How to not look like a Lonely Planet Host


Have you ever watched an episode of Lonely Planet/ Globe Trekkers? In fact, have you ever watched any travel show before? Am I wrong to say that they all dress like this?




Why? Why oh why must they always dress like this? Is it because it screams, "I am a serious traveller! I don't care about looking good! It's about feeling comfortable and seeing the world!"

Honestly, dressing well doesn't make you any less of a professional traveller and it doesn't have to mean forsaking comfort. And when travelling, we do not want to be immediately recognized as a tourist because we have the touristic uniform of looking frumpy. So in order to prove this point, I shall show what outfits are traveller-approriate and fashionista-friendly. In honor of the fact that my last holiday was in Phuket, Thailand. I shall begin with beach holidays.




As you can see, light and airy clothes are the way to go. Shorts are an absolute must and can be used to match any top. Sneakers help you survive those long hours of walking and with a nice dress, is night-club chic. And most of all, you don't look like a lonely-planet host.
