Wednesday’s Workwear Report: Puff-Sleeve Shirtdress

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

What are we wearing on humid August days when we are required to show up in the office and look somewhat put-together, despite the fact that we’re melting? Let’s do a linen shirtdress. Will it get a little bit rumpled as the day goes on? Yes, of course, but aren’t we all a little bit rumpled at 80% humidity levels?

This short-sleeved dress from Karen Kane has slightly puffed sleeves and a breezy, but still structured feeling to it. I would probably swap out the self-belt for a braided leather belt to add a little more structure, but otherwise this looks perfect for getting us through until the heat breaks. 

The dress is $166-$238 at Bloomingdale’s and comes in sizes XS-XL. In addition to this gorgeous green, it also comes in black and orange.
