I think you should push your lawmakers to make your country safer instead of talking how to dress so we are not robbed. Tourist should be able to dress how they please and not "camouflage " .Tourism brings big money to Europe .
True
Wow and they say the US isn’t safe but we don’t have to sew our money in our clothes like it’s 1600z
I was robbed in my own country. never in vacation. Wear what ever you want ( mybe not high for the cubble stones)just be aware of your surraoundings. And put your valuable tings in your deepest zip pocket.
Anyway we can tell by accent if you from europe or not or tourist or not. And Europe is safe just pick pocket is an issue sometimes.
i think both can simultaneously be true. it might not be tourists fault but it’s still smart to know the danger and try to evade it
2024 the cost of living is insane. People are desperate. New York and London are just as dangerous like all major cities in economic downturns. This is just smart advice. I’m a Brit and wouldn’t go to London rn for anything!
I went to Paris for the first time last year, and loved it. The people were so kind and friendly to me. I was on my own and felt very safe. I am going back in a couple months. Every time I go to Europe, I really do my best to blend in and be respectful.
I am American and I never wear a backpack or bag on my back, I am waaaaaaaay too paranoid to do this. I always wear a shoulder bag and I have the bag where I can see it at all times generally with my hand over it lol.
I watch a lot of videos on this topic because I travel alone so much, and this one is really great! I’m so glad you mentioned the fact that people are more likely to be targeted if they have logos. The wealthiest people I know do not wear obvious logos and definitely wear things with understated elegance, and that’s in Europe and the US and Canada. They do not want people to know they have money, and they’re never targeted. Brilliant advice, Alice! Thank you.
Fantastic advice. Last time I was in Paris a young French woman approached me to ask for directions in the Latin Qtr. I was flattered she thought I was French! I was in jeans, simple top and trench coat. Excellent video Alice, thanks very much.
I don’t like a lot of TH-camrs, but I’ve watched almost everyone of her videos!! I have notes on them for when I go shopping in Paris at the end of the month. 😂😂😂 She delivers so much information without being snotty, she’s just like this is it!! I love she doesn’t love designer brands!! Her great bags video that are French made and but not designer! I love it!! So helpful!!
When we arrived back to the US from Paris and was deplaning, a fellow traveler wished me a good time while here visiting. It took everything in me to not respond merci. 😆 I love Parisian style!
I wish more people had the mindset to try to blend in when they visit a new place. Personally I think of it as part of the experience.
You’re the most straight shooting hilarious lady on you tube. Love it! Xx
Definitely agree with this! I went to Paris in the fall, I wanted to bring only a small amount of clothes, so I did black leather ankle boots, black tweed pants, a black leather crossbody (APC), a tan trench coat, and navy, maroon, beige, and red tshirts. It was really easy and I felt like I blended in MUCH more than the first time I visited Paris. Speaking even basic French will help sooo much as well!
Yes, I’ve found that it’s easier if you learn just a few important phrases. Hello, please, thank you, goodbye, sorry, excuse me. I think people really appreciate when you at least try.
I completely agree with you, especially about the topic with Château de Versailles…🌹
Absolument! Right after I watched this I went to the pharmacy. THREE people were wearing Crocs and two girls were wearing pajama bottoms with giant logo college sweatshirts. It was hell trying not to laugh!
can't count how many Chanel Bags I have seen in your example pictures/clips.. and you too are wearing Chanel bag and Chanel shoes on your clips 'what to wear' to blend in... so what is true?
Save yourself money and go for niche or lesser known brands. Alice is a fashionista so I presume her world revolves around all fashion; I imagine she might accessorize with high end items when attending really nice social gatherings rather than just walking from point A to Point B in Paris…. For us folks looking to make the most of what we have, keep it simple. Unless you want to splurge! Then go for it!
