Many of us are concerned with trapping our feet in sneakers, boots or any covered footwear, simply because it already is so hot on the outside. Wearing sandals is the best way to bring your style level to another notch, especially these strappy sandals, instead of your usual slippers. Thick or thin, these strappy sandals will keep your dressy in this heat.

For those of you with long hair, keep them away for your neck area to cool yourself down. Instead of your usual bun, wrap a bandana around your head, giving your hairdo an extra edge, while channelling the pin-up girl look at the same time. Gentlemen, style your hair with some heat-withstanding pomade and you can look hot, without feeling hot.

Colours is one of the biggest determining factors when it comes to choosing the right clothes to put on. That said, it still depends on the type of fabrics you are wearing to ensure minimal perspiration.
