How to Dress Between the Seasons

The UK has a lot of plus points, but its weather isn’t one of them. As the seasons change, the weather can be a bit hit and miss, making it difficult to know what to wear.

Here, we’ll look at some of the best ways to dress between the seasons so no matter what the weather, you’re well prepared.

Invest in a warm, trendy jacket

One of the most important things you need in order to dress between the seasons is a nice warm jacket. The great thing about jackets is they can easily be taken off and carried around if it gets too warm.

There are a lot of different styles of jackets out there. A couple of popular options include a leather or a denim jacket. These are ideal to layer with other clothing and they will stay in fashion for years to come. 

Focus on layers

The key to dressing between the seasons is to focus on layers. That way, if you get too hot you can easily take a layer off. If you get too cold, put on additional layers. This is the most effective way to dress between the seasons. 

If you’re unsure how to layer clothing for a stylish look, you’ll find lots of advice online. For example, did you know you could layer a long-sleeve top over a summer dress? The layered look can provide warmth as well as style.

Carry a scarf with you

As the weather starts to turn colder, it’s a good idea to carry around a scarf. This will help you to protect your neck from the cold if it suddenly becomes gusty. 

There are a lot of light material scarves out there you can invest in which are perfect for the changing seasons. If you invest in an oversized scarf, you could also wrap it over your head if it starts to rain unexpectedly. 

Skirts

Although it’s tempting to switch exclusively to trousers when the weather gets colder, a skirt can make an excellent between season item. You’ll find long women’s skirts are perfect for the changing weather. They provide just enough warmth to keep the legs comfortable and some even feature thermal qualities.

These are just some of the best ways to dress between the seasons. The weather may be unpredictable right now, but that doesn’t mean you can’t be prepared. Focus on clothing that layers so you can adjust your outfit as the weather changes. 

What to Pack for Your Next Vacation?

The whole idea of spending a few days away from work, from stress and from the daily routine sounds exciting. On an average, people spend $1,979 on summer vacations. Now that you’ve already spent so much, you wouldn’t want to go overboard with shopping only to realise later that you cannot pack even half the items. Styling experts at Bag Heaven, a reputed manufacturer of LV Replica Purses, say that it is possible to spend less and still choose quality products.

Here is the ultimate guide for your vacation shopping and packing. With this list, you’ll control splurging and save more.

Do Your Homework

The first step to buying and packing should be to know about the destination you’ll be visiting, including its weather, the culture and the activities planned. While it seems easy to pack whatever you find first in your closet, that floral maxi dress might not be best suited for horse-back riding or if it will be raining too heavily! Be it a party that you’re planning to attend or a jungle safari, every activity demands that appropriate outfit and being prepared for it is definitely the best bet!

Dress Up or Dress Down

It’s easy to get tempted and pack seven different outfits for five days. You never know what you’ll need! But doing so will make your baggage too bulky to lug around. The smart and easy way to pack less is to wear an outfit more than once. It doesn’t mean you will look the same because you can accessorise differently. Adding a belt or a bag can completely change the look of the outfit, especially if the accessories are replicas of designer brands at extremely low costs. You can pick out cheap Louis Vuitton bags and purses to look chic. You can easily get designer Louis Vuitton replicas at wholesale handbag prices and even LV wallets and belts on sale.

Don’t Forget Those Shoes

Just like clothes, shoes must be selected according to the weather and itinerary. You don’t want to wear heels for bowling or to the beach, right? In fact, shoes complete the look. Choosing versatile shoes that go with multiple outfits will save a lot of extra luggage. Creating a look based on your most comfortable footwear can be a better and easier way to dress up, especially if you know you’re going to walk a lot.

Consider the “What Ifs”

What if it rains? What if it gets colder at night? What if you add a last-minute dinner date to the itinerary? These “what ifs” are many and sometimes inevitable. It’s a good idea to pack an extra wrap, slightly comfy shoes (just in case those newly bought ones give your blisters), an extra belt or a cardigan to zhuzh up any dress. Considering these uncertain circumstances will help a lot in planning ahead of the vacation.

Do not shy away from repeating or mixing and matching the different pieces to create the look you want. Packing tops that match all bottoms will increase your options. Layering is another tip that comes in handy when trying to figure out what to wear. And, even if everything else fails, your designer Louis Vuitton replicas will come to the rescue.

Self-Maintenance Jobs You Can Do at Home

With the rules of what we can and cannot do constantly changing, it isn’t a bad idea for you to learn some beauty treatments you can do from home. That way you don’t have to bat an eyelid if your usual salons are shut – you can do it yourself until they open up again. What are some simple self-maintenance jobs you can try at home?

Manicure

Getting your nails done can make a world of difference to your confidence. Maybe you’re already a dab hand at giving yourself a manicure, or perhaps your painting technique still needs some work. Either way, learning to do your own nails can be a fun way to spend some at home. You can get creative and use different nail art kits. If you need a reminder of how to give yourself a manicure, look no further than right here. 

Hair Styles 

You’re probably aware of the failed lockdown haircuts. Cutting your own hair can be an incredibly daunting task. Maybe you feel up to the challenge and are happy to give it a go. Or perhaps you’d rather leave your hair in the hands of a professional. How about trying a happy in-between? You could experiment with new styles you’ve never tried before, or learn some ways of braiding your locks. If you’re feeling bold, you could dye your hair a different colour. 

Face Massage

This is a particularly easy treatment you can perform on yourself. You can apply a hydrating serum and then massage around your eyes in circular motions. You should also apply pressure to your brow area, jawline, and cheekbones. Giving yourself a facial massage is such a simple way to make yourself feel better. You can use the time to unwind from the day, plus your skin will thank you too. 

Beauty Masks 

Whether you want to make a mask for your hair or your face, you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how many beauty products are hiding in your fridge. You can create masks for practically all of your pampering needs. From helping your hair get back its shine to exfoliating your skin. Beauty masks give you a chance to get creative and you can have fun trying out your own recipes as well.

During these difficult times, it’s so important for you to look after yourself. You’ll be amazed at how much better you’ll feel after a pamper session. What’s a beauty treatment you’d like to try?
