Booklady,
thanks for the tips but i definitely won't be packing any scarves, i've always hated them, just not my style. :p

i forgot to ask, what's the weather like in September, i'm going in the first week of September. i'm guesssing i'll need a light jacket/sweater at night? also what are the swimsuit styles for the beach? i like to wear practically nothing for a swimsuit, lol (my Mom says all my swimsuits look like 3 handkerchiefs if that much), so i'm guessing i should be fine, lol.

Definetley dress up in Spain, in the south anyway the women dress impecably, bags and shoes match their outfits!i was in the south for few months last summer and took to their style , bought some bright clothes and felt sexy!except back in Ireland it just doesn;t work(female jealosy?)don't dress like a tourist!!!

"bags and shoes match their outfits!"

Well, is there any other way to dress?!

LOL, pim

Yeah, well, my bag RARELY matches my shoes, let alone the rest of my outfit!

I would have to say that the best dressed women in spain are in sevilla. The thing is that they accessorize. in granada think "rasta" since many young women sport dreds think hippie. In barcelona think urban chic. In madrid. Madrid is a little tough. There are many styles, think grunge, professional, classic, preppy,to jeans with puma sneakers. Khakis in spain are out. I don't remeber seeing any spanish man or woman in khaki's,. You are more likely to see a german or a brit in khaki's. I hate khakis. In the us it bacame the uniform of the dot com generation. Damn I miss those spanish women! check out www.bcnnightlife.com

The dot coms gramps, actually.
