Stretch Your Shoes a Bit
We know it’s tempting to sprint out of the store wearing your brand-new shoes but for the sake of your feet, don’t. Have them stretched by your shoe repair shop or stretch them yourself with inserts or thick socks. Blisters are not worth the instant gratification you get from wearing them straight away.

Beware of Vanity SizingNot only are XS through XL not to be trusted but actual waist sizes can differ from brand to brand too. Given that, always try on two sizes to make sure you’re getting the perfect fit. If you’re buying online, read the item description and look to the exact measurements for clues on what to go with.
Buy Breathable FabricsNatural fiber fabrics like cotton and wool allow moisture to escape while synthetics like polyester and acetate do not. In fact, the stifling quality of synthetic fabrics will make you sweat and stink even more. In other words, think twice before buying all your clothes at high-street stores. I will do you better, don't shop at high-street stores?
Always Dress in LayersDressing in layers pretty much guarantees comfort. From your freezing-as-hell office to the sweaty, overcrowded bar you frequent after work, an outfit with options will keep you comfortable no matter what life throws your way. I have now been sharing tips on how to layer because it is fun to write those posts. 

Invest in Staying-In ClothesFrom cashmere socks and blankets to proper pajamas, spending a couple of bucks on luxurious downtime clothes will make changing after work a euphoric experience and safeguard you against a variety of uncomfortable travel scenarios. Plus, you never know who will drop by—might as well look your best.
