In the winter, workwear is easy. Come the warmer months, it's harder to find pieces that look appropriate in an office setting while also being seasonally appropriate. Enter seersucker, a lightweight cotton fabric that breathes while also providing more structure than linen. I just got this women's seersucker pantsuit and have worn it with a graphic tee, but for this post decided to dress it up with my blush pink camisole (recently seen in this post) and nude pumps.

Blazer: Lightweight Seersucker One-Button Blazer c/o Talbots (14P) | Pants: Lightweight Seersucker Slim Ankle Pants c/o Talbots (14P) | Camisole: J. Crew (14) | Earrings: Zara | Bag: Essentials Clutch Wallet c/o Dagne Dover | Shoes: Nine West 
I didn't get this suit altered, this is the fit right out of the box and the second wear so I could test how much the unlined pants stretch out. It's clear the answer is not that much. Sure, they do stretch but you won't end up with a saggy bum by the end of the day.
Seersucker can look quite fresh and modern depending on how you style it. Pairing with a pastel feels springy and dresses it up. A graphic tee on a white or navy ground can dress it down and make it look hip with a pair of trendy sneakers. Or borrow from the boys with a crisp white shirt (or white silk blouse) and a pair of brogues for a look that is chic yet comfortable. This blazer would look great with white or blue jeans, the pants lovely on their own with a pastel sweater or silky tee!
The earrings are from Zara. Zara is great for accessories like earrings and bags that make a statement... but don't expect super high quality. Sadly after wearing this outfit one of the earrings broke. When I have the time and patience to play with tiny jump rings and a tiny pair of pliers I'll get them back together but it's still a pain in the you know what. Same with their clothes... great statements but not always the best quality. That being said, I have Zara bags several years old that still look great. Just know you usually get what you paid for it!
The clutch is from Dagne Dover, and like the rest of their bags it is so smartly designed. Two pockets big enough to hold things like a large iPhone, an elastic band to hold your lipstick, pockets for IDs, cash, and other cards, and it all snaps up to stay secure. Carry as a wristlet or remove the strap and carry as a clutch. This is a great travel piece as it can go from wallet to purse with ease.
