As much as I try to fight against it, I think it’s time to admit the British summer just isn’t that sunny. Apart from a few warm days, the majority of the time, let’s face it, it’s pretty cold. When you are at a summer barbeque, and it’s warm in the day, most times by the evening time it gets quite chilly.
So, the key to dressing for the British Summer is layering! Layer your outfits, so you can take off when you are warm and add when it gets nippy. Here are three outfit choices which can be taken from day to night, and perfect for the hot to cold weather…
