Please do another video with alternatives since these items are not available 😊
This is really a great video. Thank you so much for sharing it! Is there any way that you can update the tops because the J. Crew and Michael Stars are no longer available. For example, what's the best white t-shirt for 2023?
Thank you so much for your help with finally understanding what a "capsule wardrobe" means. Now I can pull out 2-3 packing cubes, and pack for a 1-2 weeks in minutes. In winter, 2 pairs DKNY ponte pants, 1 pair faux-leather leggings, 2 light Merino wool sweaters, 2 Long Merino wool tops, 3 long silk camisoles. 2 light but dressy cardigans. The camis, underwear, socks, pajamas, 2 base layers, 3 colorful silk scarves, 2 statement necklaces, and 3 pairs earrings in 1 Compass Rose size cube. Add My lined ankle boots, my black, lined trench coat, favorite pashmina, cute wool hat, and I'm ready to go.
Hi Sierra, so pleased you found the video helpful! 😊 Your capsule wardrobe sounds perfect!!! Happy travels ❤️
I really love your videos. Right up my alley. I like when I can see the outfits on and put together if that’s not too much trouble I’d appreciate it. Thanks for great information.
Such great advice thankyou!
Thank you. I'm going on vacation in August. Maui, so your talk on what to take.
Thank you! Very helpful information. It really helped that you put the items, too, on so I could see the fit.
Glad you found it helpful Vikki, thank you! 😃
Love your energy. Thank you for the modeling!
You are so welcome!
Love your suggestions for various clothing items for travel. Great suggestions. What do you do about items to keep you warm and dry if travel in cooler and wetter climates.
You look adorable in the dress layered over everything!!
That is so lovely of you, thank you! ❤️
Thank you for sharing your anti-theft prevention method with us! 😃
Thanks Alex! I've been a fan for at least 6 years, have your book, and 3 pairs of Anatomie skylar pants, and 3 Rebecca Minkoff backpacks. I love everything you have suggested. You are living a great life, thanks for sharing!
That is so amazing Dianne!!! I am so happy to have been able to help! 💜
I liked your video. The one thing that would have been helpful is if you had inserted photos of yourself wearing the items without the bulk of the T-shirt and jeans underneath. I would have loved to see the mixes and matches and different styles.
Hi Lauren, if you would like to see photos of me wearing these items, head over to the TFG blog where we feature article reviews of these clothing items, including the Tippi: bit.ly/33SVLM6, the Anatomie Skyler Pants: bit.ly/2uoOHtY and the Leith Dress: bit.ly/33n86cv Hope this helps!
Thanks for the tips! I should try taking in the arm holes on one of my dresses. I like to wear natural fibers, so I love Merino wool clothes for travel. They're comfortable and line dry quickly. 🌺 Heidi
Hi Heidi, so pleased you enjoyed the video! 😊 Thank you for sharing your go-to clothes for travel with me!
Really like when you do these longer videos Alex. I remember when I first saw you, you did a tutorial for a group of women that was about an hour long and I loved every minute
Thank you!!!
Loved the video. I have so much to learn. Thank you.
Thank you, so pleased you found the video helpful! ❤️
Love the advice and great job. My girlfriends and I are in Santorini having flown in last week and we used some of the tips. We left our husbands at home so loving the Greek weather, scenery and...men!!! Lol
Glad it was helpful! Hope you had the most amazing time!!!! Sounds incredible 🥰
@@Travelfashiongirl my dear it was beyond amazing...paradise especially during these times and....I went on a date with a sexy Greek doctor and...omg lol.
Love all you have shared. Would like to know what blazer or jackets you would add. I like more coverage on my arms and do get cold.
Hi Pamela, thank you so much, so pleased you enjoyed the video! ❤️ Have a look at this article for our round up of the best blazers according to our readers: www.travelfashiongirl.com/best-travel-blazer/ Happy travels!
A good view. 💕
Thank you! 😃
Just purchased the bodycon dress from Nordy’s website; got gray and it’s on sale. Also, it was available for same day pick up at my local Nordy’s and it fits nicely. I’m a size 10 (5’6”) and got the Large. With the right underpinnings, it will look the way I would like it to look until I drop 10 lbs. The front hits just above my knee. Looking forward to using this as a travel staple for my weekly travel for work.
Hi Susan, yay how exciting!!!! Hope you will love your new dress as much as I do. Happy travels ❤️
On your advice I bought a merino wool sweater for travelling. One of the best pieces of clothing I have ever purchased. Have taken it to ten countries on two continents so far. Thank you.😊
Hi Helen, I am so pleased to hear that!!! 😊
Helen v Walker agreed!
I just found your channel. Bummer the T-shirt is sold out at JCrew. Curious if you have another option. I forever trying to find a good tshirt. Thanks!
Woww.. i cant wait.. #remindersquad
Hope you enjoy the video! 😊
@@Travelfashiongirl love it... Im on the same boat.. i love to buy multiple colours for the clothes i like.. tq for the video.. 💞💞💞
Love versatile clothes that do double duty work. I love anatomie. Was wondering what was the 15% code? I didn't see it in your description. Thanks!
Hi there, so do I!!! You can save 15% OFF when you use my exclusive link: anatomie.com/tfg-discount 😃
I was curious if the tee does that bra clinging bulge thing in the back that so many of the new materials do ?
Great ideas. I just looked at someone else's capsule wardrobe for travel, and she had several print tops and two print dresses. I think that is a big mistake, and I guess you do, too. Your wardrobe is so versatile and attractive. I loved when you put the dress on over your clothes!
