Crisp button down blouse: Teaming a loose fit, crisp button down shirt over a pair of tailored trousers or washed denim, accessorised with bangle bracelets is a perfect summer workplace outfit, especially a casual Friday. Throw on a pair of cute and comfortable flats for a completed look.

A shirtdress: Not only is a shirtdress a summer essential, it is definitely a workplace must-have piece. Try out a patterned dress or one with stripes to create a stylish outfit. Belt the dress for a larger statement, or wear it with strappy sandals or statement flats to stay comfortable at the office.
