What did you wear to work today?

So with this heat, I having a hard time dressing myself Chat Icon

I'm in the A/C all day so I dress mainly for that but then when I step out for lunch or whatever I feel like an idiot dressed in long sleeves or a suit.

I tried to make cropped pants "work" this morning (i.e. look professional) but I just couldn't.

Then I get to work and I see people in summery dresses and skirts, cropped pants and sleeveless tops...and I'm like Chat Icon I could've worn that! But I always feel like I won't look professional enough.

So what do you wear when the weather is like this? Do you still try to stay professional and stick to your usual work wear or do you say screw it and go more casual? What did you wear today?

Re: What did you wear to work today?

Our office is pretty casual too. So I have on a pair of linen (could have been ironed, but why bother) capri pants, and a striped sort of polo shirt with wedge heeled sandals.
I can't imagine walking out into the heat in a suit (though since I am sort of chilly in here, the short walk I took felt nice.)

It was an easy decision for me. The only pair of pants & shirt that weren't soaked. DH put the air conditioner in the window, right above my laundry basket of clean, folded clothes. It leaked over everything...Chat Icon
