We Americans don’t really have special vacation wardrobes like the British do, probably because we have plenty of hot weather here in most states, so we wear these pieces for everyday. I know Northern Europeans love to take summer trips to hot climates like the Mediterranean to soak up the heat and sun they don’t get at home. But, with our long, hot summers, at least five months here in California, summer hot-destination travel is not as big a thing. When I go to Greece and Italy, I’ll go in the spring. Plus, I only wear linen in summer, I suffer in the heat, but I don’t want to be constantly ironing it while traveling. In spring I can wear cotton and silk, it’s much easier care. Especially silk jersey, my favorite fabric of all for its supreme comfort and easy packing and care - it never needs ironing, is lightweight and non-bulky to pack and dries fast, perfect for travel.
I wear my sunglasses nearly everyday outdoors, all the reflective surfaces in the city make it uncomfortable not too. The only place I could go without them was the wilderness property we used to have. It was very green forest and meadow, with no roads, cars, buildings, etc. But, I think sunglasses are essential in modern urban environments. I always wear Polaroids, they’re really the only lenses that truly protect the vision. I knew three people, including my brother, who didn’t wear them and got cataracts quite young. They all lost the vision in the eye that they had surgically “corrected”, that’s enough to convince me. My brother sat at least four hours a day in bright sun, when available on a concrete surface, no wonder. Unlike me, he was determined to get tanned. Plus, sunglasses always look cool, it’s no style detriment to wear them!
@@kimberlyperrotis8962 I completely agree they are useful and cool... What more do you want?! My sight is bad enough as it is I don't want to worsen it even more
Thank you so much for this list, ❤
@@mushimiyimanaelizabeth2594 I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for taking the time to comment🙏
I love your lists and agree..most people forget that cover-ups are essential for summer especially during Holidays.
thank you! :) also so true, it took me so long before incorporating cover ups in my wardrobe and now they are a staple
