Italy Summer Packing Essentials!

[@valeriem.guerrero10]

I am traveling to Italy in 2 weeks and your videos have been lifesavers. Thanks so so much 💜 -V

[@mikaylacrawford-harris5998]

will you please do a winter version of this? I am trying to figure out what to pack for a winter roman trip. Grazie!

[@mickeyfilipponi8281]

Yes please

[@rebecca_r]

The jacket or cardigan idea is a great tip

[@ladylancelot663]

I just clicked on the video to learn how to dress nicer. Where I'm from (Phoenix, AZ), people just wear tank tops, breathable shorts and thick sandals. Italians definitely dress more fashionably but when its around or over 90F everyday of the year, comfort is all anyone cares about. Thanks for helping me out:)

[@SaintlyShadow]

I HAVE THOSE SHOES AND HAD ALREADY PACKED THEM FOR OUR TRIP TO ROME NEXT WEEK BEFORE I WATCHED THIS OMG

[@Pecas_Love]

Melissa Wickline which brand are your shoes? Im looking for shoes for my trip to Rome. Thanks

[@mariah957]

I'm from the US and studying abroad this upcoming fall in Reggio Emilia. Thank you so much for making this video it was very helpful! :)

[@rosieo3480]

A power bank is always a good idea to bring especially when traveling

[@heleen2595]

Ciao Elisa! Thanks for the tips. I moved to Rome two months ago and I already dress differently! Generally I don’t like to expose too much skin here, even if it’s really hot. That way you don’t get hold up by street vendors that much because you blend in with the locals. Maybe you could do a video about dating in Italy! Like what are the Italian customs on a date, where do people go, etc. Just asking for a friend :)

[@RomeInside]

I'm usually never too concerned about showing too much skin, but that might just be me :D Vendors can be annoying anyway haha I like the idea of the dating video! :)

[@tammybenadventures]

Cardigan sweater is what we call those 👌🏼 thanks for video.

[@Maddiesworld605]

I love your channel! I’m going to Italy in May 😍 this is so helpful

[@IrinaPetrosyan]

Can you do a video on packing for Italy in late November?

[@rachelpilato6474]

Well now I will be buying a cute backpack! I know this was 3 years ago but I think they’re still on trend??

[@evraalexandrite3770]

I have that exact shoes too! I wear it with everything.

[@emilla19]

My family will be travelling to Rome & Tuscany in November. We have been enjoying your videos! Would like to request a fall/winter wardrobe video.

[@danimendez6983]

I’m going to Italy this August and I heard it’ll be super HOT! This is very helpful! ❤️

[@rockmom62]

I've been to Italy in August, omg we did so much walking to see the sights. It's just like Las Vegas weather, like being in the desert. We were dripping sweat, begging for A/C. Not easy to find when you are out and about. How was your trip, did you have fun?

[@katiekrenn6567]

Thank you! You’re amazing! I just found you this evening! You’re so informative and easy to understand. I’m from the States. You’re coverup/light jacket, looks like a knit type of button front sweater, that we call a cardigan. A cardigan sweater (because we call nearly all knit materials that can be worn over other clothing, sweaters) refers to that button front style. You could specify a light cardigan as they can vary in the weight or thickness of the material. I look forward to being in Rome with friends, for the first time this summer!

[@RomeInside]

Thank you Katie! I sometimes get so confused with all the clothing names haha Enjoy your trip! And maybe you can pay a visit to the beach if you and your friends like it! (I have a vlog showing one of my faves near Rome)

[@mancello]

Been in Rome for two weeks. Back to NYC tomorrow. In general Italians dress better than Americans and I see few fat Romans walking about the city. Probably due to smaller portion sizes and Romans walking more than most Americans. I love the twisty hilly cobbled streets. Yes I walked around with a water bottle and filled it at public fountains. The water in Rome is great to drink. BTW,. I can't wear dresses here...my legs are too hairy.😋

Roberta Prando Don't bother be you that's all that matters. I wouldn't take any advice from the woman in glasses at the top.

[@sassytrenchcoat]

I love your videos so much! I’m going to Italy next summer on a school trip and I’m so excited to visit. Your videos have helped me such much! Thank you!

[@RomeInside]

Glad to hear that! :D

[@nicolebulhoes8750]

what would you recommend wearing in Rome and Milan in the middle of October and also towards the end of that month?

[@saralbruno]

Do this again but for fall!!! Im going to sicily mid October

[@cannetara]

Sicily is hotter than the rest of Italy, always

[@gracejean553]

This is helpful!! I am going to Fly into Venice and then visit family in Vicenza in June this year!! (6-8-19) I’m so excited!!

