Yes, we know. January is one of the most difficult months in the calendar, both weather-wise and all-round-glumness wise. But that doesn’t mean it automatically has to be something to grit your teeth through when it comes to your wardrobe. Though it seems everyone’s thoughts immediately turn to health and fitness at this time of year, that is not the only way to reset your attitude for 2020. Indeed, you may find that tackling your sartorial wellness will also reap dividends. So, why not pep things up a little bit? Yes, rather than fading into the grim, grey background with the dark, funereal ensembles we associate with the heart of winter, opt for something colourful that stands out and makes you smile.

So, make the most of them and set your style barometer to “positive” and “upbeat” – goodness knows we all need it. Here are some tips to get you started.
