Travel in Style: What Not to Wear When Traveling

It is totally possible to look good while strutting the globe.To help you avoid any fashion faux pas I've put together a list you should always skip when packing for your next trip.

wearing a belt bag when traveling
- I say, one of the most unflattering accessories you can wear. I know, I know most of you would
say- It's practical and functional. Unless your vacation falls during Halloween and you're planning to attend a party as a 1980s jogger, lose it puhhhlease!




Sandals with socks
- Never and I mean never pair sandals with socks. Avoid the geeky-looking duo altogether.It is just wrong in so many levels.




Stiletto heels
- Like, seriously?! Stilettos are incredibly uncomfortable. It's best to leave these shoes at home, especially if you're traveling to a place riddled with cobblestone streets. I'm sure you don't wanna be caught staggering in Calle Crisologo. Such a shame!




Crocs
- I, personally, never like crocs. They're too clunky to be flattering, especially the brightly colored ones. And for some reason they remind me of "tindera ng isda sa palengke". I see them
wearing something like that.




All-white sneakers
- Bright white sneakers will show every speck of dirt. As in every single dirt you might have accumulated from visiting different places. Cleaning it up should be the least of your worries when traveling.





Super short shorts
- Ladies (probably some men) please read: Super short shorts is only appropriate when worn on a beach over a bathing suit.Not when you're in a flea market, riding a plane, taking a public transpo, visiting museums and especially not when you're visiting a church.




Studded accessories
- This is so asking for attention.... from a metal detector. Most airports and some establishments
will give you a hard time if you set off the alarm on the metal detector. A major inconvenience while traveling. To avoid such inconvenience shove it back to your closet.




Convertible pants
- I wouldn't be caught wearing this not in any lifetime. Unless I head to a safari camp in eastern
Africa where it'll be just be me and a guide scouting for animals, leave them at home!




Skimpy swimwear
-Just because you have the body for it, doesn't give you the license to wear a thong bikini for
beach vacations. Leave some things to the imagination, for crying out loud.
