I love Talbots. I started shopping from Talbots in 1978. After living in different regions of our country I know they will always have appropriate colors and styles available. My black is navy due to my coloring so from year to year I know that Talbots navy will not change, allowing me to add to my existing closet. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I always look forward to your upbeat, thoughtful and inspirational videos! 💕
Great capsule, Kay! I’ve been a Talbots shopper for about ten years now and I love their consistent quality. You made some great outfits from the pieces you selected. So excited for you that you’re going to England in August! It’s my second home and there are so many wonderful things to do, see and eat! Hugs from 🌺 Mary in Florida.
Kay, the color of the capsule is stunning! You look great in all of the outfits. Travel capsule is such a practical tool for packing. I went to UK for business for 10 days a few weeks ago. I picked black, grey, red colors for the outfits. I mapped them out and packed them all in one carry on suitcase, which also includes a beige coat, two pairs of shoes. I did wear all the clothes (except underware of cause)twice in different combinations. No waste of any piece. A total success.
I really enjoyed this Talbot's spring travel capsule, Kay! The combination of the colours, cut & fit look vibrant on you! This capsule really sparked feelings of joy. 😊
I was a teacher, and I shopped at Talbots all the time. After I retired, I stopped, but you have brought me back. I just recently bought 2 pair of their flare pants. I wanted to buy that style, but was unable to find much that was wearable at Nordstrom or even Dillards. Wearable to me means washable and comfortable. I am also 5’ 8” so pant length is often a deciding factor. Thank you. I love that blue..
Those black travel pants from Talbots are dreamy! I invested in a pair (on sale) after your recommendation and I call them my “Kay” pants. They are perfection!! Thank you!!
Love this! I always build my travel wardrobe around the colors black and white. One thing I try to do is make sure my jackets have a hood. They are hard to find but I don't like to pack an umbrella especially when traveling abroad. I LOVE that you were holding an atlas in the opening scene. I still keep one in my car. I use my GPS but a RAND McNALLY is a reliable back up!
Hahaha! My husband and I had a good laugh about the atlas. I wondered if anybody would remember what they are. But then I remembered the age of my viewers and knew you all would. 😉
I have one too! Love looking at those big atlases when planning a trip! I've read that maps are coming back with Gen Z. 😀My Gen Z kids laugh, but you never know.
Kay, I'm fond of every single one of your posts -blogs, videos and scriptures/meditations. I can see that I could save myself needless aggravation by packing minimally. I can do this! I will do this! Thank you and happy travels!!
I just recently found and of course subscribed to your 'blog'. I live in Canada and I am in my seventies. I feel happy to learn from someone with advice for a mature women. You are a delight to listen to and emulate. Thank you
This video was just what I needed! I love the idea of a capsule in a focused palette for travel. I love the black, white, and blue-perfect! And the sale was still on-I used your link. 💙
Great colors - the blue is a real pop with the black and white. Living in Massachusetts, the Talbots look is all around - it's quintessential New England Preppy!
Hi Kay. I love your videos. My husband is from Maine and there is no finer place in the world to take a summer vacation than the coast of Maine! Just one suggestion for your beautiful capsule wardrobe. Mark Twain said “if you don’t like the weather in New England, wait a few minutes”. That is absolutely true! I would recommend that you add an umbrella and a nice warm wool sweater. The cotton sweater you are planning on would be great too but there is nothing like wool for warmth. Maine can still be quite chilly in June. If you happen to go out on the ocean along the coast it is always cold, even though it might be warm onshore. The best days of my life have been spent in a boat on the coast of Maine with my husband. I hope you get to experience that as well. The coast of Maine is so interesting and dotted with islands and wildlife and absolute beauty. LL Beans has great wool sweaters year round I love Talbots but I am not sure they have much in the line of wool sweaters this time of year. I hope you have a wonderful time in Maine. Maybe you could make a vlog of it for us. I think people would really enjoy that. My husband and I plan a week on a different part of the Maine coast every summer and even though I have been to some pretty exotic places in my life it is our week on the coast of Maine that I have enjoyed the most of any . When you cross the border intoMaine there is a big sign that says “Maine, the way life should be.” It may not always be the easiest place to make a living but I think it is one of the best places on earth for a summer vacation. Have a grand time!
