Thank you for responding. Haha -- definitely no speedos!!! I think I've figured it out...just black tapered pants with black flats. Won't be too heavy & I can also use them throughout Spain.

Hi - we have cruised Princess many times but stopped doing formal nights years ago. We typically use those nights to visit the specialty restaurants and we wear nice clothes (dress pants & dress shirt/blouse). We're doing a transatlantic cruise next year from Fort Lauderdale to Southampton. When we disembark we are going to spend the next month traveling throughout Italy, Spain & Portugal but since we will be traveling by train, we'd like to keep our packing somewhat light. We'd really rather not schlep dress clothes and dress shoes (especially given how heavy men's can be!) with us when we won't be using them for the month. Any suggestions for how we can still frequent the specialty restaurants - just what would be appropriate. Obviously no shorts, tank tops, etc! Also, wouldn't be opposed to bringing them and mailing them back home (US) from the airport in Heathrow. Just not sure how expensive that would be. Thanks for any suggestions you may have.
