How can I avoid looking like a tourist from the US when I go to Madrid?


Travel Info
I'm going to Madrid in January and I'd like to blend in a bit. I mean, I'm sure it will be incredibly obvious that I'm not from there when I open my mouth and they hear me speak (I speak Spanish, but certainly not like a native speaker; and while my accent is good, it's definitely not a Spanish accent), I just don't want to attract too much attention, good or bad.

What kinds of things would a young, urban, female Spaniard do/wear/say/etc?

I've been told to dress fashionably (no jeans and T-shirts) and not wear tennis shoes, because that's a dead giveaway that I'm from the US. What else should I know?

Gracias por los consejos.
