That black and white dress immediately reminded me of Grace Kelly's stunning black and white dress in "Rear Window." In other words--keeper!

[@jeanneewaseck6635]

Iconic! that's what I thought when I saw it in the thumbnail! . . . The earthquake in NYC (a) was felt as far into NJ as the central part of the state and down around Camden! (b) knocked-out GPS that was needed in Baltimore, Maryland!!! I know those things from persons that I know in all those areas. Here in Va., nothing; our earthquakes are usually caused by fracking.

[@heavenj7]

It’s a love!!! Soooo classy! Elegant

[@sarahstubbsdahl]

Hi Taylor - I live half my time in Cape Town🇿🇦 I’ve been watching your channel for years! Absolutely love your content.. When I heard you were heading our side of the world for your honeymoon I was so excited for you! It’s such an amazing place and Safari is the BEST! My husband and I actually had our wedding at a Safari lodge- so have a fair bit of experience going on a few! In terms of weather- it’s a bit tricky to say because obviously you are used to NY winters but it can get pretty cold. The wind and rain factor is not a joke.. if I was you I would pack layering pieces just for those days when it’s maybe a little colder. Also be prepared for potential rain. We often get all seasons in 1 day.. In terms of the safari- I think you seem to have it down. Neutral colours are a must and I always like to be somewhat comfortable but you can definitely still be stylish (if that makes sense) I find linen to be the best to wear - the game vehicles are pretty comfortable and they will usually give blankets and ponchos for the cold and rain ☺️ For dinners in CT, items like that reformation dress are perfect (which is gorgeous by the way) - I love getting all dressed up for dinners and there are some amazing restaurants in Cape Town.. Also- for your outfit planning- I would suggest looking at the app Indyx. I use it ALL the time to plan outfits and packing lists! It’s so helpful

[@TaylorMorello]

Thank you this is incredibly helpful!! I’ll definitely pack layers and plan for the rain. And I’m so happy to hear the reformation dress is perfect! Thank you!! 🙌🏻

[@delmorrow896]

The silk pants are giving pajama bottoms, IMHO - maybe not the best choice for traveling. I hope that any hats you might purchase are very foldable to fit into a suitcase. Same with bags - as small and flat as possible - a crossbody for traveling and maybe one other small, neutral bag. Same with shoes - one sturdy, comfortable pair for travel and sightseeing, one pair of neutral flats, and depending on our agenda/itinerary, one pair of simple low-heeled pumps. I travel as lightly and as minimally as possible. I’m not a minimalist by any means, but I’ve learned over time to lay out in advance everything I want to take, and then reduce it by half - works like a charm every single time.

[@aprilsmith6587]

Not a fan of those shinny pants. They look nothing like the ones on the model. That black and white dress is awesome.

[@TaniaEstes]

I would recommend not wearing anything that's going to draw attention to yourself in Cape Town. Last year the first six months there were over 400 kidnappings, the majority of which happened in Cape Town. Go to US Department and state and read about it, there has been a travel advisory issued in February for Cape Town.

[@MDL523]

Good advice re not drawing attention. Cape Townians dress very casually and you really do not want to be standing out there. I am South African btw. Re the kidnappings - that is mostly linked to domestic violence.

[@TaniaEstes]

The black slingbacks with the black and white dress is perfect 👍🏻

[@tina8133]

End times as predicted in the Bible, glad you and Lyle are safe. Always looking forward to another video full of beautiful things and NYC places.

[@natalieshuburte9484]

What's your new last name going to be? Are you going to take his name, hyphenate Morello-(his name) or just keep Morello?

[@TaniaEstes]

Wedding day slip dress and robe are perfect❤ and the slippers look nice and comfy and will work fine👍🏻

[@mchyde9645]

I wish I was as organized as you! You do give great ideas. An older lady can still learn new ways!

[@noradedios7639]

Lyle always thinks of you 😊 so nice he bought you a pink NY cap. The black and white dress is so beautiful on you! As comment earlier so grace kelly vibes 😊

[@izzie.methodology]

Hey Taylor "chemise de nuit", literally "Night shirt" is the English Night Gown 😊

[@darlenefoster3379]

I'm enjoying seeing you plan your big day. Enjoy and take it all in. You are an excellent planner. Love all of your new items. It's all coming together

[@Suzanne-xx3nj]

Oops ... A little too late to advise on wardrobe ... From Cape Town. But perfect options 🤍

[@heatherhannah-gd9ln]

Hi, i am based in UK but spend several weeks in cape town, on safari and in the Winelands. Re what to wear, dont wear your beautiful ring or any flashy jewellery. Its very low key clothes wise, so go casual, no heels, very laid back. Nothing dressy needed even in high end places. Its going to be very windy so knits needed. Enjoy….

[@hollym-hopefilledhistory]

Beautiful vlog Taylor as always! The black and white outfit is so elegant! It is exactly like Grace Kelly in "To Catch a Thief." When she meets Cary Grant in the hotel lobby for the beach. So excited for you and Lyle for your wedding!!! Praying for your wedding to be more wonderful than you ever expected and for your union to be filled with the endless Grace, joy, love, and peace of the Lord. Take care!!!🥰💖

[@nancybarta8167]

Hope you went and watched the eclipse!!!Itwas 50% in california not like 2017!Happy BDay justin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOL You sure are going to be changing your clothes a lot on your honeymoon!Keep an eye on those charging elephants!!!Love the quilted jacket!

