Simple & Bright Summer Office Style
It’s practically a scientific fact that people are busier in the summer! Some countries take entire summer-long holidays, but here in America we maintain our ‘work hard, play hard’ philosophy. When it comes to the summer, most people still show up to work- or at least work from home- but are more likely to head to after-hour activities rather than sprinting home. That could mean backyard BBQ’s, dining on a restaurant’s patio, walks on the beach; any excuse to enjoy the beautiful outdoors!
Getting yourself ‘office ready’ isn’t always easy, especially when you’re exhausted from all of this action. I try to keep my summer office look simple so I can maintain my ‘girl on the go’ lifestyle!
From the office to the store to a social outing; keeping it versatile is key when you’re ‘on the go!’ This look is bright and fun for the warm weather, but really simple to put together. This is a great office blouse because although it’s sleeveless, the strap is very thick. It’s light and airy for the summer, but still has enough coverage to work for the office. It’s kind of casual so I paired it with a midi skirt, which can easily doll up a look in an instant! It’s always a great go-to option!

Those pumps are the perfect nude for your skin tone. I love the pink and navy combo together. I think the extra light tricks me into thinking I have more time in the summer nights!

Love the navy and pink together! It looks great. Summer fashion in the office is a lot of fun and always feels like we have more freedom to play around with things than in the winter. Mainly because we don't enjoy being cold.
