- Trend alert: the net dress, the crochet update that sweeps this summer
- The best looks with espadrilles in the key of Queen Letizia's guest
Summer is here and with it we can not help but ask ourselves the following question: what do we wear to go to the office? It is clear that it depends on work, some are more flexible than others when it comes to innovating and risking, but we want to propose a series of looks that for their simplicity, versatility and comfort will become your great allies this season, regardless of your position.
The basis of a good wardrobe background is to choose a small number of garments that can be easily combined. In this way we will avoid impulse purchases, so common in the changes of season, and dressing will become something much easier. We already reviewed the key pieces that you could include in your spring capsule wardrobe, and now we want to offer you a selection of the essentials this summer.

Steamy dresses
The dresses are considered as the best option for summer, they are comfortable, fresh and very stylish. This midi cut model with floral print is a good example of this. You can combine it with lounge shoes with heels or, if you prefer something simpler, with sandals and even sneakers to provide an informal touch.

Linen suit
The summer version of the suit. If the blazer is one of the bases of the spring capsule wardrobe, in summer it would not be otherwise. The difference? The fabric. Linen is perfect to wear a two-piece in summer. Although fresh, it does not lose elegance, making it ideal for those hot office days that require formal attire. It can be in neutral tones such as beige, white or black, but if you want to give your look a cheerful touch we recommend that you opt for more cheerful colors like this pink, after all, it's summer!
Meghan Markle GTRES
Bermuda shorts and shirt
The perfect summer alternative to shorts and suit pants are Bermuda shorts. And Meghan Markle knows it. The Duchess of Sussex is a regular dress pants, even in its coolest version: Bermuda shorts, in this case navy blue clips, combined with a white silk shirt. In addition to this inspiring look with which to raise your outfits to another level, we recommend that, if you are looking for something more casual, you opt for linen shorts.

Heeled sandals
As for footwear, we recommend simple sandals with some heels, like these oranges, although you can also opt for espadrilles. The wicker bag is also ideal for a summer look, although depending on the office it can be too informal.
