The best way is to mix and match to find the perfect look that suits you.

When it comes to outdoor hobbies like shooting, it's important to prepare correctly. This means having the right country clothing to protect you from the weather conditions and rigours of the activity, but also looking the part in the process. Quality is the key, but what specific items will you need? Here are 10 clothing items for ladies that love to shoot.

1. It may not be too cold right now, but come the autumn and winter, keeping warm will be a more pressing concern. That's why so many shooters opt for a tweed shooting jacket. Fully functional, practical and also very stylish, the tweed shooting jacket is made with bracing weather in mind, so you remain comfortable and warm while enjoying shooting.

2. If tweed isn't really to your tastes, you may prefer a quilt jacket. With fleeced lining and inner collar, this type of jacket can look stylish whilst also providing you with the warmth you'll need on cold winter days.

3. However, if you are opting for tweed, an additional country clothing accessory you may wish to consider could be the tweed waistcoat. Look for one that's light in weight and made by a leading brand such Babour or Seeland. There are different styles to choose from, so you can make sure the one you go for has the style and comfort you desire.

4. Alternatively, if you want something with a little more insulation and padding, a fashionable gilet may be ideal. There are many styles and colours to choose from and most feature button-down pockets that could come in very handy.

5. Shooters, both male and female are known for their hats. As well as complementing their ensemble, they're also vital for helping to keep the heat in on cold, wintery days.

6. It will also be important to make sure you have a durable pair of breeks that are lightweight, washable, waterproof and warm. These will protect you from the conditions you're likely to encounter.

7. If the weather is extremely cold, you may decide to opt for an extra layer under your quilt or tweed shooting jacket. The zipped fleece is a great option, helping to keep the warmth in while also offering plenty of comfort. In milder temperatures, the fleece may even operate as a stylist top layer.

8. Shooting is obviously an activity that requires you to use your hands a lot. For that reason, protecting them should be an important consideration. A good quality pair of gloves will be needed, with leather often the preferred choice. They'll also offer some additional style to compliment your outfit.

9. Most people choose to wear a shirt underneath their fleece or waistcoat and there are a wide range of colours and styles to suit your tastes. These are available from most good country clothing specialists.

10. Finally, you need to protect your footwear. A good pair of wellingtons will help you to keep your feet warm and dry, while offering you plenty of comfort - something you'll definitely need for a full day of shooting.
