Tweed is timeless. The trick to keeping it glamorous is to go for flattering, fitted silhouettes and experiment with contrasting complementary patterns and colours.

Scents and sensibility
Likewise, a new bottle of perfume is always guaranteed to surprise and delight on Christmas Day. Particularly if it’s from niche British perfumier Miller Harris.