You can wear those bags if you want but just be aware of your surroundings
Great tips. Thanks for all the advice. 👍🏼
I do love that you roast Bethaney Frankel LOL
This is great information. Very sensible and helpful! ❤️
You are right. I HATE that you are right, but you re right in everything you have said. Much as Love the way I looks in athletic wear, and crazy shoes, they are not respectful for visiting certain places, and there are plenty of super comfortable outfits which ate respectful.
LOVE YOUR NEW DINING ROOM CHAIRS!!!!
ENJOY!!!!
Love your videos thank you!
Best advice and I completely agree with you, Alice. There's nothing better than classic timeless understated elegance and the least we want is to get bad attention. Merci beaucoup pour votre conseil formidable, vous êtes très chic comme toujours ❤
I so glad I found your Chanel . This was very informative Thank you 👍🏼👏👏🤩🤩🤩
Just wear whatever you want. Just be aware of your surroundings.
Dress appropriately that suits your style.
Just be you. Why do you have to pretend to be someone else?🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♀️
I like a leather small to medium shoulder bag, I don’t really like wearing cross-bodies because they cross my neck, irritating the skin. It’s getting harder and harder to find good shoulder bags, they’re nearly all cross-body these days. I think a handheld bag could be very easily pulled away by a stronger person, plus I like being hands-free.
Well, as she pointed out, it depends on whether you want to get robbed or not. Hey, it's your choice. If you wear a hand-held bag, the thing is to carry it in front of you, not at the side. Thieves tend to run up from behind; it's hard for them to grab something that they can't see. For myself, when I'm walking around, I don't carry anything more than I absolutely need, so a wrist bag or a small clutch is enough. Carry it in front of you. I don't attract thieves; maybe they think a small bag isn't worth stealing.
Napoleon is so cute! Great advice Alice!
The new look suite you so well you look gorgeous I’m watching your old videos about vintage fragrances and I enjoy to see them ❤
Getting ready for my wardrobe this October ❤❤❤
I know that wearing a back pack makes you stand out, I’ve tried several different crossbody bags but by the end of the day my shoulder is killing me. Even if I switch off on shoulders throughout the day. I’d love to find a bag that can both be a crossbody and backpack to ease the shoulder pain.
VERY FUNNY AND ACCURATE ALICE!!!!
LOVE TO YOU, AND PETS TO NAPO!!!! ❤!!!!
Great tips as always! I wonder what kind of sunglasses you recommend wearing in Europe.
And if u travel to America do u wear their chlotes to blend in? Or not to looks too French?
I also have the same question 😂
I live in the US, in New England, and I don’t dress like the average American. My style is classic, understated elegance. I was brought up to dress this way as a sign of respect for oneself and others. I had no idea at the time that my mother was teaching me was to dress à la Parisienne. Not all Americans dress in athletic wear as daily clothing. I grew up in Boston, in an urban environment, and that greatly affected our choice of clothing. I moved to a bordering state, and the people here dress much more casually, as a rule. People always say that I look so nice. and I wonder why they don’t put forth the effort into making themselves look their best.
Really all of Alice's advice is good for the US too. Looking elegant is always appropriate, no matter where you are. I'm an American and I think most Americans would see Alice here and admire her look and style. I keep hoping the gym clothes/baseball cap look will fade here.
@@1marianne I dont undestand why the classic style must to be pushed down the other. They are equal. Self expressing. The world would be very boring if we uniformizated only with classic fashion. Everyone would wear trench coat blouses and blazer masculine styles. The humán fantasy is much larger that that.
@@kamillaerdos7636 Everyone does not need to dress the same, but wearing workout or pajama like clothes looks very strange to many people of all cultures and can show a lack of respect. It's also not safe as a tourist.
I like wearing what I feel good in, and that’s all of the things you say not to wear. Guess I’ll look like a tourist, but I look gooood 😂
You will be definetly be robbed, as you look fine af
Helpful video! Could you share some ideas on outfits to wear in French Riviera region? Heading there this summer. Merci!
