The Perfect Weekend Outfit You Can Wear To Work

by Laura Lajiness Kaupke

We’re always looking for ways in which we can make our wardrobes work harder for us, and in the summer months, that means wearing our warm-weather staples as often as possible. Which got us thinking, how can we get a little extra life out of our weekend favorites? By wearing them to work! Yes, office culture means abiding by a certain code, but if yours is lenient (aka suits not required) we’ve come up with the perfect Sunday-to-Monday outfit.

First, start with a breathable wrap dress in a midi silhouette—it’s universally flattering on every body type and a sophisticated length for work. The poppy red hue is a shade that works well for most complexions, too. Woven mules are a comfortable, yet chic choice for footwear, taking you from a casual Sunday dinner alfresco to your Monday coffee meeting with ease. In terms of a bag, knitted styles are having a moment—perfect for toting around your farmers market finds as well as a change of clothes for the gym after work. You can, of course, layer in a smaller structured bag for your wallet, keys and other personal items. Jewelry is the final touch—a mix of pieces like a coin necklace and small clear quartz hoops embody a carefree summer spirit with a polished effect.

And there you have it. The perfect summer outfit that’s versatile enough for work and play. Shop the easy combination ahead.
