Different times of the year require you to dress differently and different occasions require you to dress differently.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Dressing According To Weather:</span><br /><br />As I have said in my earlier posts, Dubai is always very hot, especially for the <a href="http://tour-dubai.blogspot.com/2008/06/what-americans-travelling-to-dubai.html">Americans traveling to Dubai</a>, who come from subzero temperatures and have to withstand temperatures of up to 50 Degrees Celsius. So it is always recommended that you pack light cotton clothes for your trip. <a href="http://tour-dubai.blogspot.com/2008/03/tips-while-travelling-in-dubai.html">Click here for more details.</a><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Dressing Appropriately:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Inside The Hotel:</span><br /><br />Inside the hotel, women can move around in their bikinis. Nothing wrong with that. But once you move out of your hotel, bikinis are a strict no-no. Even for the guys, inside the hotel, you can roam around in your shorts or Bermudas. You will mostly find only westerners inside the hotel. So, dressing inside the hotel will not be much of a problem.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Outside The Hotel:</span><br /><br />The UAE as a whole is very religious and the last thing you would want to do is to hurt their sentiments. And dressing plays a very large role. So you should be aware of how to dress while traveling in <a href="http://tour-dubai.blogspot.com/">Dubai</a>.<br />Traditional Arab women generally wear long robes and head scarves. You do not need to wear exactly that, but there are some rules that you will have to follow.<br /><br />Firstly, you should avoid wearing shorts or tight skirts in public places. Though I have seen women who wear clothes that are considered offensive even in the West, I strictly believe that you should respect the sentiments of the locals.<br /><br />Even for the men, avoid wearing t-shirts with offensive or vulgar messages. They are not received well in <a href="http://tour-dubai.blogspot.com/">Dubai</a>. Dress as per the occasion. And remember, the less the exposure, the better.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">While On An Official Trip:</span><br /><br />While on an official trip, you should dress only in formals. Some offices are fine with short sleeves and jeans, but not all are as tolerant. As for the women, as I said, try avoiding skirts and stick to shirts and trousers.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">So on the whole, shorts and sleeveless clothes are the best options while dressing inside the hotel. But during the hot months, I would say that shorts are the best way to dress in order to battle the heat, though it is considered offensive by some locals. So wearing exposing clothes has its advantages and disadvantages, and depending on which part of Dubai you are in, you should decide for yourself which is best.</span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6258959240472824159-1036183826397194846?l=tour-dubai.blogspot.com'/></div>Neugent Realityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17942243304636116657neugentreality@gmail.com0
