Do you sometimes wonder how you can feel cool yet look classy when it’s hot? I found the answer long ago in the book: Hot Tips: 1000 Fashion and Beauty Tricks by Frances Patiky Stein. In the “Summer Tricks” section of the book, she tells how to make an instant summer suit. I’ve used this outfit idea dozens of times when I was working and it kept me cool while being office-appropriate. Although this won’t work for a very conservative corporate environment where an actual suit is required, it’s useful in many other ways. You can put together your own suit from cool separates where the dress codes is not so strict as well as for business evenings, business travel, city day meetings and events and even business in country settings. Age doesn’t matter at all!
First I’ll give you the trick as presented by Stein in her book. Then I’ll tell you how I used it myself and how this outfit combination can be adapted to different occasions. This post is an installment in my Style Tips category.
Timeless fashion advice that is still helpful to this day!
Do you tend to reach for your pencil skirt often in the Spring and Summer? Or does it just sit in your closet getting overlooked while you wear shorts and sundresses? Mine has been sitting there waiting, so I decided I may as well start using it. It doesn’t matter if you are going to work, doing errands, going out for the evening, or just lounging on the weekend. Age doesn’t matter. I have come up with about 50 ways to make your pencil skirt useful during the warm seasons!
There are so many ways to wear a pencil skirt that I am writing about it in two parts. This is Part One: For the Warm Weather Seasons, Spring and Summer. In the fall, I will write Part Two: For the Cool Weather Seasons, Fall and Winter.
I share my outfit ideas and list them for you so that you can use them to put your clothes together every day without having to think about it. I encourage you to save the ideas you like out of my posts and put them in a place to easily refer to as needed. I hope that it is helpful to you. Let me know by leaving a reply below this post!
