What to wear to the office in the summer?

The office in the summer can be freezing from air-conditioning or too hot. What to wear to the office in the summer can be a problem. You want to be comfortable in hot weather getting to your office. When you arrive at the office you want to be comfortable whether it’s too hot or too cold.

For warm temps, clothes that are looser (not baggy) in natural fabrics are cool and more comfortable than synthetic fabrics.

Dresses or tops with lower armhole sleeves are cooler than fitted sleeves. 3/4 length sleeves keep your arms covered but are more comfortable than long sleeves.

If the dress code in your office requires a suit go for cotton, linen or natural fiber blends. Pair natural fiber comfortable style slacks with a jacket or vest and a simple shirt.

Shirtwaist dresses in cotton or jersey are other options. Keep a jacket or sweater in your office for cool temps.
