#1 Comfortable jeans

First of all, in case you want to visit Greece this winter, the first and the most important thing that you have to keep in mind if you want to enjoy your trip is to be comfortable, in order to walk around and be amazed by the many city museums and landmarks.  Unquestionably a good and stylish pair of jeans can be the best choice for your trip, as you can wear them all day and still look good. You can take a look at yourmedstyle.com to choose the perfect pair of jeans according to your style and your body type. A quality pair of jeans will be the one piece of clothing that you should always take with you on a trip, especially in Greece. 

#2 Light sweaters

In case you are travelling to Greece for the first time, you should know that the weather can be very cold one day, then have the sun shining on another. Yes, even in the winter season there is a mix of some days where the sun is bright and others that could be raining – usually not for long, but raining nonetheless. From time to time you can even see snow in Athens but this is something that doesn’t happen every winter. If you want to be prepared for any scenario, you must pack with you some light clothing such as lightweight sweaters and jackets that are suitable for rain or shine.

#3 A nice pair of boots and sneakers

Last but not least, when it comes to shoes, you have to consider packing with you a nice pair of boots and comfy trainers. Actually, if the weather is not very cold, in the mornings you will need just sneakers to walk around the cities, feeling comfortable. However, when night comes and the weather can turn cold, a pair of boots can then be combined perfectly with your look.