I love the outfits you came up with for travel, Kay! Talbots is my favorite place to shop and their biscayne blue color is beautiful! I have some of this color from last year, and I'll be getting several of the items you showed. It works well for cool skin tones like mine. :)
Yes, it’s a beautiful color. And I’m so glad that they’ve carried it for at least two years now. I hope they continue to extend some of their colors that way. So helpful.
Kay, you are so soothing to watch! That is a very flattering lip color! I'm from Maine! Have fun in my favorite park, Acadia! What a treat if our paths crossed!
We’re really looking forward to it. I’ve been to Acadia once for a couple of days and it rained the entire time we were there. But we’ll be there for a full week this time so I figure we’ll surely get at least a couple of great days. 😉
I’m a big Talbots fan too! Classics style that last with each season. Talbots always gives you choices to refresh what you have purchased from previous years with new trendier style. I’m retired, 69 yrs young, 5’3” size 10-12, live in NWFl and find the horizontal strips are not for me anymore . Can you address in a video soon? Thank you.
Yes, the Pacific NW DOES wear muted tones and neutrals. The funny thing is that I live here but didn’t realize this fact! We were sitting in the back of the church and I looked around and I was the only one in magenta! My son says I never noticed before because I teach in an elementary school where these “rules” don’t apply! I love your blog and videos.
the look is stunning, lots of outfits with few pieces. i take 3-4 scarves in different colors that adds another complimenting color to my basic pieces. i can see , lime green, another print scarf with many tones of color. an after 5 scarf to elevate those pieces to a dressy night out.. thanks for the wonderful tips. i find doing a color capsule as you suggest, certainly makes dressing less stressful...
I would have never worn this blue with black…..But it works and looks so elegant! I have a couple trips planned this summer and am going to try and pack using only 1 carry on luggage and a backpack! Wish me luck. My colors will consist of; black, white and throw in a few colors and mix and match! It’s gonna be a challenge for me to take so little. Another great video Kay.
I'm trying to get mine into one suitcase for London for sure. And I'll probably try to do that when I go to Georgia for a couple of weeks, too. We'll see!
I agree with deciding what to wear by weather and outdoors coats, especially up here in Canada! Also would add a white high collar shirt to wear under all the sweaters.
Good morning Kay just writing you to let you know I love your new haircut. Looks so pretty on you and thank you for all the information you give us about clothing for women over 50. Keep up the good work. God bless you. Linda 🙏🏻
Mixing and matching is so much fun. I'd probably just bring one pair of white pants and one pair of black travel pants, and add in a pair of neutral linen pants. And I'd wear light blue instead of bright cobalt for the color. Bar Harbor/Acadia is so beautiful. I was there in my 20s and we did a good deal of hiking around on the pink granite hills!
This couldn't have come at a better time. This Oregon girl is heading down south to AZ for some sun and spring training baseball. Considering that it actually snowed here at home today...I'm ditching the sweats and sweatshirts for short sleeves and capri pants and some open toed sandals. Can't wait!!! Thank you, Kay!
I was surprised with the Black/White for Spring at Talbots; the butterfly theme is beautiful. I normally only wear in black pants (occasionally), shoes, and depending on outfit purse as I gravitate to navy. My pick is the butterfly toille blouse. Great combinations. I live in Miami, FL so their pima cotton t-shirt is the upscaled go to for me.
I am travelling soon out of the country and I am taking both of the same coats/jackets you have chosen! Yahoo! I am keeping my wardrobe to Neutral, black, white, and Navy colors!
I do most of my shopping at Talbots. I have been looking at the black and ivory butterfly pieces. I do have several pieces in Biscayne blue that I got last spring and summer. I love their sweatshirts too. Thank you for the video. I need to check out the travel pants.
I love the quality, the fit of every garment and the beauty of each design the Talbot has. My favorite brand! Great video. You look AMAZING in each outfit. Blessings to you and your family and safe travels dear sister!!! 🌹🌸🏵
Hi Kay, So excited for you and your husband’s trip to Maine. Your capsule wardrobe looks fantastic on you and with added tees should be perfect. Thank you for sharing-I love classic style and Talbots usually has a lot to choose from.
