What to Wear to Work in Summer

Office outfits inspired by the holiday destinations we can only dream about

Forget holiday FOMO and make your 9-5 more fun with office appropriate outfits that have a summer feel – you won’t even realise you’re still at work.

If you’ve got an important meeting but your stacks of manila folders are looking more like a tropical mirage wear…

... a leafy green dress. Layer a white collared blouse underneath or a tailored blazer on top to make it a little more polished, and finish with transparent pumps because it’s the closest you can get to being barefoot.

If you’re sitting stationary on a swivel chair at work but you wish you were being whisked away to Cuba wear…

... a summer blazer in peach linen with matching shorts if you can get away with it at work, or wide-leg trousers if you can’t. Add fruity earrings and a printed scarf to your hair for extra Havana flavour.

If your office is a literal ice box and it’d actually be warmer in Japan right now wear…

... a kimono jumpsuit with wide sleeves. Style with ankle boots and add a knit jumper if temperatures continue to drop.

If you’re trying to speed through your to-do list so you can take a quick trip to Maggie Island on the weekend wear…

... white linen co-ords. Matching separates are our favourite wardrobe investments because you can get more looks from the one outfit. Swap your usual leather tote for a basket bag that’s big enough to hold your laptop and other work essentials.

If you’re working summer hours and you’re heading out for a post-work swim as soon as the clock ticks over wear…

... your swimsuit under a wrap dress so you can hit the waves faster than your email provider can send your “out of office” auto reply. Style with chic leather mules so you don’t have to swap them out when you’re going from boardroom to beach to bar.

If you’ve been staring at the same document for hours and find yourself daydreaming about long walks on the beach with the sand between your toes wear…

... billowy linen-blend pants and a button-up top to match. Style with a snakeskin leather bag and pumps to make it more office appropriate, then get yourself to the nearest beach ASAP.
