Summer Office Style – Look Cool, Keep Cool

Summer Office Style – Look Cool, Keep Cool

Summer is here and while we wish we could waft languidly through the hot season, all kaftans and cocktails, there’s a little thing called ‘work’ standing in our way. Holding out for your holiday seems like an impossible task when every day is beach weather in your hometown.

To make the 9-5 a little more bearable, we’ve compiled some key petite office style looks for easy breezy chic. Whether you’re in the creative sector or corporate domain, we have a seasonal outfit that works. Think punchy colours and lightweight fabrics.

Opt for simple shift dresses that will see you through from day to night. Forgo your tired winter pumps and jazz things up with some statement shoes. A large tote bag can house all your work essentials (as well as bikini and towel for that after work dip!) Make the most of your wardrobe to make the most of the weather.