Hi Debbie, thank you! You should always wear what makes you happy, what you feel good in, and what's comfortable for you! ❤️
Looking for some non short recommendations for Italy in early to mid September? I like skirts but will be going into museums and churches with dress codes.
Tracy Baker when I went to Israel, I had similar restrictions In Jerusalem. I wore athletic dresses with moisture wicking and lightweight sundresses and then put on a thin cotton layer on top when my shoulders needed to be covered. Because it was August I used a white sun wrap from coolibar. It worked perfectly.
I love wearing palazzo style pants in warm months, linen blend or cotton gauze. I pair them with slightly fitted but light, long-sleeve blouses, or camisoles with fitted, waist length, faux-wrap, long-sleeve tops.
Hi Tracy, this is a helpful guide for tips for what to pack for Italy: bit.ly/343hxwE For dresses in various styles, please visit this page for a full list: www.travelfashiongirl.com/travel-dresses/ Hope this helps. Have an amazing time! 😀
Would you please tell me the style of the Michael Stars blue top. I have looked, and I am not able to find it. Thanks for the great ideas.
Hi Sandie, it is the Michael Stars Drape Neck Jersey Top which you can find here: bit.ly/2QThn7L Unfortunately it is not available in that blue color at the moment. 🙁 But they are always updating and changing the colors available so keep your eye on Nordstrom!
The necklace is from H&M. I got one as well but I might have donated it.... Wished I saw your video earlier.....lol
Hi Polly, wow that is amazing!!!! I had completely forgotten where I purchased this necklace from as I have had it a while but always wanted to get another. Thank you so much for commenting!!! 😃 💕
Do you have suggestions for 3/4 and long sleeved tops as I find I'm more often in climates where I'm more comfortable in longer sleeves? Thank you for your help!
Hi there, these are our readers favorite brands for t-shirts, many of which are also available in longer sleeves: www.travelfashiongirl.com/best-white-t-shirt/
I would recommend that you join the TFG facebook group and post your question there: facebook.com/groups/travelfashiongirls/ It is an amazing community of fabulous women who have the best product recommendations to share. Hope this helps! 😃
@@Travelfashiongirl Thank you! I do access the FB group from time to time so will post my question there.
You’ve mentioned the Anatomie Kenya jacket before. The ones they have now have zippers that stands out quite a bit (not my favorite). They also have another one with darker zippers but it has a fleece lining. Have you ever tried that one? Don’t want anything too thick or too warm. Also, I am also short with an inverted triangle shape so prefer v-neck tops/dresses, if you have any recommendations that would be great. Great videos, btw.
Hi there, yes I have tried the fleece lined Kenya jacket. For overall travel and everyday wear, the regular one is awesome you can just throw it in your bag perfect for warm to mild weather. Super cute and versatile. The fleece jacket is good for cooler weather. Hope this helps answer your question! 😃
@@Travelfashiongirl I went ahead and purchased the regular one during the Black Friday sales. I think your suggestion of using it to layer is great. Thanks for the response!!
How tall are you? (Hahahahahaha! Just kidding!) I enjoyed your ideas and the styles you showed. I have very similar tops and pants that I pack, but I always make sure that I bring a long jersey skirt that I can wear as a maxi, a strapless dress, a beach cover up, and doubled up as a mini. I do the same with a large silk scarf--it becomes a top, skirt, necklace, head cover, dressing gown, etc. Like you suggest, I feel that having tops that look different from each other keeps the looks fresh, and especially since one tends to get most photographs from the waist up...the bottoms are less important. Thank you for this video!
Hi there, I am 5'2". So pleased you enjoyed the video! Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your travel capsule wardrobe with me. Happy travels! 😃
Fantastic and so helpful. BUT.......every clothing item linked was sold out!!!!! on J Crew. boo hoo
All items are sold out. Is there something similar?
Any type of clothes I can easily quickly wash dry fast and ready to wear next day? 🤔
Hi there, it is all to do with choosing the right fabric, learn more here: www.travelfashiongirl.com/how-to-choose-the-best-fabrics-for-travel/
For quick drying pants, we have a range of options here: www.travelfashiongirl.com/quick-dry-pants/

@@Travelfashiongirl thank you I appreciate your reply & suggestion website is quite helpful
Is there another travel pants that you can reccomend that is not so pricey?
I like betabrand

So bummed. J. Crew is not making this shirt anymore. They have other shirts, but they all fall short of this one. Ugh! What are they thinking!
I have very sensitive skin and usually can’t wear wool. Is the merino wool less itchy? Anyone with wool issues but can wear these?
Hi Sue, some our readers who usually can't wear wool find that they can with merino wool. BUT I think it is a individual preference and some people have more sensitive skin than others. If you are looking for an alternate fabric to merino wool, check out our readers recommendations here: www.travelfashiongirl.com/best-alternative-to-merino-wool/ Hope this helps! 😃
I love wearing Merino wool, I have very little itching, but other wool products I do get itching. I also found that wearing long silk camisoles helps when wearing any wool sweaters, tops, etc.
The ruched Leith dress was NOT on Nordstom's site.....boo hoo. I was ready to buy ALL items right away.
Alright already we get it JCrew Tee!!!!!! Too much time spent decided to just move on……..
Was enjoying your video, but you talk way too much describing just 2 tee shirts. Other bloggers have done a whole wardrobe by the time you finished talking about 2 simple tee shirts. I wanted to see the pants but you lost me.. 🙄
