It can't be easy getting dressed for a public grilling but we think actress Sienna Miller got it right with this ensemble.
A sombre black, full skirted coat with black opaque tights and round-toed Louboutin pumps strikes the right note of seriousness.

At this time of year it can be hard to like what you see in the mirror, so what better than a jumper that will cheer you up every time you catch sight of your reflection?

We actually preferred it to Kate's wedding dress and were we to get married again would definitely consider it for the walk up the aisle and now we can because the Pippa Middleton's Alexander McQueen bridesmaid gown is now available to us mere mortals.
Well almost.
