The clothes Julia Roberts wears in the film, although slightly fancier than I might don on travel adventure like Elizabeth Gilbert’s, do stay pretty practical throughout. The garments are loose-fitting, natural-fiber pieces which Julia makes look great — and they’re all definitely the kind of clothes you can see rolled up in suitcase, to be shaken out for a delicious itinerary of self discovery and romantic international rendezvous. Take a look and check out our finds — all under $75 — that will help you recreate a few of Julia’s looks from the movie. Julia Roberts in Italy Get the look (above): Julia’s simple chambray dress is perfect for a walk around Rome’s cobblestone streets. We’ve chosen a 100% cotton denim dress with a similar look and paired it with a floppy straw fedora and a brown gladiator sandal. I can almost taste the cappuccino and Italian pastries a few paces away.

Get the look: This is probably my favorite fashion look of the film — a pretty brush-stroked dress (hello, waistline!) with a casual and versatile canvas jacket over top makes this look easy and breezy. We’ve picked out a similar cargo jacket and cotton/nylon sundress in a similar color palette.

Get the look: Julia is sporting a sweet textured blouse in India, which she pairs with a magenta tank and an emerald green cardigan. Gorgeously colorful. Toss it all on with jeans or a flowy skirt. The pintucked linen A-line shirt below in a soft orange zinnia has the same carefree appeal when paired with a long, vintage-style cardigan and a bright magenta tank top.

Get the look: Loving the textures of this look: the embroidered linen with the mustard tie dye cardigan and the striped multicolor woven bag. Who knows where they got that wonderful cardy, but we’ve pulled together a look that matches in texture and autumnal golden and natural hues.
