Your Perfect Work Style

Wishing you didn’t have to sacrifice comfort in the warmer months to look professional at work? PINK has handpicked some outfits that are totally work-appropriate, so you can feel feminine and close that deal without breaking a sweat.

A shirt dress keeps it classy by pairing a button-down with a skirt. We like this one from Land’s End because it doesn’t show too much skin (and it’s under $50!)

Shift dresses can add a splash of color, like this one from Sears, and allow you to go from the office to a dinner meeting without a wardrobe change. Plus, throwing a cardigan over it can transition you right into fall.

Take advantage of seasonal patterns by pairing a white pencil skirt (try this one from White House Black Market) with a bold printed top (Ann Taylor LOFT has plenty of styles to choose from).

Keep it polished, regardless of your company’s dress code: layer light fabrics and have a cover-up ready, suggests CareerBuilder.

From real estate to financier, Marie Claire tells you how to dress the part.