Would love any tips for Spain/Portugal! Thanks for the information!
I would like to see videos about where to shop for vintage handbags, clothes, and shoes in Paris or in France. I live in the Netherlands and want to attend a cooking course in Paris and shop at the brocantes in Paris while I am there. Merci for the great videos!
As an American, I've never dressed as an American, I realize. I'm proud of this, haha. I always get asked where I'm from when I'm out in public here in Miami because everyone here dresses in flip flops, crocs, and SUPER casual attire that I cannot stand. Including leggings and gym clothes 365 days a year. UGH.... I belong in Europe.
I don’t wear these things at home in the US, either! I especially hate the black or gray tight, polyester gym outfits that everyone wears everywhere, it’s almost a national uniform. Most people never go to gyms or even go on walks, anyway. There’s nothing comfortable at all about all that super-tight and sweaty poly and spandex. If I had to wear those, I would never get dressed at all! I much prefer tailored clothes in natural fibers and lighter colors, mostly. I would never wear a cliche’ beret in Paris, either, but especially in warm weather. I used to wear wool berets for my daily winter commute, because I don’t like sock hats with my corporate wool overcoats, but the Monica Lewinsky scandal ruined them for me. Even though I wore them for years before, everyone started saying things like “trying to catch a president?” No thanks! Parisian fashion has always been my inspiration since working with two beautiful Parisienne colleagues forty years ago, they always looked so great.
I keep my crossbody on and in my lap while I eat.
I don’t wear anything anyone would want to steal, including my engagement ring, etc.
Specifically in churches, it’s disrespectful to wear hats, sleeveless tops and short bottoms. There are signs at the door for all of them asking you not to.
Like it or not, you are treated better when you are dressed better. True everywhere in the world.
I never wear my good jewelry either. I switch it out for things that are cheaper in case I should lose it or get robbed. Like she says about wearing the expensive logos, it draws attention if someone is looking to rob you. Why put a target on your back?
@@alyeska1320 yup. I have a plain wedding band so I always have a ring I can wear no matter what I’m doing or where I’m going. In general I don’t take anything I’d be devastated to lose, whether by theft or lost/damaged bags.
@@aprilgrow3667 Exactly! I buy cheap sterling silver bands to wear on the fingers I wear ring so I don’t panic if I feel they’re missing! Ha!
@@alyeska1320 maybe o should do that! I do find myself rubbing my fingers where my missing rings are…
That uniqlo fanny pack is everywhere in Europe, even older ladies use it. I don’t think it screams “American tourist”.
It depends how it is wear. Arou d the waist scream tourists
Very good video.. some good advice! I wear trench coats in America but I don’t think most tourists would wear it in Europe just to fit in.
Thank you very much:)
I need some advice - I almost always wear a hat outside for 2 reasons - sunlight can be a headache trigger for me and I have very fine thin hair that is easily blown around. Currently I can only grow it to a little below my chin, so it doesn’t look that great pulled back. I have some cute hats but then when we go inside to eat or a museum I would prefer to take the hat off but then my hair looks horrible. Tips?
I love wearing Pyjamas to the museums and churches, one time the Lady who checked the Ticket asked me where I got this nice Pyjama from.
As a European I am totally agree. I love that you included men as well. When I was a concierge at a luxury hotel we were always spotted Americans: women in leggings and a random top, designer handbag,running shoes- men in polo shirts or Hawaii shirts, dark brown belt with beige pants and running shoes😂.
I love your videos and your accent, so pretty! Ignore the comments about your country, we have our own problems! Have they been to any of our big cities🙄. Love France, good luck for Olympic Games! So great!
Hi, thx for the video ❤️👍,👋😁☺️
When travelling in Europe I have always gone with a group. We may not stay too long in any one place so we have to travel really light. That means I have to carry quite a bit of stuff with me. I must have a bag that is big enough for it all and that has a sturdy enough strap that someone won’t cut through it. (Those things happen.) Also I have noticed that lots of people in Germany and Scandinavia wear very casual clothes so Paris is not all Europe.
