It’s Hot: 30 Office looks to beat the heat
updated the 6 October 2015 à 22:54This week we have a mission – to get along with the heat in 30 chic outfits for the office.
Despite living in hot weather all year long, we have to admit that the past few days have been extremely hot and humid. The dilemma for us? Shame! Despite air conditioning in the office, it’s not always easy to know how to dress stylishly to head down to work.
So if, like us, fashion is becoming a real headache for you in this heat, here’s some advice and 30 looks to inspire you!
OPT FOR GOOD MATERIAL
Forget nylon and polyester and look to more natural fabrics, which are cooler and more breathable. Cotton, linen, bamboo… you’re spoiled for choice!
ALLOW BREATHABILITY
Avoided tight clothes at all costs. Especially trousers which, in addition to keeping us warm, cut the circulation of our already battered legs. Opt for loose parts and fluid silhouettes to help you avoid the unpleasant claustrophobic feeling in your legs.
LONG LIVE FLATS!
Like our legs, with heat, our toes have a tendency to swell. Unless one is addicted to high heels, we decide to air our tootsies in our prettiest sandals to roam the office.
A GOOD RANGE OF COLOUR
When the temperature climbs, dark colours are best kept in the closet. Why? Because although they block ultraviolet rays, the lightest colours block infrared rays responsible for heat. It’s no wonder our summer wardrobes are made up of so many pastels!
