    Ouf! Good tips but you and I have different ideas about packing light! 😂
    Your "light" list for a week, especially in a hot climate, is my "yikes, I overpacked again!" 😮😅

    • @centibastelt2023

    I live in Sicily. Tourists are easily identified by silly little backpacks; transparent/lacey tops/trousers/dresses; showing their belly. Do wear bermudas or long trousers, preferably in linen. Crisp shirts with sleeves rolled up always look stylish and fresh; but T-shirts are easier to pack. The backpacks are puzzling: why not a hand/shoulder/crossbody bag? And you can always pick up a nice woven straw bag at a market

    • @milamolinari5229
      @milamolinari5229 3 місяці тому +6

      Because a backpack is way better for your back! Bags over your shoulder or crossbody put strain on your neck/back/shoulder

    • @elizabethpetrie2732
      @elizabethpetrie2732 3 місяці тому +5

      I agree; backpacks are awkward to reach in and out of-except for pickpockets. I carry a cross-body bag in a cut- or rip-proof fabric. And although I wear comfortable but stylish outfits, I always wear a money belt/mini bag around my waist. It contains my passport, travel insurance documents, a copy of my prescription, money, hotel key, etc. It has a cable running through the strap and a fake buckle, and is also in cut-resistant material. This also reduces the weight of the cross-body bag. Chic be damned! I will never see any of these people again, so who cares if I wear the same outfit several times? I rinse things out the evening before, and I’m good to go the next morning.

      Hello, American just returned from 2 weeks in Portugal and Amsterdam. Carried very small cross body with essentials, and a very light weight day pack. Why both? When traveling, you need more items and room for shopping. Phone chargers, rain gear, water, outerwear,snacks etc. we are seasoned travelers and need to be prepared for different scenarios. I am a tourist, who cares if I look like one.

    Another reason to avoid polyester is that it can take 200 years to decompose in landfill, it releases microplastics and contributes significantly to carbon emissions when it’s being manufactured.

    My packing for a week in Europe- 2 shorts, 2 skirts, 2 smart dresses, 2 linen trousers, one pair of which I will travel in, and 7 tops that will mix well with the bottoms. Plus travel in a jacket and trainers and pack 2 pairs of sandals, smart & casual. 2 swimsuits, a hat and underwear.

    lol we have very different ideas about packing light. 4 tops, 2 shorts, 2 light bottoms, light jacket and maybe a nicer outfit for evening. Bathing suits take up no room so don't count ;-D

    • @Myover50fashionlife

      We were out eating every evening. One dress would not have done. I guess if we’d Airbnb it would have been different.

    I like these tips. I just returned from a 3-week European vacation which included 11 nights on a cruise ship. I definitely over packed! What an added burden when you have to lug so much around from place to place! I would do things differently the next time. I had too much of everything!

      Yes, I had lots of spare room in a medium sized suitcase and wore everything, many twice. As we were out every night it was 12 outfits needed. Yes I did wear things twice too. We didn’t have a washing machine and it was hit and sweaty weather.

    Some useful tips in your Video. I live in spain, we can always pick out the holiday makers, shorts in winter, flip flops, backpacks as well. The Eborian BB cream in nude is worth trying, it hides blemishes and has a sp factor.

    My husband recently had his 50th class reunion. We were out on the veranda of the country club that sits on the river. It was warm that day but I knew it was supposed to get cooler that night, especially the breeze of the river. I was the only one that wore a jacket over my dress. I wore a denim jacket and put a scarf around the neck. I got several compliments on my outfit. I felt a little smug that I wore a jacket and was comfy and everyone else was cold. 😉

    in many cases, when you have a natural material they still make the lining polyesther. which just ruins it all.

    If you are shorter legs to body tucked in or just tummy length top works better imo

    Since I let my gray hair come in, none of my favorite colors look right on me. I love neutrals. I miss them. Most of my clothes look awful on me. Still trying but I'm ready to quit with the clothes. I have rosacea so that makes it even harder. I also haven't wore makeup , except for my children's weddings.

      It was 1 trousers that was suggested and they weren’t used. 3 shorts were used. It was 3 skirts I took but said 4 in error in the video and I wore 3. 3 dresses were worn. 14 outfits were needed to include eating out in the evening. I would suggest next time to be more specific when asking ChatGPT to include the planned activities and lifestyle. Yes I think I wore of the items so as I could share images but ChatGPT didn’t know that when it created the list.