I avoid passing a Crocs store, let alone buying anything from there 😂
I am only comfortable wearing a back pack in Japan because it is very very low crime there. Even here in America if I find myself in a city with a backpack I turn it around and carry it in the front.
Hi, I'm going June 11 to the 21st. What should I wear? I'm from southern CA. I live in the desert and it's currently already going to hit the 100 F here. How is the weather over there? (I usually get cold around 70F). I'm going to look odd either way, but I was wondering if you could give me more info. I've never traveled anywhere, so I don't know what to expect 😅.
Hello check my fashion video about summer in pAris either linen pant shirt and blazer, short (bermuda please) sandal and linen shirt and blazer or if cold a jean white tee ballerina and sweater
Can I purchase the AA mini Marley bag in Paris? Or other quiet luxury bags you could recommend?
yes they have a boutique in Paris
Bonjour, you are so stylish, have so much class. Thank you for your information. I live in casual Hawaii, plan to go to Bali. Then to Europe.I miss having stylish clothing. You are so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your advice. Crocs horrible. I will watch your videos. Thank you so much for sharing.
Good advice . I love your Panama hat I looks great on you . I also like the cream cropped jacket , can you put a link for it ? You always look so polished but not “overdone”
Hello thanks I will put the link of what I am wearing. Jacket comes from Bash I love this one
@@Aliceinparisofficialcan you please share the size of your jacket? It looks so great on you but boxy on the Bash website….
Nice…Thank you❤
Great video! What kind of bag should a man wear when in Paris and not look like a tourist? I usually carry guide books with me. Thanks.
check below the video. I link the crossbody bag travel video. Atelier Auguste mini marly is unisex. the monceau is also unisex
Any suggestions for more comfortable shoes for injured knees? I have a trip coming up, and I can’t wear the same shoes or dressy sandals that I used to wear. The nicer sneakers are too uncomfortable too, and I think I’ll be too hot in my comfortable ankle boots. I’m living in Birkenstocks and Hoka slides when I have to do miles of walking now that warm weather is here. Sigh. I miss my cute shoes and sandals! I can only wear them for a limited time now. Any ideas?
Massimo Dutti sandal look comfotable and stylish check the platform birkenstock look like
@@Aliceinparisofficial Thank you very much!
We'll be doing a lot of walking in Paris. I'm looking for a very moderately priced, versatile, comfortable shoe. One that's still a little stylish. Any suggestions?
ballerina, sneakers from sezane, samba adida, veja or new balance, small loafer
I would like to know what to wear in Spain for summer, please!
I love the Panama hat. Could you recommend where to buy one?
I bought a really nice one at Cuyana.
Besides, I am wondering... you showed the ANINE BING university sweatshirt. I am a fan of this brand, especially the blazers and other classic items. Just wondering if you only wear the sweatshirt for outdoor exercise, given your advice to stay away from them? I will admit that despite never liking this type of item, when I see it done by a brand like AB, I start to question my judgment on the matter. Thank you 😂
yes only for outdoor/sunday
I typically carry a backpack (leather one) when I go to and from work here in the Washington, DC area of the United States. It has my everyday carry items (spare glasses, phone charger, etc). What should I carry? I’m a guy. I’m Andrew.
As far as shoes and attire go … are chelsea boots ok? What about chinos and a button up shirt with a sweater when appropriate?
What type of hat is ok to wear? I shave my head. So, I need to protect it both from the cold and sun respectively.
yes it is fine for a guy
@@Aliceinparisofficial Thank you. But what specifically is ok?
