Also, I think I’m lucky that they didn’t decide to weigh the bag to see if it was permissible as a carry-on.<br /> Lana, I’m a bit embarrassed that the main thing we used our extended travel time for was eating, but we are so glad to be back home!<br /> Angie, my son is taller than his dad &amp; mine.

I need lessons! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post/page/2#post-2269724 Sun, 03 Jul 2022 23:52:38 +0000 Lana 2269724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like a great trip! Shame about the flight issues but Thanks for the travel updates.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post/page/2#post-2269719 Sun, 03 Jul 2022 21:50:57 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2269719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks BlueJay. Every time we see my dad, it tugs at our heartstrings, and I’m glad to see my son connecting with his cousins. That’s the church I grew up in; the mama pelican above the altar and a stained glass window of Mary going to visit Elizabeth when both are pregnant made impressions on me. No one has ever accused that church or Catholicism in general of being particularly woman-centered, but those are the main design things that stuck with me. </p> <p>After a week at my parents’, we headed off to Boston for orientation, then headed for home immediately afterwards, with a 7:15 flight Friday afternoon. We were headed this way for a long time, got stuck on the way again, but are finally here. Didn’t change my clothes a lot because these shorts &amp; the blackberry sweatshirt were the closest things to warm i had with me. The green shirt is new, and unlikely to be worn with such loose-fitting shorts again. I had the sweatshirt on or tied around my waist most of the time anyway. And yes, this post has morphed entirely from fashion update to travelogue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post/page/2#post-2269132 Wed, 29 Jun 2022 15:42:33 +0000 BlueJay 2269132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great pictures! I love seeing photos of others' families and friends and places. Thank you for sharing! I love your outfit for mass. The colour of tank looks great on you and you do co-ordinate with your dad. Beautiful church too.&nbsp;</p> <p>...the jumpsuit photo in the plane lavatory...haha!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post/page/2#post-2269074 Tue, 28 Jun 2022 20:40:44 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2269074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aw, thanks Angie! My son is 19 &amp; still seems to be growing. :-0 The day I took my dad to Mass, I showed my mom what I was going to put on so she could have him wear something coordinating. She said “too late!” but I think the blue &amp; white windowpane shirt he has on goes well with my skirt. And yes, that’s my big sister, the pretty one, doing those white jeans justice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post/page/2#post-2269067 Tue, 28 Jun 2022 16:50:07 +0000 Angie 2269067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such lovely, lovely family pics!

It was a good visit. </p> <p>Kkards, yes, every time we see my dad, we wonder if its the last. </p> <p>Aquamarine, my son is the last grandchild to start college. Lots of memories. </p> <p>Nikki, yup, family. </p> <p>Thanks Kelly! I’ve always looked just like my dad, body, face, everything. </p> <p>Rachylou, on my phone, that pic is a gif, so we keep walking &amp; walking. </p> <p>I think I brought too much stuff! I’m making myself wear it all (&amp; it isn’t THAT much—it fits in that bag on my back). </p> <p>When we went out to dinner, 6/7 of us wore black &amp; white.</p> <p>The church I grew up in is still Dad’s happy place, but now that he cant drive, he doesn’t get there often. )Mom has a different denomination). </p> <p>My son, my parents &amp; me, just to show that my mom’s here too. She takes care of my dad full-time.</p> <p>I’m getting closer on the bra/jumpsuit issue, but am not there yet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268815 Sun, 26 Jun 2022 17:27:43 +0000 rachylou 2268815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s a really good picture of you and your dad. You should have that one printed.

