How To Wear Shorts To Work—No, Really!

Colored blazers are okay, but colored jeans are not; you don't have to wear pantyhose anymore, but you'd feel weird showing off your shoulders — ... today, corporate dress codes are a lot more lax, but that doesn't mean that you can roll in wearing this season's pajama trend and get away with it.
With summer a-broilin' away, we're looking for any and all opportunities to engage in work-to-drinks dressing, and that means finding a way to wear our favorite summer shorts to the office. So, we put together three professional ensembles that incorporate summer shorts without the "just back from my beach house" effect. Pens out, ladies — you'll want to take notes.
