As the summer heat rolls in, it’s time to update your office wardrobe with stylish and comfortable outfits that will keep you looking professional and cool. From lightweight blouses to tailored trousers, there are plenty of options to keep you polished and confident during those long workdays. I personally love timeless neutrals for a more classic look – but vibrant patterns and colors can work too. The key to nailing chic office style in the summer is to choose breathable fabrics that will keep you comfortable all day long. Whether you’ll be at a desk or attending virtual meetings, scroll ahead for a few looks that’ll ensure you’re always dressed for success.

You can also achieve an on-trend summer work look by styling a maxi dress with an oversized blazer.

Finish off the outfit with a sleek pair of pumps and you’re set for any activity from day to night.
