Let me guess—it's Monday morning, and you've just woken up and taken a look at your closet only to realize that you can't wear most of your favorite summer items into the office. While all those denim shorts and crop tops are great for a Sunday afternoon on your friend's rooftop, they don't transition quite as easily into the boardroom. Since I'm sure many of you have experienced that same thing, it's finally time we talk about the summer trends you can wear to work. Between puffy sleeves, sculptural handbags and pastel-colored suiting, there are quite a lot of seasonally appropriate items to make getting dressed for work more exciting. Thanks to our stylish-as-hell readers, here's all the inspiration you need to nail summer's best trends from 9-to-5. (or whenever you clock in and out). Keep scrolling to see the looks.
