DITCH THE 'TOURIST' TAG: DRESS LIKE A LOCAL IN 10 EUROPEAN CITIES

So you're on your way to Europe and you're wondering what to pack? Of course there is something to be said for people who just want to be comfortable... but what about the more fashion-forward travelers?

Of course you wouldn't want to stick out like a sore thumb, and there are some DEFINITE ways to keep that I'm a tourist sign off of your back (avoid wearing a fanny pack, neck-dangling Nikon camera, and that I Love Rome t-shirt), but let's dig a bit deeper...

Besides being safer, and more socially-acceptable, looking more like a local is just plain FUN! While European fashion for foreigners can be a bit daunting, and is not an exact science, here is a quick cheat-sheet for Dressing Like a Local in 10 Major European Cities:

1. Amsterdam, Netherlands

Women: Ankle-length leggings or thick tights under dresses, skirts, or shorts, knit caps

Footwear: Bright, sporty sneakers and flat boots

Do: Bring an extra waterproof layer - rain can come quickly and unexpectedly

Don't: Wear baseball caps, flip-flops, or golf visors these are considered tacky and will instantly label you as a tourist

2. Berlin, Germany
