Preparation
First of all, look at the weather. The choice of clothing depends on it. The European winter takes place in moderate temperatures: from 15 to -10 maximum. Minus temperatures are more common in Austria, Hungary and the Czech Republic, the rest of the countries remain at zero or at the plus mark. The mountains, of course, will be colder than in the city.

Outerwear
Plus temperature implies snowfalls and even rains. Therefore, we recommend to get a waterproof jacket and necessarily with a hood. Endurance outerwear choose up to -5 degrees, and if down to wear a warm sweater, so you will not freeze even with a long walk. A good choice is jackets made of membrane. They look thin, but warm well.
Things from cashmere will also be in the subject. Comfortable, soft and warm, do not take up much space in the bag. There are only a lot, but pay attention to winter sales - this is a chance to buy things from natural cashmere for an acceptable price.

If your holiday involves hiking or going out to nature/parks, be sure to keep an eye on your warm rustling pants. Now there are a lot of models of calm colors that do not look sporty. Jeans with barbs here are still not the best option.