[@leeeeuwtje]

I’m not in South Africa anymore but I am South African 😜 Around May-June it’s the end of summer and going into winter, however our winters are pretty mild. With that being said, as you rightly said early morning it’s bound to be chilly so you definitely would want a jacket. The one you have should be fine, but I would have recommended maybe something waterproof just incase 😉

[@TaylorMorello]

Thank you so much for the tips! This is helpful 😊

[@heavenj7]

Anthropologie has some great lingerie and robes! Glad you checked them out for that…so pretty I’m getting way too excited ha😅I’m a Dork!!

[@heavenj7]

Taylor….i have very very fine hair like yours..I’m considering trying some of the growing oils? Have you tried any? I’m also about to see my dermatologist? Have you tried any of that? I know it’s a sensitive topic 😢 same for me! But there’s a lot out there now?

[@lindacodiga3696]

Love the clothes what lipstick are you wearing on Sunday to game

[@TaylorMorello]

Thank you! It’s from the French brand Rouje 💗

[@heathernorton1631]

Hi! I love the black and white dress on you! I want to get it but I'm a tall girl for reference just wondering how tall you are? So I can judge where the dress would land on me!!!!!

[@anaklazaro]

idk why ppl say some weird backhanded things to you all the time in your comments anyway yes the yellow pants give off pajamas BUT they are really elegant and the way you will use it will give off stylish vibes for sure so you will look very good im wxcited for your wedding ❤

[@justinfelt748]

@@TaylorMorello Thank you!😊😀😙💙💙💙💙💙💙🌷💖💖💖💖💖💖😎☀🌗🗽💖💖🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇🎇👍. It was fun to see it on television and outside together. And that was my best birthday gift ever!😍😍😍😍😍😍👍

[@Savage2548]

In California we get the earthquakes and the wildfires!

[@WithLoveSevil]

I think the silk pants are a no, they do look like pj pants even with the styling.

[@tjsleiman]

The black and white dress is so befitting and lady-like🎉... Add a broach pin to take it up a notch👌 The black shoes add a touch of sophistication, so excellent choice.

[@evamosbauer2865]

Good Morning Taylor from Melbourne, when I was a teenager went to Cape Town ,one thing that stood out to little me a lot of People were wearing white which when you think about it white does not attract the heat as darker colors do, I would pack white cotton dresses the clock is ticking soon the event will happen Hugs xoxo

[@jordanbrascia3483]

You look beautiful without makeup you don't need it at all❤

[@jeanninehardy8642]

Lovely silk pants, will look great with a pale cardigan. Love all the clothes! May i suggest a beige rain jacket? It would look so SAFARI CUTE. I dont know how long you're going to be on safari but these types of jackets can be useful. I pictured a beige gathered waist in a beige to match your Vejas. They pack ok and you can wear a couple of layers underneath for varying temps. Like something we wear in the Pacific Northwest Coast. Long enough so if you're sitting on a safari truck and it rains your butt stays dry. Lol Not sure if ican attach a pic but something like a Patagonia or REI or the cutest one and cheapest from Columbia sports wear. Amazon prob sells waterproof types too. I know its not your usual city style but can be cuteish. Yes i live in the PCN area so we do have to adjust (somewhat) our ideas of cute to the rain...occasionally. Lol Or if not take one of those clear ponchos they sell at dollar or souvenir shops that you can pop on in case of torrential rainfall. Just a suggestion. 😁🦁☂

[@jeanniekartis5916]

I cant believe you bought a dress with a black top haha..I love it and it looks stunning, I like the shoes and I think a black strappy sandal would work well too. I personally wouldn't wear white shoes 😉

[@dianebaker5243]

Loved the white and black.like how you categories your clothes for your Honeymoon.The pink hat suits you.👍🥰

[@TaylorMorello]

Thank you!!

[@noushinkhalehoghli6833]

Love from UK 🇬🇧 ❤😊

[@TaylorMorello]

Love the UK right back! 🫶🏻💗

[@julianemorey1372]

I love the black and white dress 😊

[@charinearaujo]

Loving all your content ❤️❤️❤️

[@valenhart9180]

❤

[@camlachnille]

Oh that black and white dress is SO GOOD!

[@delmorrow7148]

The “chemise de nuit” you bought isn’t a dress. It’s a nightgown. “Chemise de nuit” is French for nightgown or nightshirt. So you might want to rethink that.

[@TaylorMorello]

Hi! Thank you for the spelling! I know it’s a nightgown hence wearing it with the robe. Not meant to wear out as a dress, sorry if I didn’t specify that clearly!

[@mansoor3159]

Can't wait to watch this vlog Taylor and I am so so so glad to see you back again😀💖

[@jamespittman]

Great video.❤🤩

[@heavenj7]

I like the quilted jacked but not a love? Maybe something in a taupe or check ( Josie’s checkered jacket from Beaufort&Blake) would rock it!! ❤️

[@jeanneewaseck6635]

Everytime you mention the restaurant "Jack's Wife Freida", I always think of that apartment you looked at, where you could spy that right across the street!