I’m one of those from the Pacific Northwest who wears more subtle colors. Talbots color is just way too bright for me! But occasionally I will find something in navy that I like 😉
Hi Kay. Love your haircut! This is a great color palette for travel. I'm planning my outfits for a trip to Spain so your video is right on time for me. I checked out those travel pants as they looks so nice but they are made of nylon and spandex and that's not a good combination for me, it makes me sweat. I'm on the hunt for nice travel pants made of more breathable fabrics. I have a black and white knee length jacket from Talbots I may bring with me.
Dear Kay, I loved this travel capsule because black, white and royal blue are often my travel colors. But--four pairs of shoes? I did Europe last summer with one pair of sandals and one pair of black Trac shoes!
A great travel wardrobe that would suit so many of us. Thanks for the ideas. Will have to check everything out at Talbot’s. You are sure to have a wonderful time in Maine - it’s so beautiful! And cool. Weather-wise cool, I mean. 😊
Good morning, Kay. The color combinations are beautiful. I really like the blue trench coat. My husband and I visited Bar Harbor, Maine and we absolutely loved it! Acadia National Park is amazing. If you are going to hike in the park, I would recommend having a good solid tread on your shoes. If you like lobster, add having a lobster roll on your "to do" list. I also have been shopping at Talbot's for over 30 years. I have two pairs of their joggers (navy and black) that I love traveling in. I will have to look into the traveler's pant. Thanks for your styling inspiration.
Thanks so much for sharing, Diane. Yes, we have good hiking shoes and are so excited to do a little hiking in Acadia. I’ve been before, but it rained the whole two days I was there. We’ll be there a week this time so I trust we’ll have at least one or two good weather days. 😉
Love the Spring capsule that you are going to use on your trip! You showed the black, white, and biscayne blue last week and I loved the combination then too. I have some biscayne blue pieces from Talbots last year to add to a piece or two this year! Oh, so chic!
Thank you for covering these new spring Talbots items! Was interested in seeing how the Bristol pants worked for someone…. Very nice. Also, I had a double breasted trench jacket identical to that Bristol blue one in a bright green about 20 years ago. So sorry I got rid of it!
Loved all your outfits. That blue is a gorgeous colour. I'm going to North Wales in May, so will have to be prepared for anything! I think I'll plan my capsule around my bright pink waterproof jacket.
Good morning ,Kay, thank you, so much for this capsule travel video. U , look great , in all the outfits, and they r so elegant and fitting you, perfectly. Thanks again, for all the enlightenment. 👍🙏🥰👏🌟💫❤️✝️🌷☘️
Brenda McKey This was such a helpful video for any type of travel. I too enjoy Talbots, but you made me aware of some items I have never considered and they looked so attractive on you! Thanks for all the helpful tips on packing for my next trip. 🌷🌸😎
Hi Kay, This is one of the best travel capsule videos I've seen!! That blue color looks good on mostly everyone and actually most of these pieces can be worn year round in some places. Although these pieces are not inexpensive I believe they will really last! I am going to buy some of these pieces and maybe wait for some to go on sale.
Hi Kay I love your travel capsule wardrobe. The colors are beautiful and so very workable for travel. I have the long travel pants also but I do plan to get the shorter ones also since they look so wonderful on you!
I really loved the blue that you chose as your signature color! I already have many of those pieces, although not from Talbots, but you can rest assured I will check Talbots out this week! You are going to love Maine and all it has to offer. It is really a beautiful state. Have fun! We are traveling to New Orleans at the end of April, so your video came in just in the nick of time!
We're traveling to Maine in mid-May! Enjoyed this video! I LOVE the gingham topper jacket and the Breton stripe tee. I'm going with navy blue/jeans for my colors. I've never shopped Talbots but I'm going to pop into the website. Enjoy your trip!
Excited you are coming to my home state of Maine! One piece of advise is jeans! Maine is an extremely casual place! A date night for me is nice jeans and a pretty top! Re: colors I don’t know… I know if you wear camo you’ll fit in LOL! You are so stylish and chic you will stand out sorry! Have fun and June is a toss up weather wise! But at least the snow will be gone! Love your channel and you have really helped me think about what I wear!
Exactly what I was thinking as I watched this. I thought oh my, Kay must be going to all those expensive coastal restaurants and shops! We don't live in Maine but my sister does and we have visited there countless times for years! I think of Maine as being much more casual than this. Climbing around on those coastal rocks requires more hardy clothing! To each her own! And I'd be taking a much warmer, cozier coat. But those Maine lupines in June! To die for!
