Summer Style Ideas for the Work Place / New Look Haul

Summer style ideas for work outfits is something a lot of us search for. In winter, we tackle the cold weather by layering and for fashion bunnies, this is actually a really fun and easy way to create new looks.

In summer, we wear less which means the pieces we choose need to work harder on their own, and although for the most part summer attire looks effortless, it is often far from it but where accessories really come into play.

My new workplace operates a business-casual rule Monday – Thursday and on Fridays, it’s casual. Much like my previous workplace (where it was actually far more corporate), I loved finding looks that injected a bit of colour and fun into an outfit and this hasn’t changed. Also, since lopping my long locks off (here), I have been loving my new look and I have been eagerly anticipating the summer to work a new, fresher style.

So with that all in mind, here is how I might be wearing the selection of new pieces I bought recently.

Summer style outfit #1

A black t-shirt is a black t-shirt but it is such a wardrobe staple and can pretty much be worn with anything. That being said, there is such a thing as too much black & in the summer this should be avoided where possible. This outfit would be perfect for casual Friday.

Summer style outfit #2

I love this cotton checked dress and it demonstrates beautifully how something as simple as a belt can alter its appearance.

I also love how it partners up with a black jumper!

Summer style outfit #3

Similar to a black t-shirt, a black dress is also a great work staple and I love this style. I do often prefer something more fitted but when it’s hot, something more loosely fitting is favourable. Its best feature is its versatility with accessories!

Sometimes even a bold lip can be the statement accessory

Sometimes though, you get items that need nothing more added to them except a pair of strappy heeled sandals like this AX Paris dress.

What is your perfect summer style and like me, have you recently done something different with your hair? I recently chopped all my long hair off and I feel so much better for it.

I hope you enjoyed this post.

Until next time x
