      I like everything but what about underwear? Is that one sports bra and one short is the only underwear you brought? What about panties? Do you not wear panties? I live in a hot climate and I change my underwear at least 2 times a day. Wearing a pantie whole day disgust me

      @@AlyssaBeltempo I agree, the "avoid black to a wedding" rule is more like don't look like you're going to funerals. Your corset top was perfect to add a "having fun" vibe to your look and avoid the "I'm mourning my friend who is getting married" kind of look.
      Also, to get a more formal vibe to your T-shirt on a long sleeved sweater, you could put on your sun glasses or knot the t-shirt. Or both.

    • @danishpastry6137
      @danishpastry6137 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Black to a wedding is probably a bit outdated, but it comes down to your hosts, if they're fine with it then no problem! I have worn black to a wedding, a black dress with a beautiful flower print placed to one side - my shoes picked out one of the colours. I've also seen many people wear black, and I agree as long as it's not funereal, it's okay - yours was great and definitely not an outfit for that other big life event.

    • @ms-lc1gr
      @ms-lc1gr ปีที่แล้ว +19

      If I got on a plane to get to your wedding and you're upset about my wearing black , rather than happy about the fact that I made it there, no matter what I'm wearing, you're no longer my friend! What if the airlines had lost my luggage, am I then uninvited to the wedding?

    • @danishpastry6137
      @danishpastry6137 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      @@ms-lc1gr I'd say it'd be (older?) guests, who'd point it out (not necessarily in a horrible way, but more as a heads up) rather than the couple themselves - the bride and groom are probably so caught up in the moment it wouldn't have registered. But yes, I'd agree with you that it shouldn't be something to be upset about - it's just one of those etiquette rules that most people know about (in the UK) and are surprised when it's broken, precisely because most people know about it, even if they don't follow that rule.

    FYI, a classic way to add a pop of color while packing light is bringing a bold red lipstick! I really loved the white button-up OVER the black top and how it was styled partially buttoned/tucked! Another pairing that would have been cool is the white button down layered under the bustier! I like how these outfits use playing with contrast as a way to make for the lack of color! On that note, perhaps playing with mixing the gold tone jewelry with some silver tone jewelry could be a another good way to bring in some contrast and variation.

    Alyssa, your style and slow fashion approach, along with your capsule travel wardrobes have been inspired me to change my approach to shopping, both in sustainability and stylistic choices. It enabled me to pack, for the very first time, for a 2 week Europe trip with only a small carryon. Needless to say, my husband and friends were impressed and I even surprised myself with how little I really needed and the versatility of the right pieces!

    I live in a temperate climate. When you put the trench coat on over the cozy blazer you blew my mind. I always wear one or the other and then pack one in my luggage. It had never occurred to me to wear them together to get thru the airport. In fact, I actually paused the video, got up and tried several blazers on under my trench. Amazing! I always assumed the sleeves of the trench were too narrow, but even some of my oversized blazers fit. Thanks!

  • @nicolehood6408
    @nicolehood6408 ปีที่แล้ว

    This has inspired me to go through the "don't currently fit" clothing pieces, and create "essentials" capsules like this. I know I can let go of a LOT of quantity and begin to truly live within the architecturally small closet I have, yet still have plenty to wear when I'm back in my "real" size. Plus, many other people can be clothed in what is currently languishing. I agree with the commenter who said you literally can't make too many of these types of videos. They are always helpful, and I love seeing the variety of outfits you create with the items you packed.

We wear white to funerals, so I took a long, flowy off white linen skirt, a thin off white cashmere sweater, a short, tailored black wool jacket, and tall black boots. Also brought a pair of jeans, a merino base, and a wool sweater. Everything did double duty! Smart to take vitamins to prevent from getting a cold, I also too C and zinc.

    I'm going to Milan for just four days with one backpack. I find your video very helpful and inspiring! Thank you!

    Thank you for unmuddling my mind. Leaving for a trip and you helped me organize my suitcase.

    Such a well done video! You should be proud; it's challenging to pack put together outfits in a small carry on. I haven't checked a bag for almost 20 years. My biggest accomplishment was packing for a 12 day Baltic cruise in a 20 inch carry on. Yes, I was proud too. 🙂

    Love the video and your clever use of a limited number of items. I agree that your pretty flowered scarf would have added a pop of color and personality.

    Oh my! I found that same beaded money pouch at a thrift store in the US. Mine is slightly smaller but it fits my ID/card holder, money, gum and such. Love the design and colors!

    I’m Impressed that the jeans held up so well for almost entire trip. If you carried on the coat and jacket and layered clothing that explains how everything fit in bag.

    As a regular traveller for work, between France and the UK I can say.....that backpack...is bloody impressive!!!!

    All great looks! You were brave to pack so minimally…bravo! For your Gucci scarf: I also worry about stuffing my special scarves any which way so I found an old silk pouch into which I pack my scarves when I travel. It keeps them tidy and small and protected. Love your vlogs Alissa ❤

    I think the key to packing lightly an stylishly is to make sure everything can layer or go together. Strong basics!