My daughter is coming next week. I have encouraged her to watch. What other bag would you recommend? I wanted LV but not sure 🤔
check my bag video. I make a lot of recommendation
Hello, I enjoyed this video very much, thank you 😊. I would like to ask if it is safe to wear modest gold and diamond engagement and wedding rings, to mostly be in central areas and take public transport in these parts. The last time I was in Paris I only had trouble with dangerous people on the public transport to both airports. Next time I will take the expensive airport bus to be safe.
modest yes but be careful in public transportation and spaces
I’m planning a trip to Spain (Barcelona and Madrid) during fall. What should I wear?
check what to wear in Paris in the fall very similar weather at this time.
I've only ever been to Paris in Spring and Summer. Do locals wear colorful outerwear in Fall and Winter?
black, brown, beige, grey and white :)
Thank you for the many good advice. What to you recommend men carry if not a backpack?
messenger bag , crossbody check my travel crossbody bag video
@@Aliceinparisofficial thank you. Perfect that's what I got my husband. A slim crossbody.
Do you have links to the items other than bags, please? I am interested in shoes, the Panama hat, and the men's clothing. I would also love to see what type of sunglasses you would wear with the Panama hat. Thank you
please check my summer fashion video
@@Aliceinparisofficial je vous remercie
I travel alot , these days people everywhere wear same things because of the social media.
Especially in the big city.
I'm gonna wear crocs. 😂
Another great video! Question for you: how do you wear your Chanel flap and feel safe?
I only wear for certain occasion and not in the public transportation
sorry I'm from nyc and everyone uses backpacks and totes for School, work, to carry stuff that doesn't fit in a cross body like an umbrella. no one is wearing New balance or converse because they are cheap looking. Also no one is wearing white sneakers because they will get dirty and who is wearing that when it's raining all the time in Pari? lol that's silly. I used a backpack, tote and crossbody depending what I was doing in Paris. I wore black water proof nike sneakers to get around and slipped on nicer shoes when I entered restaurants. Sometimes you have to choose comfort over pain.
where is your beautiful panama hat from? love the swirl design.
Sombrerería Bonet in Ibiza. Real panama from Ecuador
❤ the bag at 3:27 ! What brand is it and where do I find it?
mini marly by Atelier Auguste! link below the video with promo code!
@@Aliceinparisofficial thank you! 🙂
I am luxury shopping for the first time in Paris. I planned to bring my Celine classic box bag (Philo era). Do you think it’s too loud for Paris or should I just stick with my plain, anti-theft cross body? I kind of felt like I wanted the SAs to know I could actually afford what I was shopping for. 😂
celibe box bag ok it's not well know by pickpocket
@@AliceinparisofficialThank you!
Take a picture of it before you leave home so customs don't think you bought it in France. Your photo from your phone will have a date stamp to prove you had it before your trip.
When I visited Italy, when I wasn't hanging around my parents (they screamed American tourists lol) I had a guy come up and start talking to me in Italian, he just assumed I was also Italian. I guess my style when I want to look decent in public is very European haha.
I don't understand the difference between casual and less-casual sneakers. I don't hike, so I don't know the kind of sneakers you're talking about. Could you give more comparisons? When I was in Paris, the style of sneakers worn by the locals were the very latest fashion and I had just seen them start to appear in the US.
sneakers for running, cycling or gym vs city sneakers like stan smith. New balance, converse and stan smith are very trendy in Paris;
Nice video. As a Dutch woman I see a lot of Dutch people wear practical clothes. I think it's in our nature because of our bikes and the rain! But I like your style and wear it. I've noticed you have a Chanel bag yourself. Don't you wear it in the street?
I have several designer bags. I don't wear them everyday; I go for mid range "niche" Parisian brands
I love your country! I grew up spending lots of summers with relatives in Den Bosch!
