14 Dresses + Skirts to Wear to Work All Summer
Just because you’re going to work doesn’t mean that you have to dress like Pam during the first few seasons of The Office (sorry, Beesly!). There are so many options out there for 9-to-5 wear, especially during a fashion season as versatile as summer… they just have to be explored! From bright scuba skirts to fun printed dresses, here are 14 easy ways to attain style maven status at work.
1. Shirt Dress in White ($74): Shirt dresses are pretty much the first thing we think of when we hear “work clothes.” This white dress is a valuable wardrobe staple, since it can be styled pretty much any way you want.
2. Quilted Floral Pencil Skirt ($88): This floral pencil skirt is officially one of our most favorite quilted things in the entire world. It looks formal enough to wear to work, but could easily be dressed down for the weekend.
3. Curve Midi Skirt in Scuba ($67): In our minds, summer equals fun and playful colors like this one. We love the combo of this skirt and a longer crop top, though you could basically pair it with any blouse out there.
4. Terry Stripe Dress ($98): Summer workwear tends to be a little more casual, so this striped dress’ll definitely work. Nautical fashions are always in.
5. Yellow Shift Dress ($96): A simple dress paired with a stand out shade of yellow? This’ll definitely become your go-to.
6. Wiggle Dress in Pastel Floral Print ($96): Not only is this floral dress quite stylish, but it’s also flattering for most figures. We love it!
7. Sleeveless Shirt Dress in Jade ($15): We really can’t stress the value of shirt dresses enough. And check out how affordable this one is!
8. Midi Pencil Skirt ($30): Head to work, Mad Menstyle. Midi pencil skirts may have been popular in the ’50s, but the trend has definitely been revived for the modern-day woman.
9. Wrap Pencil Dress in Crepe ($67): Along with this dress, all you need to look like the boss of the office are some earrings and a gold bracelet. Unless you already are the boss, in which case — you go, girl!
9. Curve Pencil Skirt With Contrast Panels ($39): We just can’t get enough of these midi pencil skirts. This one’s got some killer contrast panels.
10. Chiffon Appliqué Dress ($60): LBDs can absolutely be worn to work. Never believe anyone who says otherwise.
11. Denim Swing Dress With Crochet Collar ($35): This denim dress is effortless perfection. Casual Fridays, here we come!
12. Polka Dot Skirt ($25): It’s time to break out the polka dots, ladies! This timeless whimsical print is even more popular than usual this year, and we’re quite happy about it.
13. Pencil Dress in Spot With Waterfall Skirt ($86): This dress looks oh-so amazing with those bright red heels. The entire outfit is very Allie from The Notebook.
14. Curve Midi Dress in Check Print ($86): If you’ve only got ten minutes to get ready, all you gotta do is grab this dress and slip on those heels. Done! Bold prints like this really don’t need any accessories.
