What to Wear? Oh dear.

You are setting your clothes aside this week, right?

Next week you'll be doing your "practice" packing, right?
And you know that layers will give you many options, right?

Here is some helpful advice: Click here for the Central London Tourist advice

I am sharing this blogger's thoughts...I do agree with her!
"Some rules for what to wear in London will apply, depending on where you will be visiting.

If you are planning to go the the Theatre check first with the venue if they have a dress code.
Usually there is no formal dress code but they do advise smart casual. 

I always know what to wear in London theatres now because I have been so many times.
Sometimes I will wear a nice top, with black trousers and some nice shoes. Usually flat shoes that are smart and comfortable.
I would never go 'over the top' and wear dresses and heels etc. I would probably look out of place, unless it was an opening night.
I personally wouldn't wear trainers (sneakers/tennis shoes) and I would advise you don't take the chance.
Sometimes, for some performances this may be frowned upon or even not allowed.
Dress in a smart/casual manner and make sure you will be comfortable enough to sit in your outfit for a couple of hours.  
Most theatres will not have air-conditioning either, so if it is really hot keep that in mind, or bring something to keep off any chilly drafts in cooler weather. "

"If you are wondering what to wear in London restaurants, I would always says check with them first.
If you are not sure where you will be going and so are not sure what to wear in London restaurants, then make sure you come prepared.
Not all restaurants will require you to dress a certain way, it really depends on which ones you will be going to.
Bring smart clothes and shoes if you think there is a possibility you will be going for afternoon tea or visiting a classy hotel or restaurant."

NOTE: We are staying in a "classy hotel" and we are having the Royal Tea at Rubens Hotel on Friday afternoon 3pm.
