Teal and Camel for a Long Weekend

Camel is such a versatile neutral! These are the camel garments that I showed a few days earlier, looking quite lovely with deep teal blue.

And please, if you can't click through on product links, let me know!  I can't click through them myself, from my computer, because they recognize me as the link creator (don't ask me why I don't get to see them myself, but I don't...)  I will repair broken links as quickly as possible, if you let me know!  Thanks, Janice

The "Triple Top" Secret also works at home...

So the idea of carefully choosing a "cluster" of shirts and sweaters, to give yourself some layering options, also works well if you have to dress warmly but a bit nicely...

When you have to have a few options for holiday or party attire, this is also an approach to consider.

 As before, I find it striking that if you commit yourself to a favorite color, and carefully assemble a few outfits to reflect this preference, you then have  - almost without trying - assembled a travel capsule wardrobe.  Yes, there are a lot of shoes here, but they're mostly rather flat, and would pack easily.  Three scarves, three pieces of jewelry, and you have dozens of options!
