How to pack light and fashionable for Europe female? ›

Contrast Neutral Clothing with Colorful Accessories

These items are easy to pack and won't take up much space. France says to always use the space inside shoes to stuff belts, socks, neckties, and other small items. This will help your shoes keep their shape, while maximizing all available space.

DO: Pack the following: a great pair of jeans, a perfectly cut white t-shirt, a button down shirt (so versatile), a great pair of walking shoes, a swimsuit you feel great in, a hat, a couple pieces of jewellery that go with everything, a light jumper for unexpectedly cool nights, and sunscreen.

Euro chic fashion is a style that embraces simplicity, elegance, and quality craftsmanship. With its clean lines, tailored silhouettes, and neutral color palette, euro chic fashion offers a refined and timeless aesthetic.

The look: Non-fussy, slightly masculine and ultra-sexy, the European rich girl works statement vintage pieces like a Chanel jacket or YSL mini in with slouchy tailoring, menswear items and perfectly tousled (but never messy) hair.

Invest in quality, classic pieces

In addition to having durability, natural fibers, like cotton and silk, are perfect for travel, as they don't encourage perspiration and tend to resist odors over multiple wears. Bauso favors quality denim and sweaters, as well as a lot of basics by Everlane and Madewell.

The 54321 Packing Method

And I think this method is really something you can tailor to your personal style. In general, it often looks like 5 tops, 4 bottoms, 3 shoes, 2 dresses and 1 bag. You can also add in additional things like maybe 2 belts, and 1 hat.

Don't wear a backpack.

Americans wear backpacks. The rest of the world carries bags. If you insist on using a backpack (which is also an easier target for pick-pockets), sit it on your lap while on public transportation; there's no need to take up two seats for a Jansport.

Daytime & Sight-Seeing Clothing

Comfort is key during the day. Think about it… you're going to be surrounded by thousands of other tourists since you'll most likely be visiting the same tourist sights as everyone else. And you'll be walking for miles and miles. So you want comfortable shoes.

Plenty of Europeans wear a T-shirt and jeans, but compared to the USA, these clothes tend to be a much snugger fit (for all genders). If you want a simple outfit that still fits Europe's "smart casual" style, think slim or skinny jeans (often dark-colored or grey and undistressed), and a T-shirt that fits your frame.

Synthetic Fabrics Like Polyester, Nylon And Acrylics

Unless an item has been specially designed for athletic wear, synthetic fibers like polyester, nylon and acrylic are not great picks for summer.

Do people wear shorts in Europe? ›

European style shorts are becoming far more common for locals in northern Europe, although still not common in France and Italy in particular. But still, on the whole, Europeans tend to dress more formally than we do. Shorts are something you mostly see in a beach resort.

Just like in America, Europeans wear all styles of clothes and the subtilities vary from country to country. That said, styles do tend to be a little more “dressy” or “put together” but plenty of Europeans wear a casual t-shirt, sneakers, and jeans wardrobe.

While many diverse facial features exist, a common pair of traits are available among people just who are all considered to be European. These features include a good jawline, high face, and light sight.

Wearing leggings as pants in Europe is generally acceptable, although it may vary depending on the specific country and cultural norms. In more conservative countries, such as certain parts of Italy or Spain, it is still more common to see leggings worn with longer tops or dresses to provide more coverage.
