Madrid, Spain: What to wear + where to eat, drink, stay & explore
What To Wear For Him And Her
Comfort is key while traveling for both Matt and me, especially when we’ve just arrived in a city. It was equally important for Matt and I to feel fashionable while adjusting to the time zone, as we did comfortable, which is why we stocked up on Paige’s new fall line before heading out to Madrid, Spain.
I loved how on trend each item was in the women’s line — from ruffles and stripes, to velvet body suits, cropped denim, and cute scarf’s to tie in my hair or around my neck. I was SO comfortable but felt so confident and put together. The best thing about these items is they can all be styled together. I wore one pair of jeans with three tops and looked like I had a new outfit on each time.
For the men’s line, I was really impressed with the soft fabrics making these items not only look amazing but they feel even better. I swear if I could sleep in these Croft jeans I would. The bomber was also perfect to bring along for a day full of exploring because Madrid can cool down at night.
