And then #3 here instead of the dress in #6. I think I might get more versatility from these items:). </p> <p>I will go and do a try on tomorrow:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule/page/2#post-1571309 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 02:52:36 +0000 Beth Ann 1571309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You will be an asset to the shop, Deborah!&nbsp; Love the idea of creating a capsule for your work there, and I look forward to seeing your outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1571298 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 02:18:27 +0000 deb 1571298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I like it all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1571291 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 02:00:32 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1571291@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it all! It will be interesting to see what you think of 6 when you try it; my impression is it is the most unusual of all of these picks, for your style. Congratulations on the new job--it sounds like a lot of fun, and you will be dynamite at it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1571259 Wed, 14 Oct 2015 00:22:40 +0000 lisaflex 1571259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>5 and 8 are awesome!!! good luck on new job </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1571195 Tue, 13 Oct 2015 21:51:29 +0000 Deborah 1571195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes Angie and primarily for the new job. I have reviewed these items and am now considering two other items instead of two here. I am trying to maximise the number of outfits with a small number of garments;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1571010 Tue, 13 Oct 2015 14:06:12 +0000 Angie 1571010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great that you're thinking in a capsule.

In terms of the pieces you've shown, #'s 1 and 2 look too similar to invest in both - they would perform the very same function in a wardrobe and look very, very similar. &nbsp; I love the sleeveless dress - that is very cool, but I have to say I 'm not loving the other paisley print for you. Looks very matronly to my eye and not in sync with how you usually present yourself. &nbsp;Sorry for not being a ray of positivity here - just wanted to be honest. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570518 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 14:10:25 +0000 Sara L. 1570518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fun!&nbsp; I especially love the black and white pieces.&nbsp; I'm thinking I really need to buy more black and white patterned pieces because I'm drawn to them every time I see them.&nbsp; Finding the right patterns is the key though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570486 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 13:08:27 +0000 lyn67 1570486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats for a new and &nbsp;so inspiring of a job! I love the new &nbsp;asymmetric dress, and the things you already own, but nr 6 is quite a stretch for your pattern and color fobia, &nbsp;but cut is OK so let's see how it works! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570462 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 11:39:42 +0000 Gail 1570462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that all the pieces look really great and will work well. I especially like #6 and can't wait to see it on you if you decide to purchase !</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570457 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 11:26:10 +0000 Helen11 1570457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How exciting. I really like 6, too, and look forward to seeing it on you. I'm sure your customers will look and feel fab, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570456 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 11:04:37 +0000 Suz 1570456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Every one of these has potential, and what a great opportunity to try a few new items!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570447 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 10:36:55 +0000 Summer 1570447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So exciting for you, Deborah. &nbsp;I can see you in all these pieces even if there is more pattern than you are used to. &nbsp;Great start to the capsule. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570437 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 09:18:35 +0000 Deborah 1570437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree #6 is very different but I think it's lovely so worth trying. You never know;).</p> <p>Brooklyn, I like that tunic but I don't like mesh:( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570435 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 09:14:30 +0000 Anonymous 1570435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good for you. &nbsp;I am sure it will be a lot of fun. &nbsp;I love everything except number 6. &nbsp;I have a hard time imagining you wearing that. &nbsp;I look forward to you showing me wrong. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570431 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 08:43:22 +0000 Brooklyn 1570431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on the new job. How exciting! This capsule looks good to me although no 6 seems not quite your style in terms of the print. I will be very interested to see it on you! Do you think you should add a short sleeve or sleeveless top for the warmer weather? I looked at motto and I thought the mesh Indy tunic looked like you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570430 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 08:36:43 +0000 Deborah 1570430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Coco! &nbsp;Yes OUR jacket is awesome:) &nbsp;And the jacket in #7 is fantastic. &nbsp;You can drape and clasp it to one or both shoulders for a different look </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570429 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 08:22:12 +0000 Cococat 1570429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How exciting Deborah and what a great place to work.&nbsp; </p> <p>I think that you will be able to get a great work capsule from those pieces. I really like the jacket in 7, and our favourite in 8. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570427 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 08:03:58 +0000 Deborah 1570427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sally! I love both the dresses and think I can toughen them up with footwear and accessories:) but will have to try them on of course. </p> <p>I also wondered about the similarity of the tops but I just can't get on board with the coloured patterned tops they have. At least I know I won't tire of the black and white quickly:). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570424 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 07:55:44 +0000 Sal 1570424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They all look very nice. &nbsp;This reminds me how much I like the jacket in 8!!</p> <p>I love 5, and I will be interested to see you in 6 - I like it alot.</p> <p>I think 1 is very appealing &nbsp;- I am not sure about 2, and wonder if it is too similar to 1?</p> <p>Congrats on the new job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/putting-together-a-work-capsule#post-1570423 Mon, 12 Oct 2015 07:38:55 +0000 Deborah 1570423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes Jen I will;). I love their clothing but favour their items in solid colours, but I don't mind stretching my preferences a little;) </p>
