My family and I are moving to Bolivia in August, and I was wondering if any of you might be able to help me clothes and the weather. Are any of you from there? Or does anybody have clothing recommendations?

I live in Texas :) My family wanted an Adventure, and we will also be doing missionary work while down there :)

I am definitely looking forward to seeing all the traditional clothing, however I wasn't sure if there were things I should invest in while here, like a nice pair of boots, that would be useful yet hard to come by down there, especially for girls with big feet :)

That is so awesome! My family is really likes yours and we travel all around to countries in Africa, Europe, and Asia. It has absolutely helped me become who I am and shaped who I am becoming. I wish you all the best in your new home! Hopefully you'll have WiFi there and can stay on Beautylish!
As for clothing, it depends what time of year you'll be there. The summers are ridiculously humid and hot. For these times I would bring light, cotton sundresses, lots of shorts, tank tops, and graphic tees. I totally agree with Jacqlyn's idea on the long skirts! They are super comfortable, easy to work in, and still super stylish. For the rest of the year it's typically hot but gets rainy and cold in winter (40-60 F). For this I'd have some jeans, long sleeves, sweatshirts, jackets, and lots of layers. And if you are working, a trusty pair of boots is a complete must. I would also have a good pair of flip flops and sneakers.
Once again, I hope you have an amazing experience and learn a ton 🌎💥💋

Thank you Cami :) Our plan is to stay indefinitely, so we would have to be prepared for it all. And thank you for all the clothing advice! It is all super helpful :) And the funny thing is, we will have better wifi there than we currently have lol I don't know what I'd do without beautylish and all you amazing ladies :)
