WIW: Cricket Trip & More - YouLookFab Forum

Thanks to all who offered advice re what to take for my cricket trip!!

Pic 1: Wednesday's outfit. If I look frazzled, it's because I'd just got to the hotel, after two trains, a dash across London Underground, and then walking to find the hotel! I did wind up wearing my hoodie for most of the match, as the wind got quite strong as the night drew on. I forgot to take an outfit pic on Thursday, but basically wore the same except I switched tees to the pink one (pic 5).
Pic 2: Second innings of the match, the players in red are Lancashire Lightning, who batted very poorly! Birmingham Bears won, thanks to the usual excellent playing from Belly!

Pic 3 & 4: I got home about 8pm Thursday, and Friday evening Child and I went camping with my sister and her family over the weekend. I didn't manage a pic because we didn't get to the campsite till almost 9pm! Pic 3 is Saturday, and 4 is Sunday.

I don' t know anything about cricket but you look good. Also I admire your outfits for camping.

I love the cricket pictures: how fun! And your camping outfit are great. In my camping experience, it's simply sweatpants and flannel!!!

Awesome! Love the earrings for the cricket. Casual with bling, perfect!

I’m gonna go camping soon...

Adriana, Viva, I find for camping that leggings/skinny jeans and tunic dresses with boots are the most practical whilst remaining stylish! I do add a hoody for sitting round the fire late at night, which doesn't tend to work with my blousier tunics so much but does keep me warm!

Rachylou, thanks for the earring love! I wanted something that added glam, without overwhelming the cricket-ness of the outfit, and these fitted the bill perfectly!

Love the pics - you suit blue really well. My favourite look is the last one - the floral tunic - I really like it on you. But I like the cricket look too - I usually wear a long sleeve top and shorts and a big hat (but NZ sun is very harsh)

I love cricket!!

That looks more like glamping (glamorous camping) to me

Jane

Great outfits and nails! Love the blue varnish and very glam for camping!

Cindysmith, it was proper camping, albeit that my sister has a caravan they keep on site that they sleep in. The tent I'm in front of is actually where the bigger kids sleep, as it has plenty of room!

Thanks Sal and Jane, that floral tunic is one of my faves!

Sal, I forgot to take my straw sunhat with me to the cricket, but the wind was strong enough that it probably would have blown away several times! I got lucky though, although it was warm, it wasn't as baking hot as it was last month so skinny jeans were ideal!

Jane, the nail varnish is actually false nails from Poundland, and they can take a lot of beating up! Actual nail varnish tend to chip very easily with me, and as my job is shelf stacking/cleaning night cashier in a petrol station I need nailwear that looks good and is tough!
