The people of Thailand, the food, the shopping and the carefree tips of lifestyle they live definitely won me over. Now that I’m home I only have the memories, the pictures and the things I brought home with me to remember this beautiful country by.
I want to share my fashion findings from my trip to Thailand with you!
Thai silk
Thai silk is unbelievably good value and it makes an excellent present to bring home to family and friends. Its quality is unequalled in other Southeast Asian countries, and one can pick up a range of different clothing and household items for an extremely inexpensive price. From silk scarves to shawls, shirts, ties, bags, headscarves and jackets – you name it, you’ll find it! I thought my trip to Thailand was a prime opportunity to stock up on all things silk in my wardrobe.
Harem pants
No trip to Thailand is complete without picking up a few pairs of bamboo harem pants! They can be found in almost every single market in Thailand’s touristy areas. They are extremely popular and it’s impossible to take a stroll down Khao San Road without bumping into someone who is sporting this fashionable trend. Harem pants are probably the most comfortable trousers you will ever wear, and they come in a wide range of bright colors and funky patterns too. Regardless of what style of clothes you wear at home, harem pants will become one of your favorite wardrobe items whilst in Thailand. I couldn’t live without my eight pairs!
Gold jewelry and gems
Thailand has become known as one of world most famous hubs for gold jewelry and gem stones, and the country is now a world supplier of jade and sapphire. Every small town in Thailand has a jewelry shop that sells beautiful gold jewelry.