This capsule wasn’t just for my trip to Maine. 😉 Just fun ideas. I think I did mention adding jeans. But really this was just meant to be a fun way to share some of Talbots’ new fashions. We’re mostly hiking and enjoying the VRBO we’ve rented - nothing fancy. I won’t be taking all of this on my trip. Just a fun set of ideas to take what you want from. 🥰
Those clothes were gorgeous! Wish we had one up here! I will have to check out their online store! Hope the weather is nice for you in June! If we get lucky maybe it will be warm! Regardless your style is so chic and classy! I have no idea what my style is! LOL
Hi Cathy. My nail polish is a gel they use only at Paint Nail Bars and I’m not sure the name. But my lipstick is this one in Candy. rstyle.me/cz-n/hmrqhfchvkf
Hi Kathryn. I’m coming on holiday and we’ll be in London the whole time. I do hope to get out into the countryside some, too. I’m not real familiar with the area of course. But I’m going with a woman who leads trips for women annually. I’m very excited!
Kay those black pants with the zippers for the pockets and legs, don't that zipper beep when you go through security at the airport, just curious I know under wire bras beep through security
Thanks Kay, very useful for my 6 day trip later this month to Dublin and Belfast, where it's generally wetter and colder than London (and we have had a bit of snow today). Just a carry-on bag so a micro-capsule required! Great to know you plan to visit England. To be honest, in August it could be in the 60s and raining, or in the high 90s and a drought! Talbots used to be in a town near me but they apparently left the UK some years ago. I love your Wednesday videos and often take notes.
Hahaha! I don’t have that kind of influence. What about it do you find to be old and outdated? I’d love to know. I actually find it very easy to navigate and like it so much better than some I’ve visited. I’d really love to know your thoughts.
Just an FYI, the graphic tee that you are wearing is not a beach motif. It is, in fact, a Dutch scene with tulips and a windmill. Talbots has labeled it as "Keukenhof' in honor of the spring flower show for the Dutch floricultural sector.
Wow you are tall! Im not sure about any of your pant leg lengths. It shortens the leg and on me they would not do me any favors. Im going for the longer length
I quit shopping at Talbots because of their quality and style and fit. I realized I ended up throwing out most things I bought there. I am a trim 5'8" 128 lb 74 yr old woman who wants to dress in a classy and elegant manner so no Talbots for me. Still like your videos though.
Susan, I know what you mean. I like the look of Talbots clothes and went there many times, trying on many things, trying to buy something that I like. It was hard to find things flattering me. Their clothes are not designed for trim and slender body types. The fit is always a little too loose for me. The top would fit me on the shoulder, too loose on the waist and arms. The pants never fits right at waist and hip (usually when one place fits, the other one doesn't). But the clothes always look so beautiful and appealing , I kept going back trying to find something fit every year. Finally I gave up and admit it is not a brand for me.
@@carlsenlifeafter60carlsen11 My go to are Black and white, Ann Taylor, Loft, Banana Republic, J-crew (for some items). These brands cut closer to body but not tight and fit me better.
Capsule wardrobe idea seems restrictive and takes the joy out of clothing and fashion for me. Maybe that's just me but I think I'm not alone. It's more fun and freeing to find interesting pieces that are unique and don't necessarily work with 15 other items in your closet.
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms Don't you have an entire playlist of 16 videos on the Capsule Wardrobe topic? Not trying to be snarky, just clarifying my comment.
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms 🤔It is clear you're very much a proponent of the Capsule Wardrobe is my point. Right? It's not for everyone and that's okay!
I’m a proponent of having a wardrobe that mixes and matches. Yes. I’m not one to have an extremely limited wardrobe myself. I just like to narrow down my colors so that it works together well. That’s all.
Maine..I'm from Maine..pretty in the summer. Friendly people with great manners.
I love Talbots. I started shopping from Talbots in 1978. After living in different regions of our country I know they will always have appropriate colors and styles available. My black is navy due to my coloring so from year to year I know that Talbots navy will not change, allowing me to add to my existing closet.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I always look forward to your upbeat, thoughtful and inspirational videos! 💕
Thanks so much. I’m really glad you enjoyed it. I like the consistency of colors at Talbots, too. 😊
I love Talbots. The majority of my wardrobe is from there. I appreciate that they offer classic styles in plus size.
