Sneakers and a dress

''This is your formula to look like an expensive-looking tourist this summer.''

Although this might not apply to glam evening dresses, there are countless daytime skirts and dresses that look elegant paired with white trainers.

Linen

''To look more expensive in summer, you have to wear more linen.''

Not only will your outfit appear more chic, but linen, unlike polyester which traps heat, is a breathing fabric that will allow your skin to cool.

''That is what downgrades your appearance. That is what gives you more masculinity,'' Anna said.

Dress modestly

''If you know you're gonna be sightseeing and especially visiting churches, temples, don't wear your hot pants, don't wear your crop top, don't wear shorts, don't wear spaghetti straps.

''Dress a little bit more modestly.

''I think it's important to respect other people,'' Anna explained.

A daytime hat

''Number six how to look expensive as a tourist is when you add a beautiful daytime hat.

''Have a little bit more glam going on.''

The hat, whether it's a beach hat or a straw hat, will also protect your head from the harsh sun and heat.

Avoid backpacks and fanny packs

''If you're someone who wants to, let's say, improve your femininity, I think those two bags are gonna give you a lot of masculine energy.''

Anna also chuckled: ''Whenever I wear a backpack, I feel a little bit like I'm a dork back at school again.''

Instead, she recommended, opt for a small crossover bag.

Sleeveless shirts

''They might look like you're wearing a little bit more fabric but actually, you have loads of breathing space.

''When you wear that together with a high-waist skirt or a high-waist short, it just gives you that elegance.''

Avoid jeans hot pants

''I don't think it's a very attractive garment.''

Rather than packing a pair of denim shorts, Anna advised to swap these for ones made of linen or white bottoms.

''It's easy to style because any colour can match those white shorts.''
