Dress code

The Scenic dress code is a casual one.

Sometimes they host special events and the best thing to do is to look on their website for more information about the dress code for these special occasions.

In general, you can start packing with comfort in mind because that's the most important factor that will allow you to have a fantastic time.

Walking shoes

We often disregard the importance of shoes when it comes to our outfits. Don't make this mistake when going on a cruise!

You need walking shoes that will allow you to feel comfortable the whole time. If you pack any fancy outfits, you need a pair of dress shoes as well.

Otherwise, focus on feeling good and choose comfortable and waterproof flat shoes. Luckily, you can now purchase affordable and ethical shoes made from vegan materials.

Dress in layers

Layers in your clothes can help you look like a fashion pro.

This is also extremely practical because layers can easily be removed and put back on whenever needed.

Whether you add a shirt on top of a T-shirt, or a jacket on top of a cardigan on top of a tank top, dressing in layers will help you be fashionable and stay cozy.

Breathable materials

High-quality materials can make all the difference!

Never purchase clothes that are made from poor-quality materials, no matter how much you like the design.

This will save you a lot of money because poor-quality materials are unhealthy, uncomfortable, and don't last you a long time.

Waterproof jacket

Never go on a cruise without bringing a waterproof jacket. You can easily find such a jacket for every season. Wear it with a pair of jeans and a tank top combination, or over a dress.
