Reader Mail

I got the following question from a reader:

Dear Shoegal,
I'm going to a wedding in November but all my dresses are fairly summery, and I can't afford a new one. How can I accessorize/layer in a classy but effective way so I don't freeze to my champagne flute?!

Dear Chilly of Leeds
I would suggest adding tights and either a long sleeve top underneath the dress or a cardigan or jacket over the top. Depending what the dress looks like, you could either go for grey or black additions, or alternatively, pick out one colour from the dress and use that – if it has any darker colours in it such as purple or dark green then these would be ideal additions to ‘winterise’ it. Then add some jewellery, heels and a smart coat and you will be all set.
