So for example, casual navy pants can be worn with casual brown shoes because they're both casual even though black and navy might seem a more obvious color combination. And your bag, which style wise is an appropriate match to sneakers doesn't have to ALSO be the perfect color complement.<br />Of course I don't actually know exactly why you weren't happy with the sneaker bag combination and maybe it's not about color at all? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808451 Sun, 14 May 2017 15:08:47 +0000 Anonymous 1808451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tisa - you are on to something with switching up tops and jackets. &nbsp;I know the graphic t seems a little casual for work, and it would look great under the blue jacket . I think I may just switch up the whole pairing - thanks for the suggestion !!</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808450 Sun, 14 May 2017 14:57:26 +0000 lpr200 1808450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay to book ending!

Shoes and bag don't have to match! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808441 Sun, 14 May 2017 14:31:34 +0000 JAileen 1808441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think your travel capsule looks pretty good, actually. Yes, gold bookends your new hair color. It's too short a trip, but have a good time. </p> <p>Your Rebecca Minkoff bag looks great. I had to return the one I ordered because Nordstrom described it as a crossbody which it was NOT! It was beautiful quality, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808426 Sun, 14 May 2017 10:53:22 +0000 Style Fan 1808426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Victoria is so beautiful.&nbsp; Love it.&nbsp; Your outfits sound gorgeous.&nbsp; The rose gold sneakers work perfectly with your hair as pointed out by the others.&nbsp; I do love that Smythe blazer.&nbsp; How amazing is that!&nbsp; I remember it from last year.&nbsp; Great colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808416 Sun, 14 May 2017 10:04:40 +0000 Summer 1808416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think everything works beautifully, including the rose-gold sneakers.&nbsp; Have a good trip. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808412 Sun, 14 May 2017 09:01:57 +0000 Bijou 1808412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great to see you wearing your beautiful turquoise blazer. I love the sound of your outfit, rose gold and turquoise seems like a match made in heaven, especially with your blonde hair. I am coveting you black shoes, they are really lovely too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808410 Sun, 14 May 2017 08:56:25 +0000 Anonymous 1808410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rose gold shoes totally work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808407 Sun, 14 May 2017 07:24:36 +0000 Tisa 1808407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely travel capsule. I find it interesting how different outfits people put together even from a small number of articles. For example, I would wear the sleeveles top to the presentation and the graphic tee on the flight. I might swap the blazers, too. That would be a harder decision, though, because both are very pretty.</p> <p>I think both sneaker pairs are good choices. Your gold slip-ons would look very nice with the black blazer, since it's got gold buttons. </p> <p>I don't see a problem with the bag. It looks like the kind of bag that can hold EVERYTHING, can be worn anywhere and with any outfit. Perfect to take with on a trip.</p> <p>Cute wardrobe all around, and possible to wear in many different combinations. Well done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808406 Sun, 14 May 2017 07:17:24 +0000 Gaylene 1808406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I'm more than disappointed I can't even buy you a coffee!

Hair ties in with shoes . Ok- I feel less dishevelled already . I'm headed to bed and you are getting up! Happy Mother's Day !! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808375 Sun, 14 May 2017 02:47:51 +0000 viva 1808375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you will look wonderful with the rose gold sneaks. They will bookend your hair! More later - it's so late - just wanted to say good luck with the presentation!! Your travel outfits are on point. You'll be a smash! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808374 Sun, 14 May 2017 02:45:08 +0000 Jaime 1808374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why doesn't gold work with black? You are not wearing solid black on top and your hair matches the shoes. But I am not good at judging without visuals, especially early in the morning. I am sure you will do - and look - great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-travel-packing-post#post-1808372 Sun, 14 May 2017 02:13:00 +0000 Anonymous 1808372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm off to Victoria, BC  (oh Gaylene, I can't believe I won't be there long enough to check out your favourite shops) tomorrow  to work with a group of people interested in my experience in the different channels in publishing sales.  In and out the next day, sadly, as Victoria is SO beautiful, but I just can't afford the time away from my "day job" right now.</p> <p>I used the finds to assemble my packing list , and found it a great tool for editing and changing plans. A good little YLF'r would have her whole closet in here, but I'm a ways away from that yet  </p> <p>It's hard to know what to wear to work these days. I know to err on the side of dressiness and a more conservative look, but publishing people are a different lot , and this is a small office with a casual feel.  I'm wearing the blue blazer, jeans, and a sleeveless BCBG print silk tank , jeans and some metallic sneakers for the plane trip. I have hardly worn this jacket, and I hope I can get more comfortable in it.  I'll be adding in a bunch of gold/turquoise druzy stone jewellery , and carrying my usual black tote. I'm not convinced the sneakers are the best choice here given my tote is black, but I really want to wear them!! I need a white/or light colour tote for summer . Ugh.    Presentation day will be in a black jacket, black linen graphic t,  black cropped wide leg pants and heels. A quick change into jeans and black sneakers for the plane trip home later that day.  More gold jewellery.  </p> <p>Do I ditch the rose gold sneakers and wear the black ones on the plane instead ? Or ignore the fact that my tote and luggage don't work with my shoes ?  All of a sudden I feel disheveled and I'm not even at the airport yet.  And now I am obsessed with finding the perfect summer work tote.   </p>
