While many office dress codes have gotten lax over the years, there's still one Summer staple that likely won't fly: shorts. This breezy bottom is just a tad too casual and revealing for business environments, making getting dressed for warmer weather even trickier — unless, of course, you have the proper alternatives.
Ahead you'll find a handful of cropped and layered pieces that are very much throw-on-and-go but will save you that side-eye from your boss and colleagues. Read on to shop our picks, then see what other Summer staples you should swap out before heading to work.
