Reader Question answered: 5 Cute Summer Dresses for the Office

Reader Kate M recently asked “I just got a promotion and need to step-up my work wardrobe. I'm hoping you can help me find some professional but still hip clothes for the work place. Do you have any suggestions?”

First – congrats on the promotion!

Once the weather gets warmer, I am all about dresses at work. It is an easy way to look really pulled together, without having to spend a ton of money. One dress, a cute pair of shoes, and a cardi (if you work in a no-sleeveless office) and you are good to go.

Here are some of my summer favorites:

Floridian Flirtation Dress by Modcloth - $44.99


Wood block print empire dress by Eshakti - $64.95
Oak Park Dress by Mata Traders - $58

Overboard Dress by Shabby Apple - $95

 

travel far away with me belted dress at Ruche - $42.99

    great picks! all very fun and springy, yet professional at the same time. they would also work as casual pieces with some sandals and the right accessories :)

    Super cute dresses. I love the yellow sundress. I can't wear wrap around dresses like the first style because it just makes it more obvious that I have a really small chest.
