Party Power... Or Sheer Madness !!

Getting dressed up for social events, having good facials etc or looking gorgeous (or handsome for Men) is fine.
However, what I fail to understand and especially for many womenfolks is as to how they could come in a total summer dress on Social events especially marriages when it is in an open area plus chilly cold winds are blowing making being in open a tough task.
Sometimes during such times, one feels cold even in a single sweater.
Some say that they get so engrossed in the party mood, that they forget the cold.
Yet I see it as pure madness.
One of my maternal aunt once went to a marriage in just summer dress and told that afterwards, she fell sick and got fever as well.
So I think one needs to be careful. Any thoughts?

Some women do bring trendy but warm Shawls, others even forget or neglect that. Yet at times, some Men too dress in lesser layers than needed. In fact, I too miscalculated and did not had a Jacket or Coat but now I learnt my lesson.

However, a fashion that can lead to illness is not good.

Hmmm... I think, that people need to know their own body and how it would react in the situation.
I like cold much more than I like heat. (I got lost in the desert when I was in my early twenties. The doctors said I burned out my body's ability to tell heat and cold.) In hot weather, I start feeling sick if I have to be outside for very long. I can go out in snow and cold without feeling cold for long periods of time, even without a sweater or jacket.
Pretty and I went shopping this morning. It was 10C outside. I went in shirt sleeves only. She wore a jacket and told me that just looking at me in the chilly weather was making her cold.

Things vary from person to person. I remember about one of my brothers' friend who used to roam in just a coat over a shirt unbuttoned even in extreme cold when we were dressed in layers of clothes.

Yes a wise thing to do. Do you carry a shawl to such cold weather marriages?

I too often think about that. They say for women fashion is inversely proportional to weather.
But I want my fashion to be functional too. Not a wise thing to go for fashion and fall sick. Not a good deal

Yes getting sick is not an option. One can be well dressed even with warm clothes.

Many people want to look dressed up regardless of the weather. They want to show off their new duds! Happy New Year!
