In my 40s, divorced 1.5 years. Can you dress me for this trip?


Jeans. Tees for layering. Tennis shoes. No show socks. Warm layer - sweater or cardigan. Not sweatshirt. Jacket to throw on top for dinner. Small umbrella. Sexy nightwear and underwear.

Why are you so rude? First of all, you’re ageist and sexist. Secondly, I’m 44 and still get plenty of attention from men. But third and most important, your response has nothing to do with OP’s post.

OP, have a great time!

Pack a good waterproof jacket and nice shoes you can walk in. Dress a bit nicer than you usually would. If you wear REI gear you will stand out

I'm sure that's exactly how this new guy will enjoy spending time together on their vacation.

Does anyone have a fashion travel blog they trust? I am sometimes in this situation too, I would not like to look like a tourist but sometimes the blogs I read end up being way off the mark, as if they made up being there

I think OP wanted to look cute for the guy she is going with, not random dudes, based on her post

We were there last summer- definitely layers and comfortable shoes to walk in. I mainly wore jeans, long sleeve tees and a spring jacket. Great cities! Have a fun time

My mom wore super 90s hot pink and teal all over Europe and had a great time. You'll be good. Layer up for the Norway in a Nutshell tour.

Pack a raincoat. It rains a lot in Copenhagen.
