Trend: The Shorts Suit

As I'm busy interning at the moment I've not had much time to do anything, but I have been working out the rules of dressing for the office, something more difficult than I first thought, treading the line between stuffy and scruffy. The answer? Introducing the shorts suit. 

Still a tricky one to get right, but perfect for the summer and can be worn either nice and smart with some pointed heels or casual cool paired with battered loafers. There's some great options on the high street, my favourites being this beauty from Lavish Alice and a great cheap option from George at Asda. 

The trick with the shorts suit is to keep everything else quite minimal, especially if you're going for a heavy print and tights are a no no, time to be brave and bear those legs! 

Floral suit Lavish Alice 

The print on this suit is gorgeous but not too in your face, perfect for the office or a summer wedding if you don't fancy a frilly dress. Team it with a slouchy tee for a laid back edge. 

Bomber Jacket Shorts Suit George at Asda

This suit is such a bargain and the bomber is bang on trend for this summer so they can each be worn as separates as well as a suit, a multi-tasker!

Wear It With:

Loafers Office

Box Bag Boohoo

Tee Topshop

Think you'll be giving this look a go this summer?

Ebay  

Wildfox 

I'm really loving these retro style sunglasses at the moment, but not sure if I can get used to them on me personally, they make my head look weird. But when browsing for some to test out I came across these Wildfox beauties, now I'm a huge lover of the Wildfox stuff but would never buy anything due to the fact that I resent paying £80 for a tee, it just seems insane! Nevertheless, I think these sunnies are just so pretty, I adore the thick frame and they just look so chic. So in a bid to try and copy these I found these Ebay lovlies for under a tenner, and although not quite as nice I won't be upset when I inevitably find them broken at the bottom of my handbag.
Which ones are your favourites?

6. Washed Out High Waist Jeans River Island

I have finally finished the main bulk of my uni project, so for the first time I three years really I actually feel free! So of course I have been spending all my time online shopping, well just browsing at the moment as I'm obviously awaiting the next (and final, sob!) loan instalment before I actually go shopping. These six pieces are things that really caught my eye recently, I completely fell in love with the ASOS coat, I just think it's so different, and the Pret a Portobello mac is just the cutest things ever, perfect for a festival. As soon as the Olivia Burton watch comes back into stock I can safely say I will be snatching one up, they're so classic looking and really feminine even though they have the huge faces. 

Anything caught your eye recently?
