Has anyone been there recently? Or better yet, do you live there? This would be a huge HUGE help! I will be traveling there next month with DBF and I need some advice on what clothes/accessories to pack He lived in France for a while, so I want to fit in when we go and not embarrass him by looking like a tourist... lol. Whenever I ask him what I should bring, he just says "things that are dressy and warm"
I'd like to think I'm pretty up-to-date with current fashions and I'm somewhat stylish.. But I swear, the last time I went to Paris a few years ago, I stuck out so badly! Even though I thought I packed okay, I realized after I got there that none of the stuff I brought looked like what the locals were wearing! I got a lot of awkward stares. They dress beautifully and very differently there. I just need some pointers on how to pack. What's "in" in France right now?
I'm going in January, so I know it will be cold. We'll be there for approximately 5-6 days. I just need some nice street clothes, a few "going-out" outfits, and an outfit for a baptism at a church we will be attending. Any pointers on what would be appropriate?
Seriously guys- I'm a TERRIBLE packer, I need all the help I can get! Thanks
