But I have my two internships to speed through until I get there every weekend, and so I've been trying to find ways to punch it up. How? By looking cute. Naturally, I've been haunting Cynthia Rowley and Frock! by Tracy Reese websites to find bright, airy dresses that still qualify as work appropriate. These two picks by Frock! might make the cut:
$275, Frock! $215, Frock!
Yes, they're a little short for work. I manage to rationalize this surprisingly well by assuming that the model is a foot taller than me. But the sweet necklines, intricate fabric detail, and boldly colored patterns just thrill me so much that I'd wear them to work and then to bed. I suppose this shows that "business professional" does not at all translate into my personal fashion language. Plus, there's that whole part where I drooled over Cynthia Rowley's line for Roxy, which the high school part of me would give my right arm for (there is a 100% chance I'm going to blog about it in the near future).
What do you wear to work in the summer (assuming blazers and pantsuits are too warm for the weather)?

Such a pretty dresses..Those are perfect!
I usually wear jeans and tee...because I work at home but some cute dresses like that would work for sure!
Kisses my lovely:)
i think the one on the left could definitely be toned down enough to be work appropriate. a pair of tights and some flats and there you go! office chic.
i have always worked in healthcare so my work wardrobe pretty much consists of scrubs :)
Gosh, I reallt love the first dress! I wish I could wear dresses to work!
I'm feeling those dresses, especially the first one.
In the summer, I absolutely dress more casually... not on purpose, it's just the styles. Breezy dresses and less structured items make it that way. ... and NO TIGHTS! YAY!
