The Summer Work Dress

It’s been a while since I’ve shared a new post to my Wear to Work Series. And when I found this Polka Dot Dress from Chicwish, I knew it would be great fit for office wear or casual summer outings. We’ve been getting several requests for workwear ideas for both guys and ladies and we have a post coming soon where we will highlight looks for both. Until then, I wanted to share this little bell sleeve number with you!

Polka dots are a great pattern because you can wear them as a base for bold colors or even other patterns. You all know that I love mixing black and cognac, so it was a no brainer to wear my leather mules and Chloe Faye with this black and white dress. The length makes it perfect to wear to the office. Heels may not be for everyone, but this style is surprisingly very comfortable and the block heel makes it much easier to walk in rather than a stiletto. Either way you wear it, you will definitely have people asking where you got your dress!

Thanks for reading! xx Ashley

    That dress is wonderful! Funnily enough I bought a black shirt with the same white polka dot pattern on last week haha!

    I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday,
