Getting dressed for work in the summer months can be difficult. It might be hot and humid outside, but we all know the office will be freezing cold. So what do we wear that we can commute in but also feel comfortable wearing in the office? From dresses and skirts to blouses and trousers, I’m sharing six summer work outfit ideas that you’re sure to love! You can also mix and match pieces from each of these looks to come up with even more office ideas for the hot summer months.
Summer Work Outfit Ideas
A Simple Blouse with Wide Leg Trousers
These trousers are the most beautiful color and since they’re made from a cotton linen mix, they’re lightweight, breathable, and oh so soft. They’re great for wearing on hot days and they’ll keep you warm in the office. Pair these with a simple white top like this one from Amazon and you have an easy but chic outfit that is office appropriate.

Color Block Faux Wrap Dress with Chunky Low Heels
If you work in an office that requires you to look a little more elevated, you can never go wrong with a dress, especially during the summer months. This one is really great because it’s soft and lightweight but the sleeves give you a little warmth when you’re in a cool office. These chunky low heels look so sophisticated with this dress but they can also be worn outside of work with a casual dress or for date night!

Cap Sleeve Midi Dress with Simple Heeled Sandals
When it comes to classic office wear, you can never go wrong with a simple cap sleeve midi dress. This tweed one from Amazon is a wardrobe classic and is a great piece to wear to work. The neutral colors are so pretty! To dress it down just a little bit, try pairing it with these simple heeled sandals, a classic pair of earrings like this pair, and a fun lip color!

Mock Neck Top with Trousers
On the days it’s a little cooler out, try a mock neck top! Having your arms free will keep you cool during your commute but the mock neck will give you a little extra warmth in the office. To keep things comfortable, but still dressy, pair this mock neck top with these elastic waistband trousers. They’re so comfortable and flattering.

A Simple Top with a Patterned Skirt and Heeled Sandals
If you’re more of a skirt girl, you can never go wrong with this one! It has good length on it to keep you covered in the office but still get air flow on your commute. Since it is on the voluminous side, keep your top simple and opt for something more fitted like this faux wrap top.

Patterned Dress with Suede Flats
For the days you don’t know what to wear and don’t want to stress about it, this dress is a no-brainer. It gives the illusion of being two separate pieces but it’s a dress so getting dressed is even easier. To help elevated it a little, pair it with these suede flats. These are a favorite in my closet because they feel secure on the foot and have a slight wedge to them so they’re more comfortable than a traditional flat.
