No need to look drab because you want to keep warm this winter. Here’s how to achieve that simple, but sexy, country-girl look and be snug, as well. Wear lots and lots of layers of clothes in prints and plains and add a frilly summer petticoat to give a touch of spice. It’s a fabulous way of wearing your summer clothes, too — and so save on your budget. Add a polo neck to a printed summer skirt and top the lot with a thin, plain pinny. See? It’s easy . . . it’s warm . . . and makes your whole wardrobe go a very long way . . .

19 AND airJamaica GO DOWN -TOWN

Down-town Mo Bay is a riot of colour. Houses are made of wood and painted red, blue, green or yellow. There’s a different colour at every step, so a walk down any street is quite an experience. Then there’s the soul music which blasts out of every shop, so you’ve got to look cool. Hence our choice of fun clothes to catch the eye even with all that competition.
