Mastering Black Attire in Sunny Barcelona

I’ve said it before, black during the summer months can be a sweating death sentence.

Sometimes there are situations such as a elegant dinner or a club that requires black clothing and you have suck it up knowing you’ll be sweating more than you’d actually like. This is where I am here to help keep your outfit simple, and as most comfortable possible. Which can be easily done with three simple pieces. This first is crucial, having a light fabric havana style shirt (with or without print, but common, flamingos are cute ;). Second is of course black jeans that can be rolled up for some ankle breathing room, and the third is a comfortable pair of sneakers or chucks in my case. Then BAM, you have a comfortable black outfit for any tropical location either it be Barcelona, Ibiza, Miami, or Mykonos.

As I’m sure you can tell in my face on this day only shooting around my neighborhood, I was having another glistening moment. But was happy to be able to show my neighborhood (El Raval) that I have come to really love with all of it’s tiny ancient winding roads and historic squares. It was a real delight trying to capture the essence of the city in these photos. A place I am having a wonderful time and looking forward to another exciting weekend. I hope you all are enjoying your summer too!!
