How to Dress for cool AT THE OFFICE in the summer heat

Summer has arrived and soon enough, we’ll have the hot, humid temperatures and the constant sweating as soon as you walk outside.

We have a love-hate relationship with the summer heat , especially those of us dressing for a hot summer day during the work week, knowing good and well that despite the blazing temperatures outside, it’s another story inside.  

So, how can you dress for the freezing temperatures at the office without becoming completely drenched as soon as you step outside in the summer heat?  A few of the CLT boutiques have some great ideas to help you find that happy medium so that you aren’t regretting what you decide to wear into the office during the summer season.
