how would you dressed up when you're traveling ? mostly girls are the ones that aware with these things i observed that girls are more dressed up than the boys. when i went to bali a few months ago, i saw many girls wearing big sunglasses, mini shorts, baggy clothes, etc.. very interesting ^^ i also saw some boys did the same too they're 'pretty' stylish, but i saw some things funny .. LoL i saw in the airport, there's a man wearing a sweater and our destination is beach by the way ? .. LoL that's also interesting for me .. LoL i enjoy watching people very much to me, people there appear differently, as i live in a city which located on a hill so those things are very entertaining to me .. hehee another excitement accompanying the traveling itself .. ^^ as this related with the fashion, i think it's great to travel in style i always wear shorts and white sneakers everytime i go traveling it's the most comfortable one for me how would you people think ? thanks for responding .. ^^

Hello unuzzz, I keep it as simple as I could. I don't really travel in style, dear. I have a small baby and whenever I travel to somewhere, I will wear something that is comfortable for myself. Unless I need to attend a function, I won't really dress up.

Generally when I travel I'm backpacking, so I dress for convenience more than anything. I take few clothes, even fewer accessories, and wear things that will crease or get dirty least easily, will be comfty, and can be cool or warm when i need them to be. usually i look pretty scruffy whenever i travel due to my lack of make up, showers, and hair products/straighteners - even though Im a 20 year old girl and otherwise enjoy looking good and dressing up. I know what you mean about watching other people. What I found really funny was the different stages of backpackers you find when travelling. there's the boho-dreadlocked type, the scruffy as hell type (like moi lol) and the not really backpackers at all but we have a backpack type. I best observed this in a hostel in Valencia, Spain. I'd just got out of the shower (the first one in a fair few days) in which I'd washed my clothes too, and found a whole bunch of girls crowding the mirror to add make up and straighten their hair! Even funnier - as they were leaving with their rucksacks I saw they had high heals on! I just don't understand.

If I go to a tropical beach destination I like to take sunglasses, swimming costume, snorkeling equipment, t shirts and shorts. Sometimes I wear a sarrong, a piece of material that can be folded in many different ways. I put on a sunhat if I feel that the sun is very strong. If I go to a city destination I wear blouses or t shirts and skirts or trousers. I like cotton as it is cool but it can look creased. I prefer comfortable clothes with classic style rather than high fashion outfits. If I am visiting a Muslim country I cover my arms and legs in repect for their culture. I found Jordan needed a total cover up compared to Israel where it is normal to wear a bikini. I like to look ordinary when I travel and do this with a amount of style. Happy traveling.

hmm when traveling i go for comfort. i love to walk so i'll do a lot of walking while traveling. on the plane, i'll be in comfortable clothing. most of the time i'd be wearing a jumper or track pants. it's so uncomfortable to be in jeans for so many hours. as for what i pack, it'll depend on the weather at my destination. cheers.

I never think about style, I just wear what is most comfortable and if it's to somewhere hotter then I'll wear layers of clothes so that when I arrive I can take a layer off so I'm not too hot. I don't understand people who get really dressed up to travel as it doesn't matter which way you travel, it makes more sense to be comfortable and not care what you look like.
