traveling to the city that known as the center of mode or fashion, we managed to look so good or local people will look at us oddly. but we’re as traveler didn’t carry that much cloth to always look casual 
so here 10 cloth you should put on your backpack to make you look casual at traveling or backpacking.
1. Jeans
Jeans were invented for travelers. And cowboys. They don’t need ironing, no thief can get his hand in the front pocket, and you can wipe your sweat, grease and mucous on them without making too much of a stain.
2. A Hooded Top
Sometimes you just want to curl up and hide on the road without a hundred curious pairs of eyes seeking yours. Pull up the hood and you’re in world of your own. It’ll also save you from catching your death of cold when hitchhiking on a windy mountain road.
3. Decent Shoes
Your footwear is worth investing in. Sandals just don’t cut it with immigration and going barefoot leaves you open to catching ringworm. Boots are heavy to cart around and are too hot in tropical climates. A good pair of leather deck shoes, though will suit you in any climate. Just make sure they’re dark enough not to look too beaten up after the first few scratches.
4. A Blanket
Like Ford Prefect’s towel, a blanket can keep you dry, warm and serves as a useful weapon in close hand-to-hand fighting. A blanket can be a cushion on uncomfortable bus journeys and you’ll eventually learn to sleep with it pulled entirely over your head, protecting you from the cold, mosquitoes and curious passersby when sleeping outside.
5. A Lunghi
A lunghi is the oriental version of the blanket. Lightweight and easy to wash, it makes a good towel and can be worn around the neck to mop up facial sweat.
6. Something Smart
Even if you’re going to be hanging out with grungy hippies most of the time, there will be times when you need to look the part. Maybe you’re going for a visa extension, maybe you’re about to catch a plane and don’t want to look like a drug smuggler. A good wrinkle-free shirt or dress can transform your appearance from vagabond to respectable tourist in moments.
7. String
Staying clean and smelling good on the road will win you the respect of the locals, make you welcome in people’s homes and improve your love life no end. So carry a bar of soap and a ball of string to make an impromptu washing line beneath the fan in your hotel room.
8. No Iron
Only the most uptight traveler would travel with a plug-in iron but you can still lose the wrinkled I-slept-in-a-ditch-last-night look by shaking out your wet laundry before you hang them up. That way all the water goes to the bottom of the clothes and gravity helps pull it straight.
9. Don’t Buy Clothes in Tourist Shops
The thin grab on sale in backpacker ghettoes usually tears in a matter of days and marks you out as the kind of idiot who buys clothes in shops made for travelers. If you wonder why you get hassled to buy stuff all the time, take a look at what you’re wearing.
10. Bury Incense in Your Backpack
It’s tough to stay fresh and clean all the time. Get caught in the rainy season and your clothes might not dry or it might be so hot that you get through your entire wardrobe every 3 days. Bury a few opened packets of incense in your backpack and you’ll carry exotic scents with you wherever you go.

London College of Fashion, one the world’s leading providers of fashion education and exponent of the multi-billion pound fashion industry – today announced a collaboration to celebrate 150 years of a very British icon, the Tuxedo.
London College of Fashion (LCF) which attracts creative talent from all over the world, has teamed up with internationally renowned Henry Poole & Co of Savile Row and luxury fabric supplier Dormeuil on this major project to re-invent the Tuxedo for the 21st century: The Little Black Jacket – Celebrating 150 years of the Tuxedo.
The resulting work will travel internationally to a number of destinations, including as a ‘pop-up’ in Harrods and the Burlington Arcade in London and to Tuxedo Park in New York , where the black jacket was first worn in America – with other international dates for 2012 to follow shortly. Visitors will have the opportunity to chart the Tuxedo, a garment that effortlessly sums up traditional values of Britishness, excellence, fashion and sophisticated style – from its invention by Henry Poole and Co in Savile Row in 1860 to the legendary status that is has today.
