It was a real mixed bag poolside, but quite a few ladies were really glammed up - tons of gold jewelry, satin mules with sky high heels, and the piece de resistance - mink stoles!! I couldn’t believe my eyes lol. Needless to say, they weren’t serious swimmers...<br /> Anyway, enough about me, your outfits look great. I love the red shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041817 Thu, 11 Jul 2019 15:35:43 +0000 Sara L. 2041817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing that packing for a vacation to somewhere you've never been is difficult.&nbsp; We also just got back from a beach vacation, but the beach near us was pretty deserted.&nbsp; Nobody around to compare to.&nbsp; I also took hardly any photos of my outfits.&nbsp; Every photo my husband took of me, I'm holding a drink.&nbsp; I swear I don't drink nearly as much as you would think from his photos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041734 Thu, 11 Jul 2019 12:53:41 +0000 Angie 2041734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>STUNNING.

Not having a tan is something you’ll be glad of years from now. I see the sun worshippers looking very leathery in their later years. You look perfect in the pictured outfits.

You look stellar in your vacation wear--we should all look so stylish! &nbsp;I tend to under pack and under dress on vacation only because I know that I will end up wearing the same thing and am too lazy to &nbsp;get dressed up for dinner at least for beach oriented vacations. Adding Mallorca to my bucket list! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041423 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 13:27:44 +0000 Bijou 2041423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fun to see your travel pictures, the photos are absolutely beautiful. You look great. I do sympathise about wearing bathers, I am a quick dash into the water sort of person too. I am just so used to being fully clothed that being in bathers just never feels comfortable to me.</p> <p>Having good footwear to me is travels biggest challenge, especially when wearing shoes in hot climates. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041417 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 12:36:33 +0000 Anonymous 2041417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely holiday photos - the water looks spectacular! &nbsp;Thanks for introducing me to Timberland sandals : &nbsp;I had no idea they made anything other than boots and workwear! &nbsp;What a great line!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041414 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 11:53:44 +0000 Helena 2041414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your polished sporty vacation style! I love your sense of humour but suspect you are being a WEE bit hard on yourself this time. As for the tan, as a fellow non-tanner, I say embrace it! It's my signature beach look to be the pale, freckled one amongst the sea of gold and tan As to evening wear, what about a simple black sundress; easy to dress up or down, sweat and stain-proof, and a stylish colour in virtually any setting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041408 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 10:44:43 +0000 Liesbeth 2041408@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You crack me up! Sorry about the jellyfish sting though. You look cool in all those outfits. I seldom have packing regret as I just have no use for dressy stuff when traveling. We never stop over at hotel room before dinner or drinks and so I have to accept looking like what I am: a dusty pale tourist :). I've only ever regretted not bringing a fleece sweater: it was a southern, warm destination but I forgot about the cold in the hills at night. Had to layer everything I brought just to be able to sit out on the terrace with everyone else :-D. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041402 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 10:22:47 +0000 Cardiff girl 2041402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you style Fan,l love my plimsolls.They come in such fab colours.l add a new pair in a different colour each year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041400 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 10:21:01 +0000 Cardiff girl 2041400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ms maven,humidity and heat are much more draining than dry heat I find and yes ,I also fight the tendency to overpack.l didn’t use any if the long sleeved shirts I took .Too hot,but I have put in an order for more short sleeved ones as I found these the most useful and didn’t cling like tee shirts in the heat.<br /> Rachylou,ythank you and heresthe link for the red tennis.Many colours available! <a href="https://www.doraplimsolls.co.uk/product/dora/798/" rel="nofollow">https://www.doraplimsolls.co.uk/product/dora/798/</a><br /> Janet,thank you,l m sure that you are right,no one else would have felt what I wore was inappropriate,it’s more about how one feels in side isn’t it.<br /> Shevia,thank you. vacation regrets,that sounds like a heavy post!I hope that you don’t have too many.<br /> Suz,thank you.l m not sure that my shoes are still available but here’s the link to the site I used.The ortholite sole is the thing to look for ,it’s incredibly comfortable under foot. <a href="https://www.timberland.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">https://www.timberland.co.uk/</a><br /> Runcarla,thank you for the compliment,I am reasonably fit being,like you ,a regular gym attendee but I do have bad veins in my legs.Nothing Ican Do about that so I carry on regardless.As always its about perspective.l see ladies of my own space with blemish free legs and look on in wonder but then I have a friend who has just had quite significant surgery to remove melanomas from her legs and is getting up the courage to expose her scars in the swimming pool so in comparison I have nothing to gripe about.<br /> Aliceinwonderland,good for you!Its all about the experience notthe way you look anyway and I m sure that you don’t look like a dork.<br /> Taylor,l can see you there,looking fabulous as always!<br /> Jane,thanks ,it was lovely.l hope that you have a relaxing break booked somewhere this year too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041397 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 10:09:11 +0000 Style Fan 2041397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous photos!&nbsp; Your wardrobe sounds well planned.&nbsp; The red shoes are very cute. &nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041377 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 05:54:00 +0000 Jane 2041377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning photos.

Thank you for sharing your photos and experiences. Your outfits look so relaxed and cool. I’m a super light packer and haven’t regretted much on vacation. On my upcoming trip to Hawaii I will pack swimsuit,hat, 1 dress, 1 skort, 2 tees, and sandals into a backpack. I hate checking in luggage.I do make sure shoes are always comfortable and as long as I do that I usually have no regrets. I’m also okay with looking like a dork on vacation too, which helps with light packing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pale-under-the-sun#post-2041352 Wed, 10 Jul 2019 02:54:20 +0000 Carla 2041352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Writing Mallorca down as a place to go! I love travelling and living out of a suitcase. I travel light, too - with a mix and match capsule - and have been pretty successful with what I've packed. Best tips: there is always room for flip flops and they can get you to the pool, shared loo down the hall, or act as slippers in the hotel. Always pack a bathing suit - you never know when you might have access to a pool or a spa, and a bikini can be a back up bra/panty combo. 1 easy t-shirt style dress - beach cover up, pj, multitasker. 3 pairs of footwear. Layers. Don't be afraid to pack light and buy something enroute - to wear and have as a souvenir.</p> <p>FWIW - you have great legs, Cardif girl, and look very fit and trim. </p>
