What type of footwear & basics are they wearing in Europe this winter?
What type of footwear are they wearing in Europe this winter? I’m going to Germany & Prague for the Christmas & New Year holidays. What should I bring for basics?
Footwear is looking very practical. Women want to be comfortable. Low heeled knee-high boots or ankle boots, oxfords and athletic shoes are favorites. It will be very cold that time of year. Travel basics: choose one basic color (black, navy, brown, gray) and everything else you bring should go with that color. Bring pants/jeans for day and 2 pairs of pants for evening in your basic color. They pack easily and will not wrinkle if you put plastic cleaning bags in their folds. One pencil style skirt (optional) for day or evening. Bring tops in different colors (washable if possible) and a cardigan sweater in your basic color. A few accessories like scarves, costume jewelry and/ or belts will help vary your look. Bring boots (ankle and /or knee-high), 2 pairs of shoes that are comfortable for daytime activities and 1 dress up pair of shoes. Wear a warm coat or jacket (puffers are popular) that goes with your outfits. Your holiday sounds wonderful. Prepare to bundle up.

What jewelry basics should I pack when I travel?
Jewelry basics are pieces that will go with everything. Pearls go with anything and will work for daytime and / or evening and are always very chic. A chunky necklace in your favorite metal (gold and /or silver) and a necklace with multi colored beads that will go with many items are versatile. You can wear several necklaces together some evenings. Wear a pair of earrings and pack another pair for sightseeing during the day. For evening events bring two pairs of earrings. Pearl earrings and one other pair of earrings that will work with your necklaces are enough. Never bring expensive jewelry or jewelry that has a sentimental value with you when you travel. Pack as few pieces of jewelry as possible, (pieces that go with everything), that will be easy to keep track of when packing and unpacking.

Vienna street fashion is dynamic. These street fashion photos were taken in late October and early November and it is cold! Quilted coats, scarves, hats and gloves are popular street fashion. Women love slim leg pants, denim and tights to keep their legs warm. Footwear is looking very practical. Women want to be comfortable.
