I am going to Europe for 2 weeks in early July- Netherlands, Belgium and France (Paris and Provence)
So far I am going to pack:
-2 Chinos from Jcrew, beige and gray
-1 Jeans
-Light pink shorts
-2 Semi V-necks from Jcrew
-2 button down shirts
-Brown Alligator Skin belt, plain black leather belt
-Black Light cashmere/silk cardigan, paper thin from Hyden Yoo
-Tan leather Boat Shoes
-Brown/tan leather sandals
-Black hooded rain windbreaker
Now some of that is what I'll actually be wearing the on plane.
What I am having issue with is a jacket. I will not be doing any 5 star restaurants but I am thinking that in Brussels or Amsterdam a blazer with pants and a polo or shirt, even a t-shirt might be good for days at museums or dinner at local restaurants. I got about 6 blazers that might work for the summer, ranging from Cotton to silk to wool. I can post them later. I was thinking about even buying one on ebay. I am looking at an unlined wool Armani Black Label jacket thats brand new. I really have no idea what to do about it. I just don't want to bring a blazer that is too warm or not warm enough.
The other issue is should I bring a polo shirt or two. Also would a light cotton sweater be recommended
