As the mercury rises it's time to update your wardrobe
Here’s how to rule the office – and keep cool this summer.
Dressing up for work can be a bit tricky. You don’t want to be too casual or overdressed. And then what do you do when summer comes along and heats things up?
With the weather getting hotter, your work wardrobe is going to need an overhaul, which may not be the best news because you can’t exactly wear a crop top and short shorts to the office (but if you can get away with that, great).
We surfed Zando and found a few amazing items for your work wardrobe to look absolutely fabulous while keeping cool this summer.
A shirt dress with a pair of elegant pumps makes for an effortless, no-fail outfit combo that will carry you through work the whole summer. Wear with flats or court heels.
