The temptation to dress in shorts and t-shirts with flip-flops is strong. Which is cool for casual days at the beach or in your back yard – but what about when you go out to meet people?
Ladies and gentlemen – the rise in temperature is no excuse to let down your sartorial standards!
Instead of using the summer heat as an excuse to relax your dress code – see it as an opportunity to incorporate colour, new fabrics and styles into your wardrobe.
Not easy, but will pay back!
