Fashion in Spain?

Question

I'm going to Madrid in July for a CTY course. I am 13 (I look like 16 or older though). What kind of clothes should I bring so I don't stick out like a tourist too much?

P.S.-Any additional advice is welcome

Answer 1

Browse around in here...largest department store in the country.  http://www.elcorteingles.es/tiendas/port...

Spanish girls are more likely to lean towards skirts than Americans...other than that, you may want to go a bit more conservative than at home, but you should get an idea from that catalog.

Answer 2

Its not what you wear, but HOW you wear it -

If you are a milky white tourits it doesnt matter what is on you: you will stick out

But please dont wear fake tan: nobody likes umpalumpas...

Oh, by the way, check websites of shops like Bershka, Blanco, Pull and Bear or Zara rather than El Corte Ingles...

Those are better for your age group!

Enjoy your course, and be proud of who you are!

And buy lots of clothes while in Madrid!!!!!! XD

Madrid in July is hot! But Spanish girls in Madrid still wear short legged tight jeans, low waits band and a lightweight cool t-shirt (even in 40 degrees of heat!). Same at night too but a new pair!
