10 Cool Work Outfits For This Summer

The world is your catwalk – even the world of work. Long past are the days of thick jumpers, thick coats and matching scarves. Now the sun’s out, the jumpers are packed away in your wardrobe and you’ve got the chance to show to your colleagues just how adventurous your style can be. Here are 10 cool work outfits to wow your work friends and brighten up the office.

1. Whole body colour

In a sea of lights and darks, stand out from the crowd by going for a single colour. This no-nonsense look can be achieved by pairing your trousers and blouses, or a long dress if you really want to show off. To look the most professional, avoid rich, bright colours and stick calmer tones such as white and black, but for more casual settings the whole palette is yours. Pair with matching shoes or go for a neutral colour.

2. Light top, light jacket

Embody that summery feeling by keeping your outfit light in colour. This is a tried and tested look, but it can look fresh if done well. Combine a thin, light-coloured jacket with a low neckline top to keep cool in the heat.

3. Show off the belt

Big buckles on belts have come back in a big way recently, but that doesn’t mean they’re for casual fashion only. Make an impact in the office and elevate a blouse and trouser combo by tucking in your blouse and showing off your buckle, or give your dress a much-needed centrepiece with a thick belt and buckle. Smart and stunning.

4. Deep colours

White blouses are the default look for work wear but don’t limit yourself. Show your creativity and your individuality by leaving the white blouses behind. Choose deep, dark colours and contrast with lighter colours, or keep the palette dark and go for a bolder monotone look. Don’t forget to dress in light materials to keep cool in the summer and look cool, too.

5. Elegant dresses

Swap the blouse and trouser combo with long dresses that cover enough and show off too. Monotone dresses are always popular but why not wear a simple pattern to shine in the office?

6. Flared fashion

Show them who wears the trousers in this business! Flared trousers can be a great way to stay cool in the summer months, and offer an opportunity to display your bolder side.

7. Eye-catching skirts

Just like trousers, skirts can be the unlikely hero of your whole outfit. Keeping your legs free and cool in the summer, they might just be the ultimate addition your work wardrobe needed.

8. Tight trousers

No matter what the work day may throw at you, make sure you’re ready to go with the trousers to get you there. Pinstripe trousers can complement your top or be the showstoppers of the outfit themselves!

9. Classic professional

Instead of being the drab expectation of an office job, suits – especially for women – can really upgrade your look and give you a new type of confidence. But why go for your usual dark suit? White fitted suits let you keep the professional vibe for your clothes while making sure that everyone knows who’s boss.

10. Go bold

Professional doesn’t have to mean boring. Stand out and make a stand against the status quo! Let your fashion match your personality and mix and match with bright colours, prints and unusual shapes.
