Are you wondering about what you should be
wearing this summer in Italy? What the weather will be like? Can I put on
shorts? Need not to worry; we will be sharing some tips here about what to pack
when you’re off to Italy and will also put down some styling tips to feel more
stylish and comfortable while travelling to this place. Italy has cities,
mountains and beaches, each with a little different gear for type of holiday
and weather patterns. Moreover some locations in Italy require you to wear
specific outfits, which you must take care of to avoid disappointment or embarrassment.
What to wear?
Italy is blessed with lovely Mediterranean
weather and you can expect summers to be mighty hot, sunny and dry. Though
there are great variations in the climate at different locations and it is
worth being prepared accordingly.
If you’ll happen to visit the mountains you
will experience the low temperatures in the cities or the South. If you are
planning to visit this area, then you must prepare yourself for occasional rain
showers and must pack for some layers along. Also if you are planning for
hiking be ready with proper boots & suitable technical gear.
If you are planning to visit the Italian
Islands then you must be ready to face the high temperatures & moderate
winds. Take hats, maxi dresses, Italian jumpers and sun screen with you to protect yourself from
the heat and feel most comfortable.
If you are counting on city sightseeing
make sure you pack items to cover your shoulders and legs for visits to church.
Most of the smaller churches do not require you to cover up though some of the
bigger churches may take exception to tank tops and shorts ask you to leave.
5 essentials to pack while travelling to Italy in summer
1. Good walking sandals/shoes
Sandals or shoes with good rubber
soles are must haves as you will be doing a lot of walking in Italy. These will
protect your feet & ankle from otherwise possibly unpleasant hard stepping.
2. Sunglasses
Sunglasses are more than a
fashion statement in Italy. You will need a pair of quality shades to protect
your eyes as in summers sun is quite strong in Italy, no matter where you are,
may it be the mountains, a city or the sea.
3. Comfy bag
In order to accommodate all your
essentials while short excursions during your trip, carry a comfy bag, probably
a cross body bag as besides being easy to carry, they are safe against pick
pockets and you have several options to choose from.
4. A shawl
As some churches require you to
follow their dress code to let you in, just like in Vatican, carry a shawl in
your bag to avoid showing off while dressed for the heat in Italian dresses.