Great to hear. Thanks so much for watching. 💕
Great capsule, Kay! I’ve been a Talbots shopper for about ten years now and I love their consistent quality. You made some great outfits from the pieces you selected.

Hi Kay. I love your videos. My husband is from Maine and there is no finer place in the world to take a summer vacation than the coast of Maine! Just one suggestion for your beautiful capsule wardrobe. Mark Twain said “if you don’t like the weather in New England, wait a few minutes”. That is absolutely true! I would recommend that you add an umbrella and a nice warm wool sweater. The cotton sweater you are planning on would be great too but there is nothing like wool for warmth. Maine can still be quite chilly in June. If you happen to go out on the ocean along the coast it is always cold, even though it might be warm onshore. The best days of my life have been spent in a boat on the coast of Maine with my husband. I hope you get to experience that as well. The coast of Maine is so interesting and dotted with islands and wildlife and absolute beauty.

Thanks Kay. I love Talbot's and everything you put together for travel. Love your spring color palette as well. ❤️
Thank you so much, Mary Ann. 💕
I’m one of those from the Pacific Northwest who wears more subtle colors. Talbots color is just way too bright for me! But occasionally I will find something in navy that I like 😉
Me too! Especially when it snowed today. 😂
Hi Kay. Love your haircut! This is a great color palette for travel. I'm planning my outfits for a trip to Spain so your video is right on time for me. I checked out those travel pants as they looks so nice but they are made of nylon and spandex and that's not a good combination for me, it makes me sweat. I'm on the hunt for nice travel pants made of more breathable fabrics. I have a black and white knee length jacket from Talbots I may bring with me.
Wonderful! Have a great trip. 😊
Dear Kay, I loved this travel capsule because black, white and royal blue are often my travel colors. But--four pairs of shoes? I did Europe last summer with one pair of sandals and one pair of black Trac shoes!
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video and the color choices. I think the number of shoes required just really depends on your activities. 😊
A great travel wardrobe that would suit so many of us. Thanks for the ideas. Will have to check everything out at Talbot’s. You are sure to have a wonderful time in Maine - it’s so beautiful! And cool. Weather-wise cool, I mean. 😊
Wonderful! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video. 🥰
Good morning, Kay. The color combinations are beautiful. I really like the blue trench coat. My husband and I visited Bar Harbor, Maine and we absolutely loved it! Acadia National Park is amazing. If you are going to hike in the park, I would recommend having a good solid tread on your shoes. If you like lobster, add having a lobster roll on your "to do" list. I also have been shopping at Talbot's for over 30 years. I have two pairs of their joggers (navy and black) that I love traveling in. I will have to look into the traveler's pant. Thanks for your styling inspiration.
Thanks so much for sharing, Diane. Yes, we have good hiking shoes and are so excited to do a little hiking in Acadia. I’ve been before, but it rained the whole two days I was there. We’ll be there a week this time so I trust we’ll have at least one or two good weather days. 😉
Thanks for always be on top your followers need! This video is for me!!!
Perfect! I’m so glad it met a need. 😊
Every item is so well thought out and lovely, thank you Kay!
You bet! Thanks for watching!
Love the Spring capsule that you are going to use on your trip! You showed the black, white, and biscayne blue last week and I loved the combination then too. I have some biscayne blue pieces from Talbots last year to add to a piece or two this year! Oh, so chic!
Yes, I love that they have had this particular color for at least a couple of years now. Thanks for watching, Sherry. 😊
Thank you for covering these new spring Talbots items! Was interested in seeing how the Bristol pants worked for someone…. Very nice. Also, I had a double breasted trench jacket identical to that Bristol blue one in a bright green about 20 years ago. So sorry I got rid of it!
Oh my. I have regrets like that too. I’ve pretty much learned never to get rid of classics unless it has something wrong with it. But it happens! 😉
I love biscayne blue! I also think it is a good idea to have some state maps in addition to GPS
Me too!
Loved this try on. You looked great in each one!
Thank you, Mary. I’m so glad you enjoyed it.
Love all your outfits! I have a style appt this Saturday at Talbots, can’t wait to try on some of the things you showed in your video.
Wonderful! Have a blast. 🛍️
Loved all your outfits. That blue is a gorgeous colour. I'm going to North Wales in May, so will have to be prepared for anything! I think I'll plan my capsule around my bright pink waterproof jacket.
