tranquil with lovely sunsets too. Love your sunglasses, they look terrific on you, and I&nbsp;see you're enjoying a decidedly blue themed vacation capsule.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-it-up#post-2332872 Mon, 31 Jul 2023 00:30:24 +0000 Suz 2332872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In the keeping it real tradition.... WIW for the last two weeks.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm just back from a 10 day working retreat at a friend's oceanside cabin. Preceded by two days in Vancouver visiting friends. Activities included sitting on my bum writing or trying to write. reading, hiking in the woods, and swimming. Visits with friends included at-home suppers, watching butoh dancers on the beach, listening to the tail end of the folk fest. And more hiking and swimming.&nbsp;</p> <p>In other words, this was super-casual.&nbsp;</p> <p>No outfit pics because no mirrors. But I will say, I wore every item I brought (most more than once), I did hand laundry for undies and a stained top. It rained for a day and a half, so I did need the raincoat. I also had sun hat and sunnies, of course!&nbsp;</p> <p>I wish I had photos of the hummingbird on the branches of the old apple tree, the eagle snatching a fish from the waves, and the flicker who came up on the porch with me and initiated quite a conversation from less than a foot away.&nbsp; </p>
