I'm sorry if this thread already exists, but I couldn't find anything about this specific topic. I need some help girls! I'm someone who is really comfortable in fall clothes and accessories but summer clothing is harder for me, especially when I have to dress for work.
I work as a receptionist at an upscale massage spa and I'm nervous about what to wear to work as it starts to get warmer. I need to be comfortable because my city has reallllly hot summers. But of course I also need to be cute, fashionable, and professional. I used to work at a casual retail store and I wore lots of see-through tops and spaghetti straps and whatever I wanted, so I haven't had to worry about this is the past. I can't just wear jean shorts all the time. In the colder months I always wear pants, but now in the summer I can't and that completely nixes my wardrobe . I don't have many dresses or skirts, so maybe I should invest in more of those, and some nicer looking shorts? Do you girls have any suggestions on stores to shop at?
Also, another big issue I have is shoes. I am a boots girl all the way. I wish I could wear boots every day of my life, but those won't cut it in the summer. I like boots because they always make me feel thin, but I am picky and sometimes I feel too fat to wear flats and sandals . Any suggestions on flats and sandals that are flattering? What do you guys think about Toms? Are they worth it or are there better alternatives? I would love suggestions!
I did buy a few new things for the meantime: a lightweight gingham button down, a nice tank top, and a couple of cute vests for coverage over tanks, so that's a start!
