Hot weather and office dress codes don’t always mix, but that doesn’t mean your summer work wardrobe has to feel like a struggle. You want clothes that feel breathable, but still look sharp enough for the office. Lightweight fabrics like cotton poplin and linen are a smart place to start, especially when cut in easy, drapey shapes. A relaxed co-ord, a structured shirt dress, or a loose linen set can move with you from morning meetings to post-work plans. Keep accessories simple but elevated—flat sandals, a raffia tote, maybe a pair of oversized sunglasses. Even when half the office is OOO, you’ll still look pulled together without trying too hard. It’s less about sticking to a dress code and more about choosing clothes that work with the heat, not against it.
Scroll on for effortless outfit ideas that bring ease, structure, and style to your 9-to-5 summer lineup.
