I do get a more casual vibe than chic though but I like it.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065121 Mon, 30 Sep 2019 06:44:15 +0000 Jane 2065121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the blue and white combination. Good planning and I do think it saves time in the longer term - a lovely jeans collection too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065118 Mon, 30 Sep 2019 06:01:28 +0000 Liesbeth 2065118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the outfits! This color palette looks amazing with your hair.<br /> They do look more urban trendy (which I wish I could do as well as you!) than elegant &amp; poised to me, so it just depends on what you really want. I like Rachel's suggestion, and Sarah's for easy experimentation. Some accessories can make all the difference, unless again you're purposefully doing minimal :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065102 Mon, 30 Sep 2019 02:39:33 +0000 Anonymous 2065102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Katerina said it for me. Well done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065085 Mon, 30 Sep 2019 01:55:24 +0000 SarahD8 2065085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all these looks very much! Interesting that you still feel something is missing. Maybe you could experiment with structure through more fitted tops? (Since you are committed to having jeans as your trendy element and these styles have a bit more volume.) Or, I really like the idea of statement accessories too. Maybe a couple pairs of big resin hoops if you want to go the trendy direction? Or something more individual, maybe. I look forward to hearing what you work out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065083 Mon, 30 Sep 2019 01:34:58 +0000 Jaime 2065083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is working brilliantly for you. I love the blue with the white footwear. And also admire your jeans wardrobe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065033 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 17:17:29 +0000 Cardiff girl 2065033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have white wellies!Your blue coat is a lovely colour as is your stunning hair.Like you l find that a little bit of outfit planning is time saved in the long run. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065027 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 16:26:18 +0000 Katerina 2065027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perfect execution of the capsule wardrobe around outerwear. I love the trendy, chic and cohesive set of outfits. The blue palette is beautiful on you, perfect with your beautiful hair. The white wellies are sooo fun. What an unexpected color. You do look chic and fabulous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065024 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 15:57:24 +0000 Synne 2065024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely Angie, how you feel in an outfit is sooo important. Thanks for noticing my jeans! I am copying your fab recipe of keeping the jeans as the trendy element. I am very pleased with my lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065022 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 15:29:51 +0000 Angie 2065022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the 80's and early '90s jeans here.&nbsp;</p> <p>Your red hair is gorgeous!&nbsp;</p> <p>An outfit "on paper" (more like on your phone), or in your head is <i>sooooo not enough</i>. You have to PUT IT ON, and assess it then. Great conclusions. Super cute white wellies too. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065021 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 15:27:18 +0000 Synne 2065021@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all! </p> <p>Notsaf, I need to analyze this a bit, yes. I think I lack a certain extra "oomph". These where all very much basic meat&amp;potatoes outfits, fit for work in a very casual work environment with lots of time spent outside . Maybe I could play up the drama with interesting hair and jewellery? Hm..</p> <p>Rachylou, poised and elegant are maybe the wrong words. I'm thinking ladylike, stylish.. Chic may be the correct word. And yes, you are onto something regarding the tailoring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065014 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 15:12:07 +0000 Bonnie 2065014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great observations!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2065008 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 14:03:34 +0000 rachylou 2065008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are truly lovely!</p> <p>When you say poised and elegant ... are we talking Grace Kelly poised and elegant? That could mean you want clothes with more seams (!) - ie tailoring, for a skimming fit... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2064993 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 10:34:04 +0000 notsaf 2064993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fwiw, I like the column of color and tonal contrast of look number 1! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2064992 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 10:33:02 +0000 notsaf 2064992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loved your original post and am delighted to see the results! It might help to think of which of this week's outfits you felt most fab in and why. That could send you further in the right direction. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/update-on-blue-outerwear-capsule#post-2064989 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 09:57:09 +0000 Synne 2064989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A while back I wrote about <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wardrobe-hack-capsule-based-on-outerwear">my experiment with outerwear based capsule dressing</a>. </p> <p>Now the verdict is in:</p> <p>The best part has been that dressing takes much less time in the morning. This may be old news to some of you, but for me it has been revolutionary.</p> <p>I have felt less "just threw something that was clean on" than before, but still not like the poised, elegant fashionista I would like to be.</p> <p>A great outfit on paper just isn't enough to make me feel stylish. Hair, accessories, posture, mood and grooming feels all the more important.<br /> Hmm.. I need to analyze further to figure out how to reach my style goals.</p> <p>I was afraid getting dressed would feel boring at the end of the week, or that my colleagues would notice the pattern. This wasn't an issue at all. Ample variety, and dressing based on a capsule felt calming and put together.</p> <p>All and any comments are welcome. </p>
