Moving is so stressful and I know it is hard to say goodbye. Germany is not so far from England at least. Best wishes for a safe travel and good vibes for settling in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-and-run-last-outfit-in-england-random-photos-and-im-on-syc#post-629897 Sun, 27 May 2012 05:13:35 +0000 CocoLion 629897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fantastic! I miss you on YLF, looking forward to seeing you around here more once you're settled.</p> <p>Your travel capsule and color concepts are brilliant and inspiring. My travel capsule is usually this: black, faded black, and dull black. But introducing white and red, two colors more flattering on me, I could still keep the practicality of black while actually looking my age rather than depressed and 5 years older. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-and-run-last-outfit-in-england-random-photos-and-im-on-syc#post-629895 Sun, 27 May 2012 04:32:29 +0000 Scarlet 629895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck with the move! I also feel my wardrobe size is too large, but I am thinking purge rather than SYC </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-and-run-last-outfit-in-england-random-photos-and-im-on-syc#post-629861 Sun, 27 May 2012 03:07:01 +0000 Sveta 629861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ornella, good luck in your relocation. It is for sure a hectic and stressful time but also so wonderful and exciting. I am sure you will form new friendships in Germany while still keeping your current ones and it will make you life richer.<br /> I love your travel capsule - what can be more gorgeous than black, white and red?<br /> Safe travel! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-and-run-last-outfit-in-england-random-photos-and-im-on-syc#post-629859 Sun, 27 May 2012 03:04:06 +0000 Transcona Shannon 629859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All the best with everything Ornella - take care and enjoy this wonderful and exciting time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-and-run-last-outfit-in-england-random-photos-and-im-on-syc#post-629857 Sun, 27 May 2012 03:03:13 +0000 Angie 629857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are SO organized!

I am still close with people I have not seen in many years, and some I only see once a year.

Love the capsules. I have moved many times in my life and each time is a learning experience about myself first (the packing and unpacking). It is sad to leave familiar and friendly people and places, but it's also a new beginning and an opportunity to be and do anything you want with no prior association (or baggage). One can reinvent oneself (if you want to). The best part is your entire wardrobe could be stale as week old bread to you, but it's ALL new to your new environment. I predict much success for you in your new life. </p> <p>Best of luck with move. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/post-and-run-last-outfit-in-england-random-photos-and-im-on-syc#post-629775 Sun, 27 May 2012 00:30:59 +0000 Ornella 629775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just a quick stop by while I still have internet connection, I'm at a friends' house before we leave for Germany tomorrow. I'll probably go completely quiet for a few weeks from now as we need to move in the new place and sort out internet connection.</p> <p><strong>What's been going on</strong><br /> I have the most hectic, tiring and stressful week behind me, which culminated with the house sale completion yesterday and our moving out - by far the most desirable scenario for us as we wanted the sale finalized before we leave. As from yesterday, a lovely couple owns the very house at no.4 we used to call home and I hope they'll also be happy there. </p> <p>There are so many things to be grateful for - above all for all the friendships we've made. We came to England 9 years ago and knew no-one, but the last few weeks were filled with emotional good byes. But, as my god friend says, you take friendships with you wherever you go, and the real ones will last.</p> <p><strong>The Move and SYC</strong><br /> The first part of the move was revealing. The guys who packed our things laughed when I asked them to scale our move - they said it was small! To me, however, seeing half the enormous truck loaded with our belongings seemed and felt overwhelming. </p> <p>The one truth I have come face-to-face with - despite my desire to go minimal, I actually have way too much clothes! So, after seeing all the boxes with just my clothes, and in the midst of the move mayhem, I've decided on the spot that I am officially on SYC until the end of this year apart from the obvious necessities where purchase is necessary and my common sense will dictate the purchase (e.g. super-warm winter coat). Going on SYC is not rushed decision. It's been brewing inside me for a while.</p> <p>I actually also think I could easily do 30-for-30 challenge. I had to pack for a few transitional weeks before all our things arrive and found it very inspiring.</p> <p>Last but not least, I'm traveling in very tested formula of non-wrinkly tunics/tops + skinies + flat shoes. Nothing spectacular, but practical. Today, our last full day of fun in England, we visited Stratford-upon-Avon and the Church of the Holy Trinity where William Shakespeare was buried. </p> <p><strong>The Photos</strong><br /> 1. WIW today<br /> 2. Travel/transition capsule foundation - when in doubt, reach for b&amp;w<br /> 3. Travel/transition final selection - at heart, I am b&amp;w + red girl<br /> 4. Move day - truck in the morning<br /> 5. Move day - truck with all our stuff boxed up<br /> 6. The tower of the Church of the Holy Trinity on one of the most glorious and sunny days I can remember. </p>
