With temperatures higher than +35ºC expected this Summer in the city of Valencia, and it being sunny since the very first hour in the morning when I haven't even taken my bus to the office where I'm currently working at, it feels almost compulsory to pick some light and comfy dresses as my work uniform. I work in a place where there's air conditioning for the most part of the day, but still, I get to wander a lot around exterior and semi-exterior ambiances, where the air is warm and wearing tight clothes doesn't help at all.

So, once again I'm partnering with Shein to show you a couple of dresses which are both workplace and Summer friendly. These two dress ideas are even a great idea to switch outfits day to night, just in case you are running away from work in the evening directly to an after-hour or cocktail with friends, which sounds like an absolutely great idea. My first idea to wear in chronic heat-wave mood is this 60's inspired dress in yellow with stripes on the bottom, which is perfect to wear with a pair of low heeled sandals or ballerinas. It reminds me of Twiggy's carefree style with wide silhouettes above the knee. I paired it with a pair of extra-large metallic earrings and my go-to flip-flops.

On the other hand, there's this dress which I personally didn't have many expectations put on, but which finally succeeded! On the website it is shown on a mannequin which apparently wears a petticoat underneath, so the skirt looks super wide. When it arrived it was folded, but super wrinkled and the fabric looked way too soft it almost felt sheer. But! Once it was ironed and tried on at home, it felt pretty amazing. The only requirement is wearing skin color undergarments, but it isn't as see-through as it seemed at the beginning and, although in Shein's website looks puffy thanks to the petticoat, if you don't wear it underneath it looks great anyway. I would even say it looks better, as it looks more like a light Summer dress than an inspired in 50's pin-up girls.
