Summer Fashion in Spain

I just came back from an amazing summer trip to Spain where I visited the historic capital of Madrid, beautiful world heritage city of Toledo, the astonishing Roman aqueduct in Segovia, and the home of the famous Valley of the Fallen San Lorenzo del Escorial.

Aside from enjoying the great weather, unbelievable food, and rich history, I had the chance to experience the fashion sense of the Spaniards and Europeans at large.

Women wore lots of high-waist shorts and pants, an amazing variety of flat sandals, good quality leather messenger bags, plenty of dresses, and especially Aladdin pants with beautiful patterns. I noticed an overall bohemian, but at the same time very fashion forward feel on the streets.

Here are some pictures. Enjoy!
