Braving the shops in the run up to Christmas, takes precise military planning. You can make the experience as pleasant as possible, through the careful selection, of the right outfit.
Flat shoes are a must have and as tempting as it may be to pile on thick socks to block out the cold, with a cosy pair of boots, remember that shopping centers can be hot and humid at the best of times, let alone during the run up to Christmas.

Bulky, heavy outdoor clothing is best left in the car. Alternatively, why not let him do the carrying?