Re-inventing the Tuxedo for the 21st century are a group of talented LCF BA (Hons) Bespoke Tailoring students who have been partnered with actors from the Drama Centre at LCF’s sister college Central Saint Martin’s to create tailor made tuxedos. To illustrate the creative process two films have been produced – the first a behind the scenes documentary, the second a stunning black and white fashion short.
As well as creating bespoke tuxedos, LCF has commissioned a publication by bringing together high profile faces from its extensive network of supporters, including Chairman of the British Fashion Council Harold Tillman CBE (himself an LCF tailoring alumnus) who has personally endorsed the project as a “perfect example of some of the finest British craftsmanship.” Other VIP stars who have been shot in their favourite Tuxedos, with an accompanying vignette outlining what makes this distinctive item of clothing so iconic, include supermodel Marie Helvin, musician Mr Hudson, Gordon Richardson (Topman) and jeweller Robert Tateossian.
Professor Frances Corner OBE, Head of College at London College of Fashion has also been photographed in a specially designed Tuxedo, which has been accepted attire for women as well as men even before Yves Saint Laurent’s stunning interpretation in the 1960s. She commented, “The Little Black Jacket project has been a wonderful and rare opportunity for students from different disciplines and courses – from design and styling to film and photography – to collaborate with industry and across colleges within University of the Arts London, to immerse themselves in this creative and exciting brief celebrating the 150th Anniversary of the Tuxedo. This project has already attracted extraordinary interest and we are currently in discussion with various partners in the UK and overseas illustrating the iconic power of the Tuxedo.”
With a resurgence of interest in menswear, there is no better time for London College of Fashion to talk Tuxedo for the 21st Century!

Having great looking clothes does not necessarily mean having to spend your month’s salary in order to create your personal wardrobe. The important factor to take into account is that it is not the quantity that counts, but the quality of the clothing and the variations you purchase.
Better quality clothing does not mean that it will be more expensive, try to choose fabrics that are superior, for they will hang better to flatter your figure and last longer. The ideal alternative is a well-fitting skirt in a high quality fabric such as lightweight wool, which you may use throughout several seasons; avoid filling your wardrobe with badly fitting, multicolored skirts. A dark color such as black, navy or dark gray is a perfect choice, for you may wear it with different jackets every time as well as other accessories; this will change the overall look completely.
So try build up your wardrobe on a lower budget selecting a few dark skirts and pants as well as a few jackets and tops making sure the fabric is of very good quality, in order to fit better and last longer. Choose amongst fabrics such as linen, wool gabardine or wool crepe, these always fit better, and look for alternatives such as tighter fitting clothing or looser clothing for comfort; also look for belt loops that can change the appearance of the skirt or pants.
To further enhance women’s clothing, accessories are also important, these will embellish a particular item and can change the form of the clothing completely. You may look for inspiration in fashion magazines or at fashion shows, where you can get great ideas to coordinate different accessories to your clothing. Belts are very good accessory alternatives, you should opt for a leather belt with a distinctive buckle. Silk scarves can also remarkably change the look of women’s clothing, when worn over the shoulder or over one shoulder fastened with a brooch.
Make sure you use sound judgment when shopping, this will considerably help with a low budget; choose colors that suit you for the color scheme is one of the most important factors in women’s clothing. Look out for the contrast the colors have with your complexion and figure and match the skirts, pants and jackets with the blouses or tops. Try varying the colors and abandon those neutral colors that you feel may be safer to wear; try wearing cobalt or peacock blue with a brown suit, or deep purple with a moss green colored suit; be a little more daring!
Once you have chosen the fit and styles, shop around during sales at the shops that sell better quality women’s clothing that suit your tastes; it is a waste of time searching through all the shops, choose your favorite clothing shop and visit every few weeks or so, until you find the right outfit and price to go with it. Consignment shops are also a good solution for designer clothes at budget prices, make a list of the clothing you need and have it handy, this will avoid all unnecessary expense on items you do not really need.
