With a heatwave upon us, deciding what to wear to work can be a daily struggle, whether you're hybrid or full-time in the office. Fashion stylist Gemma Rose Breger emphasises the importance of preparation: nothing goes to plan if you leave it to the last minute while stressed.
The viral 3-3-3 capsule wardrobe method involves selecting 33 items to wear for three months, streamlining decisions and promoting sustainability. For corporate environments or relaxed offices, classy options abound. Warmer weather calls for ankle-grazing trousers with a central crease and stretch, such as those featured.
A smart blazer from M&S is a must, pairing well with tailored jeans, trousers, or even shorts in casual settings. Accessories like a recycled-leather hobo bag with a removable strap and a Missoma T-bar necklace add professional polish. A checked dress offers instant sophistication for meetings.
Striped shirts from NEXT remain a cornerstone; wear with cigarette trousers or white jeans and gold hoops. Swap stilettos for comfortable slingback flats, perfect with a belted blazer. For blouses, a fitted or oversized shirt from With Nothing Underneath works for any dress code.
Silk scarves are trending—a floral rose design from Belle & Bunty provides a modern finishing touch. If heels are required, Clarks offers a wide-fit option with a 55mm contoured cushion footbed. Wide-leg trousers from Abercrombie are desk-friendly, available in varying lengths.
