If you have long hair, wear it up.

However tempting it may be to stand in the sun, stay in the shade. Once you get hot it is harder to cool down.

Make a fan part of your outfit. There are so many beautiful fans on the market you will get one to match your outfit.

Pack a little spritz in your handbag, they are super refreshing and a great way to keep cool.

Powdered make-up has more chance of staying put in the heat than liquid make-up.

And pack an umbrella – this is the UK afterall!!!
