In a few days, I leave for two weeks on business (to France - across the ocean for me). The dress code will be smart casual (everyone will be in jeans, but I'm the only female, and I don't want to look sloppy).
I'm facing a similar challenge to the one LisaP wrote about a couple of weeks ago - my weight is higher than I'm comfortable with it being, and as a consequence, I don't like the way my clothes fit. This makes choosing a travel capsule more challenging, because I'm hoping that the clothes I take fit well enough that I can feel confident, rather than oversized, in them.
Here's what I think I'm taking:
Bottoms:
2 pair black skinny jeans (one cropped, one full length)
1 pair cropped white skinny jeans
Possibly my blue cropped flared jeans (shown in pic #9 - should they come along? They're comfy enough to sleep on the plane in, so they're a serious contender)
Top possibilities:
Navy silk sleeveless shirt ( pic #1)
turquoise pattern shirt (pic #2)
dark grey heathered sweater (pic #3 )
light grey
heathered
short-sleeved sweater (too similar to darker one?) (pic #4)
Turquoise blouse (pic #5)
hot pink sweater (pic #6)
cream/black/tan blouse (pic #7)
Black asymmetrical sweater (pic #8) (Should I take the pink polka-dot pants too? I kinda don't think so)
Toppers (not shown):
black jacket (in finds, embroidered with company logo)
black cardigan (in finds, embroidered with company logo).
Company logo is silver, blue and green
Shoes:
black loafers (not shown in any pictures)
possibly black pumps (shown, are they frumpy?)
possibly black boots (in pic #8 and #9) or another shoe. I haven't decided yet.
Here are pictures of the outfits (with my black spiegel jacket standing in for the toppers, which will be arriving to me tomorrow). I'd love your suggestions on which tops to take.
