Dear College Roomie Caryn: Here’s What To Wear In Europe

Caryn Goes to Italy

A few weeks ago my college roomie Caryn (above) asked us for help in coming up with stuff to wear on her upcoming trip to Spain, France, and Italy. Coincidentally, since I’m broke as a joke (thanks, homeownership) and can’t afford to actually BUY anything, I’ve been Pinning a sh*t ton of looks lately; I guess I’m vicariously living thru my Pins and pretending I’m going to follow thru and BUY the stuff I’m saving. Bless my heart.

So with this new assignment, I looked for inexpensive looks that were cute (duh), easy, breezy, and could be worn on either a leisurely day checking out the sites, or at a lovely romantic dinner with her cute younger boyfriend (sorry gurl; you know I had to slip that in there). Oh, and keep in mind she has a pretty bangin’ body, so she’s going to look so cute in these pretty little outfits:

So Caryn: Here are some fashion finds I’D recommend for you, you vixen you:
