Summer Wear To Work

Summer work
wear that’s essentially lightweight and soothing, doesn’t have to be
pale and boring. Here is a guide on what to wear to work when it’s hot, and look your best,
while surviving the hot flashes, chocking traffic jams, and occupational
hazards.

Lightweight, Breathable
Fabrics

The ideal summer
office wear for men or women is recommended to be cotton and linen that
helps your skin to breathe. This applies to both summer office outfits, and inner wears. These fabrics
are not only comfortable to wear, but also easy to launder, as a perfect feed
for the summer laze. There are other variants of this kind of material, such as
cotton-polyester blends, rayon, chambray, khadi, lawn cloth, and lace.

Ideal Summer Colors That
Sooth Your Mood

There is a thing called “Color Therapy” that holistically enhances
ones mood and energy. Just because you are dressing up for the summer, it doesn’t
mean you should rule out dark or vibrant colors and stick to whites and pales
only. It’s all about contrast, and mixing and matching the colors in a way that
lifts your mood and makes you feel good and energetic, yet is appropriate as a work
wear, if not strictly formal wear. It’s best to avoid dark on dark in this
season, light and dark contrast on the other hand is a perfect fit.

Tops

Summers make us lazy. You got to have a white shirt, or a light
pastel shade. For men, dress shirts with button down collars or spread collars,
are classic and comforting. You can give the neckties a break unless you have
to wear them, and allow some ventilation. For women, relaxed and fluid to wears
are the thing to have. With soft spread collar shirts, or sleeveless blouses,
that’s simple and sophisticated. You can also wear jersey tops and t-shirts to
work, as perfect summer
business casual women’s clothing. We will recommend giving sheers and
see-through tops a miss. If you HAVE TO wear them, then team it up with a vest instead
of strappy camisole. Strappy, backless and cold shoulder top wears are
conventionally meant for work wear, but if you got to break the rules, then
give it the appropriation of proper innerwear.

Trousers

Avoid something too tight. For regular fit dress trousers or
chinos are the perfect bet, khaki trousers and even jeans are perfect for
Fridays. Women can pull off flowing palazzo or wide legged trousers at ease.

Dresses and Skirts

Go
for mid length, effortless flared falls for dresses and skirts. It’s not that
shorts are prohibited at a workplace, especially since is an in thing. But
dressing formally only adds to your grace at the work front.

Shoes That Show Off Your Feet

Open toes are meant for summers, and today’s workplaces
largely allow them. Adorn your feet pampering pedicure to match the sandals. Ditch
stilettos or thin heels for platforms. Commuting in summers can be exhaustive,
especially if you need to walk, drive or take the subway, it is likely to give
your calf a serious ache and discomfort after a point of time. So until and
unless you are driven to office, choose shoes with good arch support.

Undergarments

Choose cotton and lace undergarments, over synthetic
materials. If you should make an investment for the summer season,
undergarments should be your first criteria. It’s the comfort that you feel
inside, that is the most important.