I think it’s important to step back and smile or have a giggle at the little irritations. </p> <p>Zaeobi, you’re heading back already? Have a safe flight! </p> <p>Thanks Nikki! It’s a kinda crazy pattern mix, but for hanging out at a pool, I’m happy with it. </p> <p>RL and Angie, I’d forgotten what a restful spot my parents had created. We are having a good little respite! </p> <p>Today’s “activity” (I’ve done it with him every day): going for a walk with my dad. Just a quarter mile and then he’s winded. Yesterday’s outfit is here too. Also nothing fancy. As usual, the pattern is away from my face. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268531 Fri, 24 Jun 2022 13:59:30 +0000 BlueJay 2268531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stagiaire, lovely cute blue and white floral skirt and blue tank. Also, the jumpsuit is cute too. I had to laugh at your picture with you making a face and the strap down. Very cute swim top and skirt! Lovely pic of you and your son.&nbsp;</p> <p>Stay safe and have fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268464 Thu, 23 Jun 2022 21:35:01 +0000 Zaeobi 2268464@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No worries, London currently has multiple tube/ train strikes this week, so you're lucky you didn't stick around any longer than one night lol! </p> <p>That'll be me towards the end of next week - going to stay just at my parents' house for about a week before I travel, to help reduce the chance of catching COVID before flying. I'll have to test at HK airport too, so hopefully I don't catch it during my flights either! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268437 Thu, 23 Jun 2022 17:26:04 +0000 Anonymous 2268437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome suit and skirt!

If I’d been able to get in touch with you that fast, I would’ve loved to meet up irl during our chance overnight in London. I had planned to wear a mask on the transatlantic flight, but it was only about 25% full, so I didn’t bother. Now that we are here, we scarcely plan to leave my parents house all week. It’s been hot here too. Good that you are getting your wardrobe sorted out across continents—that’s such a complicated thing to do! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268329 Wed, 22 Jun 2022 23:20:04 +0000 Zaeobi 2268329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahh we were both in the same country but I completely missed this in time - I was even in London on Monday! But yes, I feel you on being able to see family again... You look happy &amp; relaxed! </p> <p>I'm still wearing my mask everywhere, despite the mandate lifting here last week. First thing I did on the plane was disinfect everything around my seat. Wasn't a big deal from HK but on the flight from Dubai to the UK, people did look at me like I was nuts... </p> <p>Haha I packed socks &amp; slippers in my carry-on too but never ended up using either of them Even though I planned my whole black capsule wardrobe, it's been much warmer than expected here - apparently I brought the sunshine with me, despite packing heavy coats &amp; whatnot! Oh well, hopefully that means I'll be ready for winter the next time I come home... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268314 Wed, 22 Jun 2022 20:28:42 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2268314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did we go to Windsor to greet the Queen? Or to Paddington? Or walk around the gardens? No, we did not. By the time we got to our hotel, it was 5:30. We went to the jacuzzi in the spa, ate our dinner and went to sleep. The next day, we traveled the last leg of our trip in the same clothes. </p> <p>Today’s “outfit” isn’t exactly a stunner, but it’s good to see family again. You guys helped me pick out the suit last year; I’ve had the skirt for at least a dozen years. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268129 Mon, 20 Jun 2022 21:44:41 +0000 Anonymous 2268129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Say hi to the Queen for me </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268095 Mon, 20 Jun 2022 16:09:29 +0000 Angie 2268095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is what I would suggest, since we were laid over in London for 12 hrs about 6 weeks ago. Take the Heathrow Express to Paddington Station. Then the tube to Covent Gardens. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268094 Mon, 20 Jun 2022 15:48:56 +0000 Suz 2268094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, this looks like fun!

Our flight from Berlin was late &amp; we are spending the night near Heathrow. The hotel’s suggestions for things that are “nearby” are Kew Garden and Windsor, both 7ish miles away. We don’t want a ton of excitement, just an enjoyable hour or two. Any suggestions? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packingtravel-post#post-2268079 Mon, 20 Jun 2022 14:00:55 +0000 Angie 2268079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jumpsuit is super cute! Nice with the necklace too. Sorry the straps kept slipping down. Bummer. Maybe you can have it altered to prevent that?</p> <p>Have a safe and fab trip!</p> <p> </p>