[@csd4819]

Hello, liked your video, we are going to Rome,Venice n Florence between 12-17 Nov . please tell which type of clothes to pack?. Have no idea of the weather at that time. Thanks

[@timgreen2426]

Back packs attract pick pockets!!

[@shleepytime]

Thank you so much for these videos they’re so helpful when planning for study abroad. What would you say is an appropriate length for dresses and skirts for a 22 year old college student?

[@RomeInside]

Any lenght you're comfortable with! :D Long, midi or mini are all fine, just be prepared to get some stares from guys and men with mini skirts

[@Rain-fl1id]

love this video! can you make a video about (cheap) restaurants in rome that you love? x

[@LM10Messsi]

Tap water( at home in Rome ) is it drinkable or not?

[@arijitdas4253]

It will be very helpful if you could suggest where to go and what to do in Rome at night if one is visiting Rome alone

[@RomeInside]

I'll try to make a video on this topic

[@arijitdas4253]

Rome Inside thanks but a request if you could make it fast as i would be visiting rome this month

[@mariaceciliarodriguez3973]

Fall essentials video please!! 🤗😱 i love your channel!

[@kathleenrizzotto6120]

I am visiting Rome and The Almafi Coast and I am wondering if It is ok to wear no sleeves(I do have cover ups or wraps to cover up) around this time of the year? I am packing loose flowy pants with no sleeve tops and dresses. Thank you

[@444honeymoon]

i’m french but i have italian origins and i’m so proud of it❤️i love italy so much

[@dominiquebastien9018]

Love your videos! We are coming to Rome early July. I was wondering if you did guided tours of the city?

[@rahrahonamission7062]

How long into September do Italians consider it still "summer", and when do you consider the transition to "autumn"? Would it be the autumn equinox, or before that?

[@RomeInside]

There isn't a rule, and it also depends on the weather. Generally speaking, I would say that till the 15th of September is considered summer :)

[@kayg_loves4811]

Thank you for this :)

[@RomeInside]

Thank you for watching!

[@agapeemenee]

I would add a portable charger for phones! Luckily I brought mine and never had to worry about my phone dying. Tonight is my last night in Rome, but I agree with the jeans!!! It’s way too hot for them.

[@RomeInside]

Allison Sharrer You're right, the portable charger is extremely useful!

[@SaraFredericaSantaMaria]

Hi...your video is very informative grazie. I will be going to Italy at the end of May. Is it summer then? Please notify me as it's my first trip to Italy

[@daniellehurrell6620]

Visiting in October...any tips for autumn?

[@RomeInside]

I love October! :) Anyway stick around, I'll make more specific videos about fall packing when summer's almost over

[@daniellehurrell6620]

Grazie!

[@rebeccag.2381]

I have a backpack purse that I was wanting to bring with me on my upcoming trip to Italy, but I just read that I may not be able to bring it into the Vatican. Will they make me check my backpack purse or do they mean big backpacks? Thank you so much for your videos!

[@rainerzufall5916]

Small backpacks or backpack purses are fine, but they wont let you in with a giant hiking backpack. Also not forget to cover your knees and shoulders, no matter wich gender.

[@mycolleeny]

You are absolutely adorable and so comfortable in front of the camera. And very very informative. Your English is lovely, and I often hear a British edge. Where your schooled in the UK?

[@mimiukas1]

its 16 in my country and 33 in north Italy. i have summer school, so i am not sure can I wear shorts :D

[@kaday_hustle]

Nice

[@vinny57ish]

Hello my lady . I have a question? What part of Italy would you recommend seeing . ?? And are there plenty of people there that speak English as well as Italian and what about guides are there plenty there ? Anyway Grazie for sharing your wonderful videos .Ciao Bella!!

[@mlynngarces3652]

vincent parlante My family & I have been to Italy twice. If you like the coast Italy has beautiful coastline. We did The Amalfi coast & Cinque Terre & Taoromina Sicily these were all beautiful. The food in Sicily was so delicious. 😋

[@katsearcy3880]

What were those boat shoe cross over? Brand?

[@RomeInside]

The brand is called Skechers

[@misssjp1553]

Hey, I'm heading to Rome in a couple of weeks, so excited! I was wondering what people wear when going out at night? Do people dress up or is it more casual? Thanks x

[@dinocarlucci2105]

miss sjp Dress as you please you will probably be the best there.

