The Heat
Traveling in the middle of summer can be unbearable. Here are some things that will hopefully make it more comfortable for you!
No matter where you are vacationing, even if it is not on the beach, you must wear sunscreen. Especially, in the summer. If you are exploring a new town, you will be in the sun all day. Please protect your skin!

This is something you should wear no matter the weather or season. Protect that beautiful face of yours.

If you part your hair in the middle or have a visible part you NEED this. I work outside in the summer and use the sun bum hair screen. I love it! My scalp would cry without it.

If you are in Europe, you will look like a tourist. However, in the hot hot sun, it is worth it. Just double check that the attractions are okay with it!

The Rain
No one likes the rain, but when traveling sometimes you have no choice. Don't let the rain stop you from visiting a new city. I love how cities look after a fresh rain.
This one is a no-brainer you need an umbrella ALWAYS. No matter what the weather says. These ones are small. Keep them at the bottom of your travel bag!
Compact Umbrellas - Target
Get some kind of boots. Docs are in style so no one will know they are your “rain boots”.

These can be harder to pack. I would only pack them if I knew it was raining for a few days on my trip. However, you can style super cute outfits with rainboots even on non rainy days.

Get a waterproof bag to keep your valuables safe and dry. If this is too much you can even get a pouch and put your money and other valuables in it.

Get a rain jacket so your clothes underneath do not get wet! This will keep you feeling dry and comfortable all day.

I have a whole list on how to stay warm while traveling. This is just the essentials.
Get fleece-lined tights and put them under any clothes for a cute but super warm fit! I slide them under jeans and you can't even tell.

Thermal shirts ensure your body stays warm without ruining your outfit. You can use it as your main shirt or just an extra layer.

Docs are not only good for the rain but also the snow. They keep your feet warm and dry.

Scarfs are a great way to ensure that you are staying warm. Plus this past winter they were super trendy!

I LOVE my fuzzy earmuffs. They are precious and functional!

Peacoats allow you to be warm but also look adorable! I love the neutral-colored ones (cream, brown, and black) but also like a dark green color!

The Wind
The wind makes it COLD so layer accordingly. Look in the “cold” section for base layers!
Windbreakers make the wind feel less cold. They can be styled cute as well. Look up inspo on Pinterest.
