I especially like #1. The green and white outfit is perfect with the coral bag (and the bag works great with other outfits).</p> <p>I have a Kangaroo Keeper organizer but most weeks still carry the same bag all week so I guess it did not make much of a difference for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-the-big-heat-and-q-about-bag-organisers#post-654527 Tue, 26 Jun 2012 09:04:09 +0000 Deborah 654527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In love seeing you post Lyn:). #1 is gorgeous. Such a classy and stylish dress and good thinking stitching the top of the dress as you did. #2 is so fresh and summery.#5 is a lovely dress and you know how much I like black and white and #7 is not dated in my opinion. It looks lovely on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-the-big-heat-and-q-about-bag-organisers#post-653828 Mon, 25 Jun 2012 13:43:08 +0000 MsMary 653828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all the dresses! Just perfect for hot weather!</p> <p>As for purse organizers, I swear by the tan <a href="http://www.wdrake.com/WalterDrake/displayitem.aspx?id=336341">Kangaroo Keeper</a>. It comes in a two-pack and I use the smaller one. It's structured but not stiff, so it holds its shape but you can still get it in a smallish bag opening. And it's very important to get the tan because the black one is like a black hole -- I had the black and re-ordered the tan because I just. couldn't. see. anything. in the black one. It's easy to see what's in the tan one! No closure on top but I haven't felt like I needed it to close. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-the-big-heat-and-q-about-bag-organisers#post-653816 Mon, 25 Jun 2012 13:31:02 +0000 Angie 653816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely LOVE #5. That dress is amazingly KILLER. An old favourite that deserves pride of place in your wardrobe. </p> <p>Adore #1 too. Just gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-the-big-heat-and-q-about-bag-organisers#post-653802 Mon, 25 Jun 2012 13:20:22 +0000 Suz 653802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lyn, that shift dress in #1 is SO sophisticated on you. And I love the way you are using that coral bag; it's fabulous with all these outfits. </p> <p>I think MaryK is a real expert on bag organizers. Hopefully she will chime in. I haven't purchased one yet but hope to do so in the fall when I get a larger bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-the-big-heat-and-q-about-bag-organisers#post-653781 Mon, 25 Jun 2012 13:02:48 +0000 Anonymous 653781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them all on you. You look fabulous for hot days. The coral bag is just perfect with each outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-the-big-heat-and-q-about-bag-organisers#post-653777 Mon, 25 Jun 2012 12:58:21 +0000 Transcona Shannon 653777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all fantastic l yn! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-in-the-big-heat-and-q-about-bag-organisers#post-653776 Mon, 25 Jun 2012 12:55:07 +0000 lyn67 653776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1. M&amp;S breezy linen shift dress (not lined!).<br /> I loved this print and neutral colors so much that I boought the only one piece left in the sales from last summer one size up. It has a black/silver long exposed zipper on the back, and some pleats to the neck on front. As there was no waist deffinition to it at all, I decided I can easilly take in and tapper a bit on the sides, and on the torso by myself and, but this was a bit harder to do well, I also sew down the 3 pleats comming from the front neck to under the bust resulting in an almost like an empire fit. (as it was there too boxy fro my bust, too) How do you like it?<br /> It was 33°C that day here and no AC to my office:-((, so I went sans a belt to keep as cool as possible. Shoes are tan kitten heeled loafer look sling backs (but have tan suede wedges for it, too).<br /> 2-4 Basic. Posted this on one of Merredith's threads, too. White denim skirt, and emerald green short sleeve equipment shirt, grey almost flats, or tan suede wedges.<br /> 5.This is an old favorite (2009) linen dress. Keeps me cool as it's sleeveles. I belted it with an animal belt here.(!)<br /> 6-7. A floral wrap jersey dress I have for some years, now-and still love-Do you find it dated? (with the black waist definition there?) Please tell me honestly, if yes.</p> <p>I usually throw on a white/black or cream long(but schrunched) or short sleeve jackets over these to look more polished, but this week was just too hot for it:-(.</p> <p>As you can see, my coral bag is always, there. I really have other bags, too:-), but lately, i was too lazy to change them in the morning rush(used to run before work some days)-and my bags are always so clutterred, so just went with it again and again....not good, I know. </p> <p>SO, I'm interrested in your experiences on those bag organizers, too. I followed Amy"s thread about it, and- as I cannot find anything like those organisers here also searched on the ebay for them- but still couldn't find anything quite good for me, yet.</p> <p>My question on this thema:<br /> - has the organiser to have a closure on top(string or zip, and which one do you like more) or not really needed?<br /> -has to be stiff-(so what material?) to hold it's shape?(I think it has to be stiff- even putting it in a structurred bag will do better if so...or, what do you say?)<br /> -can you advise some tricks, also-what dimensions, and how many pockets are usefull for you?</p> <p>Commets and advices always appreciated.<br /> Will have another thread with some new dresses, too- soon:-) </p>
