We live in uncertain times, but one thing you can bank on at this time of year is, the weather is gonna get colder. However, at the moment, we are in that strange period, where essentially the weather is unpredictable to say the least, the start of the day can be freezing cold and typical of a crisp Autumnal day. Then come mid morning bright sunshine and relatively warm when in the direct sunlight.
So it throws up all those sartorial questions of what to wear ? Within the fashion industry we call these periods transitional. It is a difficult period for guys where you can find yourself either freezing cold, as you have underplayed the what to wear card or even worse when we over play it and overestimate and end up a sweaty mess. Either of these two scenarios can be a great sources of embarrassment for us particularly if we are on our way to a business meeting, date, even meeting some mates.