Perfect! I hope you have a great trip. 🙌🏻
Loved this, Kay! Thanks so much!
Thank you! 😊
Good morning ,Kay, thank you, so much for this capsule travel video.
U , look great , in all the outfits, and they r so elegant and fitting you, perfectly.
Thanks again, for all the enlightenment. 👍🙏🥰👏🌟💫❤️✝️🌷☘️
Thank you for watching, Rachel. Blessings to you! 💕💙🌷

This was such a helpful video for any type of travel. I too enjoy Talbots, but you made me aware of some items I have never considered and they looked so attractive on you! Thanks for all the helpful tips on packing for my next trip. 🌷🌸😎
I always think it helps to see how garments and wear and move on other people. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Great colors
💙🖤🤍
Hi Kay, This is one of the best travel capsule videos I've seen!! That blue color looks good on mostly everyone and actually most of these pieces can be worn year round in some places. Although these pieces are not inexpensive I believe they will really last! I am going to buy some of these pieces and maybe wait for some to go on sale.
Great! I think you will like them. 💙
Hi Kay
I love your travel capsule wardrobe. The colors are beautiful and so very workable for travel. I have the long travel pants also but I do plan to get the shorter ones also since they look so wonderful on you!
I think you’ll really like them. Thanks for watching. 😊
gorgeous choices!
🥰
I really loved the blue that you chose as your signature color! I already have many of those pieces, although not from Talbots, but you can rest assured I will check Talbots out this week! You are going to love Maine and all it has to offer. It is really a beautiful state. Have fun! We are traveling to New Orleans at the end of April, so your video came in just in the nick of time!
Perfect. Yes, we are really looking forward to the trip. We’ve been before, but it’s been a while. 💕
We're traveling to Maine in mid-May! Enjoyed this video! I LOVE the gingham topper jacket and the Breton stripe tee. I'm going with navy blue/jeans for my colors. I've never shopped Talbots but I'm going to pop into the website. Enjoy your trip!
Wonderful! It’s a great state to visit. I’ve been several times and just love it. 🌿
Excited you are coming to my home state of Maine! One piece of advise is jeans! Maine is an extremely casual place! A date night for me is nice jeans and a pretty top! Re: colors I don’t know… I know if you wear camo you’ll fit in LOL! You are so stylish and chic you will stand out sorry! Have fun and June is a toss up weather wise! But at least the snow will be gone! Love your channel and you have really helped me think about what I wear!
Exactly what I was thinking as I watched this. I thought oh my, Kay must be going to all those expensive coastal restaurants and shops! We don't live in Maine but my sister does and we have visited there countless times for years! I think of Maine as being much more casual than this. Climbing around on those coastal rocks requires more hardy clothing! To each her own! And I'd be taking a much warmer, cozier coat. But those Maine lupines in June! To die for!
Loved all the outfits. Thank you, Kay!
This capsule wasn’t just for my trip to Maine. 😉 Just fun ideas. I think I did mention adding jeans. But really this was just meant to be a fun way to share some of Talbots’ new fashions. We’re mostly hiking and enjoying the VRBO we’ve rented - nothing fancy. I won’t be taking all of this on my trip. Just a fun set of ideas to take what you want from. 🥰
Those clothes were gorgeous! Wish we had one up here! I will have to check out their online store! Hope the weather is nice for you in June! If we get lucky maybe it will be warm! Regardless your style is so chic and classy! I have no idea what my style is! LOL
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms Wherever you go, whatever you do, and whatever you wear, enjoy Maine!
I really enjoyed this! Could you do one in the early fall! We are headed to New England in Oct.
Maybe so! That will be a wonderful trip! 🍁🍂
Your cut looks very nice..Really Cute..
Thanks Kay! 🏷🎒👚
💙
Hi Kay! Could you share your lipstick and nailpolish names and brands? Thanks, Cathy
Hi Cathy. My nail polish is a gel they use only at Paint Nail Bars and I’m not sure the name. But my lipstick is this one in Candy. rstyle.me/cz-n/hmrqhfchvkf
Nice to know you are coming to my home country, England. May I ask if you are working or holidays?
And which counties you might visit?