[@susiehughes6438]

Everything is very beautiful. You will look stunning no matter what you wear. My gosh Taylor...what will you do after the wedding/honeymoon is over? Just think, no more planning, shopping, buying, arranging, ordering, appointments, scheduling. You won't know what to do with yourself. It's been such an all-consuming passion for you for quite some time now. I hope it's more than you could ever dream of. ❤

[@DanielleJ27]

Hi Taylor, so sweet of Lyle to gift you a pink cap. Really like how organise you are for the honeymoon outfits which, by the way, look amazing and so stylish. Have a lovely week and thanks again for your great vlogs 💕

[@TaylorMorello]

Thank you Danielle! You too!! 💗

[@DanielleJ27]

@@TaylorMorello thank you 🙏

[@Lulu-oi9ue]

2:33 that dress is soo me 😍 gorgeous

[@heavenj7]

Taylor time is flying since you got engaged!! 💕 so excited for you both! Love your choices!!

[@littlehomesteadinthecity4404]

You’re not weird, you simply have not lost the joy and confidence of your inner child. You still find total delight in dressing up, it’s truly wonderful. You balance maturity and inner child perfectly.

[@heavenj7]

I love love love the silk pants!! Ohh I’d wear them with a cute sleeveless beige or taupe cashmere rollneck! Good choice

[@lavanyashenoy8597]

Could anyone help me with the name of the background music that starts at 3:23? I love it!

[@catherinegrant8709]

A swimming costume , a warm jacket , gloves and scarf , a warm hat , so excited u are coming to ct . You have to dip in the cold ocean , Boulders Beach 😀 maybe , love the black and white dress and the cream jacket is great 😊

[@annahoule6938]

I also love physical calendar/ planners/ notes! I am the o my one in our company😂 it makes me feel security blanket vibes

[@bkarnie]

I love the silk pants! I’d be terrified of getting them dirty in the airport but they will be so comphy!

[@megaroo1983]

Make sure you can get the dress off easily overtop hair and makeup after its done! or just wear the robe when you're getting ready

[@heavenj7]

Girrrrll the robe and chemise are lovely! 😢I’m soo happy for you aww ha 💕

[@TaniaEstes]

I think the silk pants canwork, but maybe better with the Sezane Gaspard cardigan that you have

[@romanaluciano4015]

That black and white dress is so beautiful, Iove it❤❤

[@rachelhoward8103]

I love that Black and white dress! ( I would choose black shoes) Looks so nice on you ! You got a different robe from the lace one But I love the silk one - I would probably feel more comfortable in the silk - all your choices are so nice Taylor!! You will love the safari ! You’re going to have such a beautiful day and such beautiful memories to add to your happily ever after! Take in each day- I did that and don’t regret it!! It’s your day !! I look back on the days with such fondness - all these years later- Jim and I love each other more with each passing year!❤ thanks for taking us along ! I love it !!

[@mchyde9645]

That black and white is great, would also look great white top, black bottom. I can see that outfit in all kinds of colors.

[@heavenj7]

Ballet flats would also look really nice with the silk pants!

[@MissLilly-vn2wt]

I love the excitement from you planning your outfits! Like always, you will look lovely💜🐿💜 the canva idea is actually really good because it can also help pre-planned outfits for future trips that have worked and you can create a file for them to look over ideas💜 and paper planning or paper copies will always feel so comforting for many of us💜 I love my paper planning, scrapbooks and organizing so much💜 as always take care and best regards 🥀Miss. Lilly 🥀

[@TaylorMorello]

Same!! Live crafty things and wonderful ideas 😍 hope you have a great week!

[@janeybakarbessy2330]

Just want to mention as a flight attendant also pay attention to mosquitoes and let's not forget dengue. So covering as much as possible would be my advice! And don't forget about visas and first aid kits cause I do see a lot of cute clothes but still don't forget to put that up on your lists.

[@TaylorMorello]

Great tips thank you!

[@WithLoveSevil]

The black and white dress is giving Charlotte York, very lux and pretty

[@TaylorMorello]

Eeek yes!! Works for so many scenarios 😍

[@theunknownartist1187]

Hi how tall re you? I really like the silk pants but I’m 5ft 8. I’m worried they will be too short

[@TaylorMorello]

I’m 5’7” so you should be fine!

[@catherinegrant8709]

Cape Town how fab 😀

[@marielahernandez129]

Hi Taylor, I'm loving all of your honeymoon outfits so far! For the satin pants, maybe a tank underneath the cardigan for a more balanced look? Also, my wedding is this weekend and I must say watching your videos has given me inspiration and strength, as I too am the wedding planner lol. Sending you so much love! Can't wait for the next vlog 🥰

[@AliMalik-er1mh]

You look cute ❤❤

[@hsoderberg6505]

Love your style, but for me i think i would pass on silk cream pants for traveling...to get anything out of silk is a bear and the wrinkles from sitting...well you know, this is a hard pass for me.
