I agree, I think it would look best with a pair of heavier pumps or booties, but the juxtaposition between the sweater and the skirt is GREAT! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-ucapsule-1017-18-whites-cognac-reds-blues-green-for-sorting-knitting#post-1377635 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 12:47:14 +0000 Ingunn 1377635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm blushing, Diane! Thank you :)</p> <p>Thank you, Deborah. I appreciate feeling good about myself even when rummaging through my closets. And after all, it's just a sweater and jeans-outfit.&nbsp;</p> <p>Elisabeth, thank you. I prefer the version with boots myself, too, but I need something to wear while indoors. Since all my "easy"&nbsp;shoes are packed away but the pumps - pumps it will be.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-ucapsule-1017-18-whites-cognac-reds-blues-green-for-sorting-knitting#post-1377629 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 12:25:45 +0000 Anonymous 1377629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hehe! Scrummy means delicious </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-ucapsule-1017-18-whites-cognac-reds-blues-green-for-sorting-knitting#post-1377619 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 11:45:39 +0000 Elizabeth P 1377619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A lovely set of outfits Ingunn, perfect for what you have planned.&nbsp; I don't think&nbsp; the sweater is too bulky for the skirt, however I'd probably wear slightly chunkier shoes or boots to "go" with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-ucapsule-1017-18-whites-cognac-reds-blues-green-for-sorting-knitting#post-1377612 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 11:25:24 +0000 Deborah 1377612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ingunn, your outfits are looking fab! I love the sweater with the skirt:). You are lovely and slender and the sweater does not add too much bulk at all. I love that you dress even for working on things at home. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-ucapsule-1017-18-whites-cognac-reds-blues-green-for-sorting-knitting#post-1377610 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 11:12:57 +0000 Ingunn 1377610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Diane! I think I have to figure out what scrummy means The cream sweater is new this autumn, and it's a hand knit. It is in baby alpaca and seriously soft and warm. I'm sorry to hear that your skirt had to go. The dread of an&nbsp;expanding waistline - ugh. My pleated skirt from last spring is too tight already, and I'm so sorry about it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-ucapsule-1017-18-whites-cognac-reds-blues-green-for-sorting-knitting#post-1377606 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 10:57:28 +0000 Anonymous 1377606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to use that word again... Scrummy They definitely are. I seriously covet that lovely cream sweater and It looks fab with white jeans and equally so with the purple midi skirt. The boots, topper and scarf in #2 look great and your casual day wear with messenger bag I #3 looks casual and easy,&nbsp;perfect for your sorting and meet ups. Love the red coat over the skirt outfit. I have a red coat and I miss&nbsp;my purple skirt which had to be consigned due to and expanding waistline :(. YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-ucapsule-1017-18-whites-cognac-reds-blues-green-for-sorting-knitting#post-1377599 Fri, 17 Oct 2014 10:12:25 +0000 Ingunn 1377599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm continuing with <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiws-un-fancying-myself">my capsule dressing</a>. So far it's only been fun, and getting dressed is quick and easy. I don't feel I need anything else, but then it's only been a couple of days of course. If you missed yesterday's post you can see it <a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1016-unfancy-capsule-day-3---poncho-as-scarf">here</a>.</p> <p>Today I'm posting two&nbsp;days of outfits for Friday &amp; Saturday (I won't have time for pics tomorrow, I think).&nbsp;Our weather is going on just as nasty as yesterday, but the temperatures are rising slightly so we now only have bucket&nbsp;loads of rain, no more snow fortunately. This means lots of wool.&nbsp;</p> <p><u><b>#1-2:&nbsp;U/Capsule 10.17</b></u><br /><i>Today I'm at home, packing the last content from our closets into boxes. Tomorrow we will send the excess to the landfill. I've been keeping our closets&nbsp;tidy (edited often), so the redundant load isn't overly big, thanks for that. I also have a quick errand to run for groceries.</i></p> <p><b>Outfit:</b> Cream chunky sweater,&nbsp;white slim jeans, snake pattern belt, birkies / parka,&nbsp;rain boots, plaid scarf, fingerless mittens, black tote</p> <p>This feels ultra comfortable and so easy to wear. ETA: Look at <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/231302130837542428/">this pin, found on Refinery29 </a>today!</p> <p><u><b>#3-5: U/Capsule 10.18</b></u><br /><i>Tomorrow I'll continue with the relocation work. In the afternoon I'll meet my relatives for coffee, and in the evening I'm seeing a good friend for some pizza and knitting. She certainly&nbsp;knows how to wear a skirt, so I'll be&nbsp;wearing one for her.</i></p> <p><b>Outfit 1 (daytime):</b> Grey cashmere v-neck, light blue cashmere scarf, black bomber, cognac belt, blue slim jeans, b/w Adidas sneakers, cognac messenger bag<br /><b>Outfit 2 (evening)</b>: Inspired by the red, burgundy, white and toffee ensemble - cream sweater, dark burgundy skirt, red coat, cognac boots &amp; bag, fingerless mittens. Black pumps when indoors.&nbsp;</p> <p>I had a lot of fun putting together these outfits, and I particularly liked the skirt version very much myself. Do you think the proportions work, or is the sweater to chunky for the full skirt?</p> <p>Thanks for looking! All comments are of course welcome. </p>