Hi Kathryn. I’m coming on holiday and we’ll be in London the whole time. I do hope to get out into the countryside some, too. I’m not real familiar with the area of course. But I’m going with a woman who leads trips for women annually. I’m very excited!
Kay those black pants with the zippers for the pockets and legs, don't that zipper beep when you go through security at the airport, just curious I know under wire bras beep through security
Nope, never had that problem. 😉
Hi Kay. How long a trip was your travel wardrobe based on? It just seems like a LOT of clothing to take. Thanks for clarifying.
I’m going to be gone for two weeks, but these are just options. Not really a set capsule. 😉
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms thank you!
Kay, I am heading to Ireland next month and feel jackets and coats always need an option of a hood. Do yours?
Neither of these do, but Talbots has a lovely one that does. This one in pink rstyle.me/cz-n/hna4kzchvkf
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms Thank you!
Thanks Kay, very useful for my 6 day trip later this month to Dublin and Belfast, where it's generally wetter and colder than London (and we have had a bit of snow today). Just a carry-on bag so a micro-capsule required! Great to know you plan to visit England. To be honest, in August it could be in the 60s and raining, or in the high 90s and a drought! Talbots used to be in a town near me but they apparently left the UK some years ago. I love your Wednesday videos and often take notes.
Have a great trip, Janet. I really hope to visit Ireland someday. 🌿
Hi Kay, please use what influence you have with Talbots to get them to update their web site. It’s so old and outdated. Please!!!!
Hahaha! I don’t have that kind of influence. What about it do you find to be old and outdated? I’d love to know. I actually find it very easy to navigate and like it so much better than some I’ve visited. I’d really love to know your thoughts.
Just an FYI, the graphic tee that you are wearing is not a beach motif. It is, in fact, a Dutch scene with tulips and a windmill. Talbots has labeled it as "Keukenhof' in honor of the spring flower show for the Dutch floricultural sector.
Hahaha! I know. I just couldn’t remember at the time I was talking about it. 🌷🌷🌷
Frumpy
I love classic styles, but Talbots makes a lot of them into mature clothes, I don’t like the 3/4-length sleeves and long tops to be worn like tunics.
I couldn't agree more!
Please ditch the black check coat.I love all of the other combinations but that black check coat is a no, no. Love your videos x
I love the black plaid coat and have worn it a lot this spring. Please don’t tell me to ditch something. I would never tell you to do so. ☺️
Wow you are tall! Im not sure about any of your pant leg lengths. It shortens the leg and on me they would not do me any favors. Im going for the longer length
I quit shopping at Talbots because of their quality and style and fit. I realized I ended up throwing out most things I bought there. I am a trim 5'8" 128 lb 74 yr old woman who wants to dress in a classy and elegant manner so no Talbots for me. Still like your videos though.
Susan, I know what you mean. I like the look of Talbots clothes and went there many times, trying on many things, trying to buy something that I like. It was hard to find things flattering me. Their clothes are not designed for trim and slender body types. The fit is always a little too loose for me. The top would fit me on the shoulder, too loose on the waist and arms. The pants never fits right at waist and hip (usually when one place fits, the other one doesn't). But the clothes always look so beautiful and appealing , I kept going back trying to find something fit every year. Finally I gave up and admit it is not a brand for me.
Where do you like to shop?
@@carlsenlifeafter60carlsen11 My go to are Black and white, Ann Taylor, Loft, Banana Republic, J-crew (for some items). These brands cut closer to body but not tight and fit me better.
Capsule wardrobe idea seems restrictive and takes the joy out of clothing and fashion for me. Maybe that's just me but I think I'm not alone. It's more fun and freeing to find interesting pieces that are unique and don't necessarily work with 15 other items in your closet.
Well this is for travel. So you are generally limited to what you can carry in your suitcase 🤷🏼♀️
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms Don't you have an entire playlist of 16 videos on the Capsule Wardrobe topic? Not trying to be snarky, just clarifying my comment.
I do indeed. I just wanted to clarify the intent of this one. 😊
@@DressedforMyDaywithKayHarms 🤔It is clear you're very much a proponent of the Capsule Wardrobe is my point. Right? It's not for everyone and that's okay!
I’m a proponent of having a wardrobe that mixes and matches. Yes. I’m not one to have an extremely limited wardrobe myself. I just like to narrow down my colors so that it works together well. That’s all.
