The Essentials: Summer Internship

As the end of the school year draws near, summer is on everyones mind. If you have a summer internship you may already have thought of doing a closet check to make sure you have an appropriate summer internship wardrobe. If you are interning or working in a city that has hot and humid summers, it is important to dress for the weather while also looking professional! Here are my essential summer pieces. All under $50

Versatile Shells 
 
Gap: $19.99
 Where them under a cardigan, blazer or on it's own to transition from a day to night look

White Blouse
  Gap: $17.99
White always looks fresh for summer and matches almost everything!

Bright Pencil Skirt
 Nordstroms: $44.90
