Things are Warming Up at the Office

The weather slowly but surely creeping its way up from tolerably warm to just plain ole H O T. Which for me means that it gets more and more difficult to want to be dressed in any style that remotely resembles professional.

So to try to beat the heat, I lean towards natural fabrics, sleeveless tops that aren't too bare for the office and stretchy printed knits (i.e., sweat camouflage - yeah, sorry). Here are a couple of ideas for how I'll be dressing for work as the temps continue to rise:

Blouse: Maeve by Anthropologie luca tie-neck (similar navy blouses / similar tie-neck blouses)
Skirt: Ann Taylor (similar striped skirts)
Earrings: J.Crew fiery crystal (similar red earrings)
Shoes: c/o Farylrobin via Anthropologie (similar red sandals)

Dress: Old Navy (similar floral dresses)
Bracelet: J.Crew (similar gold cuffs)

Top: J.Crew factory gingham classic boy fit (similar gingham shirts)
