What should I wear in Paris in August?

Question

Heading to Ghent, Belgium and Paris for a quick 4-day trip to join husband after business trip. Searching for comfy yet fashionable shoes for cobblestone streets and easy, affordable, somewhat trendy clothes. Is this mission impossible?

Answer 1

How many cobbled streets do you think there are? :-)

Not too many I can tell you. Just buy what ever you feel comfortable walking in for hours,,,let fashionable be the second requirement.

Should be warm enough so dress light  with maybe a wrap for an evening stroll by the Seine.  

Enjoy...

Answer 2

Summer clothes.  I found that comfortable shoes were essential, since I spend so many hours walking around, even though they make you scream AMERICAN!!!  I decided I just didn't care.

And, yeah, the sidewalks are largely "cobbled", or grooved in small tiles, so that you really don't want to be wearing heels unless you are used to wearing them on these pavements.
