The scarf is very versatile for my cold weather style.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Isabel</b><b>,</b> I can't help but choose something that is clean, crisp, polished and neat.

Super Sam and I are ready with tea and cake.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Chris</b> and<b> Sal</b>, thinking of your wardrobe in terms capsules and complements gets easier every season. Glad the method works for you too. It's half the work done when it come to outfit creation.</p> <p><b>Tanya</b>, don't you have a COS closeby? Road trip!</p> <p><b>Suz</b>, YES.

I have just started thinking of my fall and winter wardrobe&nbsp;in color capsules and it's quite a revelation.</p> <p>I know you don't partake of alcohol but i hope you don't mind if I say that those gorgeous bordeaux booties&nbsp;make me think of a lovely glass of dry red Bordeaux wine, which is another sign of fall&nbsp;to me. Those dark reds are just so lovely. Loving your olives too! &nbsp;</p> <p>And how wonderful that you and Inge are shopping buddies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought-on-my-nl-trip-aug/page/2#post-1842961 Wed, 06 Sep 2017 21:27:19 +0000 Tanya 1842961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, you are semi-right: the dress is available on US site in navy, but all the sizes are sold out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought-on-my-nl-trip-aug/page/2#post-1842958 Wed, 06 Sep 2017 21:11:45 +0000 Sal 1842958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great thoughtful additions, they look great to add to your fall and winter closet. &nbsp;The Cos sweater has a lovely shape to it and I have been looking for a cream and silver scarf just like that all winter!!</p> <p>I also now think in capsules when shopping; it really makes such a difference in having a workable closet!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought-on-my-nl-trip-aug#post-1842929 Wed, 06 Sep 2017 19:05:28 +0000 Suz 1842929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous haul! And so well thought out! The scarf will be like wearing beautiful golden coins -- the colour will catch the light and make you glow. I also love the thought of the olive with some of the sour brights. Fabulous dress! Will you also wear it over crops, do you think?&nbsp;</p> <p>I like how olive is switching things up for you in a subtle way.&nbsp;</p> <p>And the booties! WOW. I never met a chelsea boot I did not love but these are super-special. I can't wait to see the companion pieces you pick up. I do think your Burberry scarf will harmonize even though the colours are a bit different -- the combo of the red and the tan in that pattern will blend well with the boots.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought-on-my-nl-trip-aug#post-1842925 Wed, 06 Sep 2017 18:33:52 +0000 Dianna 1842925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful pieces, Angie.&nbsp; I specially like your scarf and booties.&nbsp; Those booties are divine.&nbsp; Please tell Sam to keep them protected because I might as well fly to Seattle to steal them.<i></i> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought-on-my-nl-trip-aug#post-1842920 Wed, 06 Sep 2017 18:10:20 +0000 Anonymous 1842920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As my hair becomes more grey my "default" colors seem less flattering and other colors are so unfamiliar it's a little intimidating.</p> <p>But these colors seem different from your "sour brights" and you've managed to find the clearest, cleanest, neatest looking versions and then combine them in ways that brighten the finished effect so they still look like your style.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-i-bought-on-my-nl-trip-aug#post-1842912 Wed, 06 Sep 2017 17:41:16 +0000 Angie 1842912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Mijana</b> and <b>Lisa</b>, you are sweethearts.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Ginger,</b>&nbsp;so I'm happy to go a little darker when I refresh for Fall/Winter.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Thistle, </b>I'm a lot more practical them you might think. *smiling*</p> <p><b>Lisa p</b>, thanks for the olive welcome.
