2. Hechos Culturales Here's a list of a few Do's and Don'ts while in Spain: DO: Dress up. When in doubt, dress up, not down, for the occasion. Wear jeans. They're popular, and neutral- they go with anything. Wear nice shoes, not ones that are falling apart. As a tourist you want to wear shoes that will support you in the amount of walking you'll do. To business meetings: If you're a man- wear jacket and tie. If a woman then wear a dress or skirt. DON'T: Wear shorts into a church. (Show some respect, religion is still a large part of their lifestyle.) Wear mini-skirts (or shorts) in the city. It's ok for the beach, but otherwise you'll be recognized as tourist. Keep the strappy tops and skimpy bikini tops for the beach, too, otherwise, expect some unwanted attention. Wear brightly colored clothes. Stick to neutral colors, and coordinating your outfit. Look like a tourist. Thieves/pickpockets are watching for you. So, no shorts, sandals, or super casual clothing unless you're at the beach.
