I like #3 but it could just be the pose. Don't mind the dark and, not for the trip, would also like to see the skirt with a shorter jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321120 Wed, 03 May 2023 17:55:54 +0000 Cardiff girl 2321120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t know if it’s been suggested already but l would like to see this with a broad belt over the blazer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321117 Wed, 03 May 2023 17:32:08 +0000 LJP 2321117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really great look Carla - I have a slight preference for the bridge look . I’m with Suz in personally finding it dark for this time of year but totally recognize this as a personal opinion only z </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321098 Wed, 03 May 2023 16:43:51 +0000 Anonymous 2321098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your black skirt and boots. Fab. Can you walk for hours in those boots?<br /> Add I light or bright scarf for a more spring like look. Bonus points for a floral pattered scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321083 Wed, 03 May 2023 15:35:46 +0000 Bonnie 2321083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The addition of a skirt will give you another lovely option. I agree that a lighter top will work well, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321081 Wed, 03 May 2023 15:23:59 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 2321081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like both of these outfits, especially the stompy boots, which are giving me Brooklyn vibes.&nbsp; I like your idea of a belt in #1/2, because I think that balances the heaviness of the boots.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321079 Wed, 03 May 2023 14:42:32 +0000 Carla 2321079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@ those who find the outfit (and my travel capsule) too dark. &nbsp;I agree. &nbsp;Especially after watching London street style videos on YouTube! &nbsp;(Lots of white jeans!) I’m going to sub in my cream cotton sweater for the navy. &nbsp;It works with the ensembles where I was planning to use the navy…</p> <p>@ <b>BlueJay&nbsp;</b>-&nbsp;I didn’t find a dress for the wedding that would work with the yellow sling backs, but thrifted one that is purple on a black background and got new black pumps (which I needed anyway.) &nbsp;The sling backs will get worn - no worries! - just need temps to warm up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321075 Wed, 03 May 2023 13:58:07 +0000 BlueJay 2321075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Suz about the belt and Angie about #3, but wear/bring whatever footwear works best for comfort/packing. The colours are great, I wear black or navy all year. </p> <p>(As an aside, I haven't been keeping track of all the replies and posts, why are the yellow slingbacks not coming?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321074 Wed, 03 May 2023 13:51:07 +0000 Jules 2321074@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I love it, and I am not big a fan of tulle skirts personally -&nbsp; I am actually getting some 90s goth vibes off this, especially with the combat boots - but in an updated and dare I say "age appropriate" way so don't let the word goth scare you off! It's more of a vibe/nod. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321071 Wed, 03 May 2023 13:43:01 +0000 Angie 2321071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 is KILLER </p> <p>(Both versions work well).</p> <p>If you enjoy wearing dark colours like this for Spring and Summer - you nailed it, <b>Carla</b>! Practically Elegant.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321058 Wed, 03 May 2023 12:34:07 +0000 Olive Green 2321058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Dee just said, a little lightness and contrast in the top would be good. Pink, even.&nbsp;<br />Love the skirt with both boots, and the jacket looks very comfy and so useful! been looking at suits because of you, Runcarla, and because I very occasionally need to look like a grown up. And stay comfortable. Your suit is getting such a workout, it is inspiring.&nbsp;<br />Whichever pair of boots is the most comfy, I would take.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321054 Wed, 03 May 2023 12:23:58 +0000 Dee 2321054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both versions seem to work well, but my preference would be to try a lighter colour top or scarf with the blazer just to offset such a dark colour combo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321050 Wed, 03 May 2023 12:06:25 +0000 RobinF 2321050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great but I personally wouldn't wear a skirt on vacation :)<br />Definitely a good option if you think you would wear it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321049 Wed, 03 May 2023 11:59:26 +0000 Irina 2321049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the last version with high shaft boots. It looks contemporary and elegant. Try maybe with a different top under the blazer, something that stays flat with the buttoned blazer. But overall, I think it’s a fab outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321041 Wed, 03 May 2023 11:11:36 +0000 Anonymous 2321041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the bridge version too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321038 Wed, 03 May 2023 08:54:57 +0000 bella 2321038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both versions, excellent job! Also, I love how your versatile your closet is, things play really well with each other. Major kudos!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321037 Wed, 03 May 2023 08:02:56 +0000 Sisi 2321037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these two outifts a lot! I like the juxtaposition of romantic skirt and severe blazer. YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321034 Wed, 03 May 2023 07:36:01 +0000 Star (Lise) 2321034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both but prefer the combat boots a smidge more.&nbsp; Edgy!&nbsp; Very successful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321032 Wed, 03 May 2023 06:00:17 +0000 rachylou 2321032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it both ways. To me navy is a spring colour, but my caveat is that the sun has to actually be shining… and where I’m at, it’s pouring rain with hail a possibility. Lol. SMH. California has four seasons… they just change every four days… *sigh* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321030 Wed, 03 May 2023 04:40:33 +0000 SarahD8 2321030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually prefer it with the combat boots! (The bridge night version works too, just offering a vote of confidence for the travel version.) Very Dark Academia Gentlewoman to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321027 Wed, 03 May 2023 04:04:39 +0000 slim cat 2321027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bridge version - very nice! One of your fab scarf might add enough lightness ( something with the white color, or beige and green ).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321025 Wed, 03 May 2023 03:59:17 +0000 Suz 2321025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the version you wore for bridge!&nbsp;</p> <p>I don't think it is unsuccessful...but for me, it would feel awfully dark for this time of year. That's entirely personal, though, and you might feel absolutely fine in it.&nbsp;</p> <p>I think ideally the proportions of the jacket would be a bit shorter with the. skirt, but if you belt it, that would be the effect and it might be really cool.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6auditioning-a-travel-outfit#post-2321020 Wed, 03 May 2023 02:47:12 +0000 Carla 2321020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It was suggested that I add a skirt to my travel capsule <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/travel-capsule---12-days-in-england">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....in-england</a>&nbsp;,&nbsp;so I chose a black skirt because it ‘goes’ with many of the other things I’m packing. &nbsp;Below are the ‘Finds’ of an ensemble I put together using the skirt.</p> <p> <div><br /></div><div>In photos #1+2 I’m wearing a navy sweater (not a T-shirt per the ensemble) and I forgot to style it with the belt cinching the jacket. &nbsp;The ensemble is intended for casual - thus the combat boots. &nbsp;I could dress things up for an event by wearing the point toe pumps that go with the wedding outfit. &nbsp;(I’m bringing no more than 3 pair of shoes). &nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>Not sure how successful the outfit is? &nbsp;Changed up the heavier boots for high shaft heeled boots for Bridge night (#3) </p> <p>What says the hive mind?</p> <p> </div></p>
