The biggest mistake women make in wardrobe-planning is buying oddments without any relation to a a central scheme

HEN you're choosing your autumn and winter outfit, stick to essentials. Don't be led away oddments into buying ill-considered

("Such a lovely colour, and only 6/11") without making sure that they will fit in with your colour schemes.

And when you are budgeting out what you have to spend, get the best you can afford, even if you have to have less variety. Good clothes apeak for themselves... and their wearers,

Treat yourself to a dress that fits you well and is made in good material, ind you will wear it for years

and you will always feel better

in it than in others bought cheaply merely for the sake of the colour or a bit of a change.
