What to wear to work this summer !

Women often find themselves staring at the wardrobe all morning, in search of that perfect dress, that will make their day at the office. What exactly are we looking for? Well whatever it is that you are trying to find out, with those sleep-craved eyes, getting ready for work is not easy.

The first choice–a casual cartoon tee. Well you know the consequences right? Next in line are the denim cut-offs. They are too casual. The latest trend—a cropped top—strict no-no. Linen Pajamas are for the night-outs at a friend’s place. And those strappy things are for a party. So where do we end? Well, there’s no point dressing up in a blouse And skirt with high heels for the are only suitable for the large screen.

Believe it or not, we Indian women need to make a lot of adjustments with regard to the thing that we are going out for. Work has a different wear and so has parties. You cannot wear your official party clothing to the club. A pool party wear is so different to the same friend’s brunch next week. And in all of that there lies the basic basic need to look gorgeous. Almost 24X7. And then there’s the issue of time. We women are stated to be always late for everything. Affably, that’s not how getting dressed for work happens. The limited period of time has to put to full use making the most of whatever is available.
