Memorial Day is coming up in just a few weeks, which means we can officially say that summer is just around the corner! This is cause for celebration—but it’s also a reminder of our seasonal struggle to bridge the gap between comfortable fabrics and office-acceptable silhouettes. In search of a sartorial fix, we again turned to White House Black Market, where we found several summertime pieces that suit our work wardrobes perfectly. First up: a pair of tailored Bermuda shorts. The shape may not be anything new, but the idea that this comfy shorts-slash-cropped-pants hybrid is appropriate for the office certainly is! Click through for our other four favorite essentials, and find even more inspiration on our Pinterest board!

Sleeveless vest. We love the idea of using this summertime staple to add structure to our favorite sundresses as the weather heats up. This newly on-trend piece goes with practically anything, from a skirt to a pair of Bermuda shorts!
