I’m an elegance coach – avoid eight clothes so you don’t look like a tourist and risk getting scammed abroad
ONE elegance expert has revealed her summer wardrobe no-nos that will make you look like a tourist on vacation.
She claimed eight clothes should be avoided to reduce the risk of getting scammed abroad.
Anna Bey (@AnnaBeyOfficial) posted a video to explain her theory on why you should want to dress like a local.
“Tourists can have a distinctive look,” she proclaimed.
According to Anna, you should stray from that style.
“If you’re traveling to another culture, you might want to try and blend in a little bit,” she said.
Dressing as the locals do can save you more money than you think.
Anna explained that some shop owners could charge tourists higher prices.
She admitted: “People may take advantage of you.”
Tourists will opt for sporty lounge looks for their vacation wardrobe.
Flip-flops, backpacks, running shoes, baseball hats, T-shirts, leggings, sports shorts, and jeans are all typical clothing choices for them.
And while Anna supports prioritizing comfort, she encouraged finding clothing that didn’t look so leisurely.
“If you don’t want to look like a tourist, you shouldn’t wear any of those things,” Anna proclaimed.
Viewers had mixed opinions about Anna’s advice.
One YouTube user said: “Spent some time in western Europe and agree with not wearing leggings.”
“No matter how you dress, if you speak a different language than them, they’re gonna know that you’re a foreigner and might charge higher,” one honest person remarked.
An experienced viewer wrote: “As a German, I find this somewhat amusing. Because all the examples look exactly like what ‘the natives’ tend to wear as casual wear in summer.”
“I think not looking like a tourist is more about what you do than what you wear,” one commenter added.
