I would be travelling to Spain(Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Seville, Majorka) in July.

Any suggestions on what to wear? Shoes? etc.

Do not wear short shorts in cities like Madrid or Barcelona. It is inappropriate. My girlfriend was “cat called” constantly, and mistaken for a hooker. She was called a “Jinetera”, which is not a compliment, and was even refused service at a bank.

I have recently been to Barcelona.( 1 week ago)It was very hot and most of them were wearing shorts.I do not know whether they were tourists or Spanish.I did not take any shorts after reading about the dress code in Barcelona but decided to buy one to blend with the crowd.It was summer sale time and I could find mostly shorts and short skirts only .( no medium or long skirts).Very surprising considering the reviews I had seen before.

Much of what is written is for women. What do men mostly wear? Jeans [what color blue/blk], khakis, sandals, knit shirts, evening [slacks, khakis, black], sneakers/shoes?

Do people wear short shorts often? Or should I leave that to the beach?

Moral of the story:
The most important thing is dressing your age & body type w/comfort in mind of your daily activities.

Dushi:
TOTALLY glad you wrote this… to clear the air b/c i’m not sure how old some of these peps are but i’m 25 and have travel Europe… going to Madrid next…
This world is so global and i would imagine the fashion is the same as any other city in europe ie: Athens - Paris - Rome
Everyone trys to tell you how different other city peps dress… in reality its pretty much the same…
Some peps dress fashionable… like i try to do w/ comfort…
Others feel the need to be 100% tourist.
REMEMBER you are gonna tak elots of pics so dress cute & not like a tourist!

It´s such fun to read this as I´m spanish!
I´ve recently traveled and been to Fuerteventura, Madrid and Zaragoza, and definitely you´ll see lots of short dresses, gladiators and many other sandals, leggings, flats…
I susbscribe the advice of leaving room in the suitcase to buy lovely clothes and shoes.
Have a nice holiday in Spain!