For women, is it okay to wear shorts in the summer or are sundresses better for walking around in the city in Paris?
hello yes but chic dressed short not the relzxed or sexy ones. check my video on what to wear in paris in summer
What you’re showing here are American (mostly university) hooded “sweatshirts”, I hate them. They look sloppy and the inevitable poly/cotton blend is too hot and sweaty. I have a cashmere hoodie and a silk jersey hoodie, without all the sporty pockets, etc., and those are my only “athleisure” items. Even these I find difficult to style in an elegant way, although they are much simpler and in much better fabrics than standard hoodies/sweatshirts. (It would help if they fit better, but I keep losing weight, from aging I suppose). Athleisure is such a huge trend here, but it just isn’t me, it’s super-casual and sporty. I will wear cotton leggings, shorts or joggers and tees on my exercise walks, but they’re not proper day wear, in my opinion.
Not that it makes a difference but most of those university sweatshirts she showed were Canadian lol
Is the mini Marley AA the one you are showing?
ues check below the video
Good advice!
Can you share the New balance walking sneakers you mentioned.
993 core
@@Aliceinparisofficial These are ok to wear and not touristy looking? They look very athletic to me, but they look comfortable!
You mentioned designer bags, is Sancia popular there? It's not high-end, but it's good quality. I absolutely adore their brand.
Sancia ??, never heard about this brand
This vidéo makes me laugh once more dear Alice I live on French Riviera and american tourists just arrived now with their flip flop, caps , shorts 😅when French are still wearing cashmere haha I love your vidéo ❤❤❤
@@borghc3749 I discovered this brand a few years ago. They are a European brand, Italian, but their bags are sold all over. They are highly underrated. Their bags are made with high qualty leather, the only logo on their bags is on the back so noone would know what the bag is unless they know what it is, and I have never paid more than 500 or 600 for one bag, but they have bags as low as 300 dollars. Their clothes are amazing and high-quality as well.
Bonjour Alice, this is a great video, funny and mostly accurate. However, may I please just point out that there are Americans who know how to dress elegantly (whether here in America or abroad)? Unless you speak with us, you will not know that we are American, I suppose... 😂 For those people that are wondering why this doesn't go both ways (Europeans dressing like Americans when in USA) - consider that the concept is about dressing with class and respect, period. If Europeans were notorious for dressing frumpy or in garments that are too revealing, then its probably fair to assume that the advice would be going in the other direction.
I agree wholeheartedly with this statement. No one ever guesses I’m American unless I speak to them. If I’m with my children, friends, or sisters, we don’t speak loudly enough for them to hear. My mother taught me this, and I’ve taught my children as well. Elegant but simple clothing is accepted everywhere, and it certainly doesn’t have to be expensive. This is a great video for those who don’t know this yet.
I did use my logo brand bag in Barcelona I never had any problem, I dind fell uncomfortable
One time I wore an old navy striped-shirt, jeans, and some flip flops to a beachside slushie cafe in Corsica (the waitress probably didn't see my shoes though) but she thought I was French and asked "do you want a straw?" and I said "peach flavor" IT WAS HELLA EMBARRASSING and when the Corsicans realized I spoke English and not French, they ALL GOT SCARED and gave me the side eye (they were still nice though, just afraid and didn't know what to do) and one of them gave me a head-nod to follow the waitress when I was going to get my slushie from the machine outside.
😭I should've worn a beret to look like a tourist but blending in that the locals think you're one of them is pretty sweet though despite it being an embarrassing experience (keep in mind I'm Filipino so I'm surprised the locals thought I spoke French and not English).
What do you recommend to wear in Europe (Spain, Italy, Greece) during the hot summer months? What type of shorts are best if any?
Hello stay tune I will be in Greece this summer so I will share what to wear!!
Well....Europe is big, look at Germany. You will find locals wearing lots of wrong stuffs which you mentioned here.
or Norway xD
I wouldn’t wear crocs on the street anywhere!! Flip flops only belong at the beach or home. Everything you said is true.
yes it is true see the picture I have taken in Chateau de Versailles! I was in shock!
THANKS FOR PROTECTING US ALICE!!!!
LOVE TO YOU, AND PETS TO NAPO!!!! ❤!!!!
