Summers in an office environment are often difficult, and with all this talk about dress code, it’s important to understand how to dress appropriately for your office. Every environment is very different, even within the same field, so ask the questions if you are unsure and I’m always prepared with a sweater incase the air-conditioning is blasting too much.

The 1970s are full force this season, and I’m loving the classic and cool styles coming back into the scene. I found this amazing linen suit while shopping at Topshop and knew I had to have it. I’ve been on the search for a wide-leg striped pant for a while now, and when this one came with a contrasting matching shirt. I had no words.

Linen, during the summer is so unbelievably lovely to wear, as it’s light and allows for your skin to breathe in the heat. It does wrinkle easily (like, if you look at it wrong) but this seems to be more excusable in the heat.

As the day that we recognize our mothers for their fabulousness is approaching (tomorrow), Fashion Magazine, reached out to their style panel to discuss the growing trends that are reflective of our mother’s style. Now I must admit, my mom grew up with killer style, but even now, she’s has that effortlessly-chic thing down pat.

Here is what I said about my super-mom. Happy Mother’s Day mom!
