Are ripped jeans OK in Spain?

Don't: wear jeans with a ton of holes Ripped jeans might be the style in the States but too much of a good thing can go wrong. Wearing jeans that are too distressed are considered inappropriate unless you are going to a night club. One or two rips is fine, but stay away from extremely tattered jeans.

You don't want to be seen as unprofessional and too relaxed. If you work in a more relaxed environment, where people don't have to wear suits every day, then you can probably get away with wearing ripped jeans. But if you're not sure, ask your boss, manager, colleagues, or HR for their opinion first.

To not stand out as a tourist, wear what the locals wear--- neutral colors, scarves, and layers. Second, tourists should look like they know where they're going even if they don't. Standing on the street, looking confused, and staring at a map easily identifies people as tourists.

All these items are a must for your Europe packing list. Wearing jeans is not my first choice, but if you wear them with a pair of boots, a nice top and a blazer, you'll be just fine. For fall or spring, a trench coat or a blazer that you can wear over your dress, or with any pair of pants.