Thank you.
Some of it is general courtesy, like you wouldn't go to a conservative and modest country wearing tank tops and hot pants. Crocs are just not done in Europe, it is something children wear at the beach, not adults at museums. You wouldn't go wearing a swimsuit now would you.
And yes, do not underestimate pickpockets. They will have their eyes on you the moment you arrive at Gare Du Nord ;))
I noticed that Americans dress quite more casual than Europeans in daily basis, but also the opposite: the dress up a lot more when they have events. I think we Europeans are less extreme as a general rule.
But I also think that the rules of a casual outfit have become more relaxed and you see more people in sporty outfits on the streets
I'm European, walking is indeed my daily exercise, because just as you I don't own a car. But my white Sezane sneakers were irrevocable ruined after a day walking in the rain... imo not the best choice for rainy countries.
black snearkers for rain or loafer!
Merci beaucoup for all the advice and suggestions. My style is low-key. I always go for the quiet, casual chic look unless the occasion calls for a more formal attire, then it's a simple elegant outfit. Some people think you have to spend a fortune to look nice, but there are so many options that are casual chic, yet elegant, and do not cost as much. Would you please do a video where you showcase 2 different outfits for going to the Louvre, Palais Garnier, Sacre-Coeur, Versailles, picnic by La Tour Eiffel and Jardin du Luxembourg, and a Seine dinner cruise? I have my own ideas, but I am always looking for new things to polish my look. Merci et passe une belle journée!
Hello I will redo what to wear in Paris and showcase different outfits for Paris in different occasion. Last time I visited Paris, I wore a crop jean by sezane, some loafer from weston and a tee with a cardigan/jacket. I would recommend sneaker over loafer
How about socks in sandals? Not those decorated sock in nice leather heels, but basic cotton sock (sometimes in weird colors too) in cheap sythetic sandals 😂
horrible 😂 pas possible
@@Aliceinparisofficial Yeah, I though so 😂
Crocs ‘n’ Socks - that’s a whole new level of wrong 😂
Since you might have a connection with Atelier Auguste, could you please please suggest them to produce a model similar to the speedy 30 bandouliere?? In thick leather of course like the bag you have in this video
Great advice!

How to look European: Never smile. Wear black head to toe, including large knockoff sunglasses.
Wear whatever you are comfortable in, paying attention to sacred places/museums/galleries. Those places require "decent" look.
What tourists should pay more attention to, more than their clothes, is their behavior. Don't be laud, rude, don't throw trash anywhere else but into a trash bin.
My husband and I have visited 40 countries (many of them visited more than once) and never blended, however, we never grabbed attention . Of course we wore sneakers, of course there was a medium size of a backpack included, since we were walking from 20-30 km per day. We were standing in long lines (very often 2-3h) to enter museums and then walking there from 2-4h. My feet would not bear any kind of shoes apart from sneakers.
When we visited notorious places full of pickpocketing, we dressed like poor people. Yes, you are not representable in photos, but safety was our top priority. We travel for ourselves, not to show it to the rest of the world. What we noticed is that the beggars were skipping us- we were not a target.
You say no logos yet you proudly wear your Chanel bag with an obvious CC, I think you are trying to say subtle logo and only 1 at a time am I correct?
Yes
tbh a backpac is ok, we just wear normal ones instead of highking ones. wear it in front whene on the subway and don't put your phone and wallet in it in case something happen.
a handbag is better, or a tot bag.
Complètement d’accord avec toi, c’est tellement irrespectueux de visiter des musées ou n’importe quel lieux en crocs. Par rapport au sacs de luxe, tu te sent en sécurité avec ton Chanel? Personnellement je le met à l’inverse quand je prend les transports 😢
Hello jevite de le porter tous les jours car ça craint. je prefere porter des sacs mid range moins chers
As a European I suggest you just travel naked and don’t bother with all these rules🤣
