It’s insanely hot out – probably the hottest summer since my summers as a camp counsellor in Malibu California. Its bittersweet that my cut off shorts and DIY crafted tie dye tank tops are no longer the uniforms for my summer. Rather it’s really about silky shirts, A-line skirts, and great wedges.
Tips for the office: bra straps are not really okay, so if your outfit doesn’t allow you to wear an appropiate bra, you may want to rethink your outfit. Shorts are great, but always think about length. Women know when their skirts or dress are too short, but often feel they can pull off shorter shorts in the office. I would rather opt out of shorts for the office and stick with a skirt to be safe. Its easier to dress down a dress skirt then dress up (and stay in the work appropriate zone) a pair of shorts. Maxi dresses and skirts are a great options for a summer office wardrobe, but make sure they aren’t too long so you’re tripping all over it.

Stay Cool My Friends

Stating that it’s hot out, would be an understatement. I chose a mall for a shopping adventure rather than the streets of Toronto (a mistake every time) just to stay out of the unbearable heat. My tips for staying cool during these summer days are: we know that  layers are usually your friend, on days when less is more pick one great piece, in a natural fiber preferably (linens, silks, and cottons will keep your skin breathing). A summer dress in a light colour is basically perfect. Beauty Tips: waterproof makeup is your friend, a little bit of sun goes a long way for clearing your skin of any imperfections, and SPF! SPF! SPF! SPF! We aren’t even aware of the damage the sun will have on our skin as its effects get stronger!
