7 ladies flip flops perfect for the office

Deciding what to wear to the office in summertime is never easy. You want to keep cool but look smart. You may also be hitting the town after work, so you need something which ticks all the boxes.

Office fashion faux pas vary, depending on which industry you work in (law firm or ad agency) and where you work – in the city or by the beach. But, unless your office has a strict dress code, the rules are often unspoken, which means it’s time to get creative.

Flip Flops or Sandals are my go to in the office during summer (I’ve got at least 10 pairs, and counting). With the right outfit, jewelry and makeup, flip flops and sandals can be made to look really professional.

I always keep a pair of smarter shoes under my desk, though, just in case (normally for if it rains during the day)! If the big boss is in I am sure to walk around slowly so as not to alert the office police with my flip flopping. Although really they wouldn't mind as I always choose the smartest styles. Here are some examples:

It’s hard to find something that suits both the office and the cocktail bar. These summer sandals look equally as elegant on your feet when you step into the office as when you step out for a night on the town. Simply gorgeous.
