Alright, so I go back to work after 4 months off next week. Most of my work clothes are for winter, and the few that I have for the summer months are kind of lacking in style. I'm hoping to go shopping on Friday to pick up a few new pieces. Recommend some items you think I should probably have (either specifics, or just more generally).
Oh ya, and in case you missed it I live in Canada, so the summer is fairly toasty, but only lasts about 4-5 months (so I don't want to spend a boatload). The stores I can shop at are also somewhat limited because of it. You Americans have way more selection!
[To help you, I'm 21, working for a university in admin. Most of the work is on-campus, but sometimes I have meetings or events to attend off-campus. I'm petite - 5'4", 105lbs, and lacking curves. My office is air conditioned (sometimes too air conditioned), but there is always a chance that I will have to walk 20 minutes across campus to a meeting, so layerability is key. Dress code is fairly standard for an office - basically, no jeans and nothing too short/revealing.]