[@martinaandreozzi9337]

In Sicily you can’t drink water from the taps so you have to buy water or bring your own

[@lilybannister4098]

Ciao Elisa! I am going to Italy in autumn (October) and was wondering on how to pack for the weather? I will be in the north and middle of Italy (Rome) and am unsure on how to pack according to the varying weather across regions. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks! :)

[@RomeInside]

Hi Lily! It depends on a couple of things: when in October are you travelling and where in the North are you going. I can tell you for sure that in Rome October is a VERY mixed month: you can have sunny days 30 degrees at the beginning of the month and then it slowly cools down towards the end of the month, with more chances of rain. So the best suggestion I can give you is to layer! T-shirt, light or medium hoodie and a raincoat because you can never know. I would pack both jeans and a lighter option like a skirt, especially if you're visiting in the first half of the month. Anyway keep watching my videos so you can see even from the vlogs what I'll be wearing during that period!

[@arnojunior1948]

Ciao Elisa, Can you make a video packing essentials for man? Ciao: Arno

[@fallenangel7431]

Grazie per il video utile! Ho una domanda. Ho studiato italiano e sono stato in molti posti in Italia prima, ma mai a sud come Napoli, dove andrò per una visita. La gente capirà il mio italiano lì? Mi è stato detto che parlano solo Napoletano e sono preoccupato.

[@RomeInside]

Non preoccuparti, non è assolutamente vero che le persone al sud non parlano italiano!

[@fallenangel7431]

grazie :)

[@fallenangel7431]

grazie :)

[@trilobyte3851]

Elisa, Can you do a video on how to deal with bothersome people in Italy? Grazie - Eugene

[@RomeInside]

What type of bothersome people?

[@trilobyte3851]

People trying to take advantage of non-Italians. Scammers for one or the Italian who is yelling at you only in Italian and you have no clue why. Maybe some tips on resolution of arguments in Italy. Maybe the appropriate way to apologize to Italians Keep up your good work and may the Virgin protect you always...

[@dinocarlucci2105]

Trilobyte And what virgin would that be

[@simona7015]

7:16 u call that a cardigan x

[@simongregory3114]

So what about men, regarding pants? I find it very hard to find anything lightweight where I live. I will be in Italy in midsummer and the thought of wearing heavy jeans/chinos is pretty bad. No doubt I will break out the shorts at some point, but are nice looking, casual lightweight pants available for men in Italy? or do they all just have to be staunch and Macho???

[@RomeInside]

I understand that the heat is unbearable during summer so definitely go on wearing shorts :) IF (and only if) you'd like to appear less tourist-looking maybe pick a pair that's unicolour and doesn't have those big extra pockets on the sides (besides the regular pockets). You can find some lighter material pants here (usually linen), but I will admit it's probably easier to find them for women

[@simongregory3114]

Thanks! And no I wouldn't wear the shorts version of cargo pants, even here in Nouva Zelanda, where dressing badly is a national pastime.

[@easynow7801]

Whaaaaat

[@soniatz1]

? ( thank you so much ! great video !!! what about ripped boyfriend jeans( not to much ripped

[@RomeInside]

Thanks a lot! 😊 They're a good option too!

[@soniatz1]

thank you ! about sandals - sport sandals like KEEN ?

[@mikeyv498]

Thanks for the fashion show but what about us men? oh I know what to wear.. shorts T-shirt and flip flops!!😂😜✌

[@RomeInside]

Zack I'm dying hahahaha Pede Dete I'm trying to involve my brother in these videos so that I can show you some male outfits too :)

[@purpleb1703]

Its cardigan not jacket 😊

[@mariaathenaandig2598]

Cover up = cardigan

[@lizcorbett2587]

Your "thin jacket" looks like a very thin cardigan

[@alexwalsh541]

Liz Corbs I’m pretty sure English isn’t her first language, she probably just meant light layers

[@RomeInside]

Yeah it actually has bottons on the front but I never use them so it might be considered a cardigan I guess :) Alex you're right, english is not my first language and sometimes it's hard to find an equivalent for a word. We have a generic word "giacchetto" which is probably most similar to "light layer", so thanks :)

[@wellwhatdoyakno6251]

I paused at the 1st second my love to say how loving and amazing you are, I believe Indians and Italians/Germans/Russians/Mexicans are made for each other. When you come to Silicon Valley/ I would love to see you ! Muah! Love you. PS: I didn't watch the video but love you anyway.

[@JamesNathanielHolland]

And for guys? I don't think I would look good in the blousy pants? hehehe.
