Q What do I wear to a morning wedding, for instance, what colours are best?

A Unless the invitation states formal attire, a knee-length or mid-calf flowing dress would be appropriate, sleeveless or with straps if you prefer. Accessorise with fine jewellery, strappy sandals with a heel, soft makeup, well-groomed hair and nails. Choice of colour depends on your personal taste, of course, but soft or pastel hues are best.

Q What is the correct thing to do if you receive a cellphone call during a movie?

A Before the movie begins there is usually a reminder to turn off cellphones, however people tend to put them on silent or vibrate in case of emergencies. If you must answer it, immediately leave your seat and head to the cinema lobby so as not to disturb people in the cinema.

Q I like to chew gum, is there any right way?

A Chewing gum never looks classy, but some people need to chew gum to help with a smoking habit. The best rule is to chew with your mouth closed at all times. And make sure you dispose of the gum properly - wrap it in paper and throw it into a trash bin.
