Zoe Saldana at the premiere of Captain America: The First Avenger
With temperatures hovering around 100 degrees throughout most of the country, it’s no wonder the majority of us are contemplating the easiest, breeziest, office-appropriate ensembles. After all, when that alarm clock rings at 6 a.m., and the thermostat already reads well into the 90s, it’s all we can do to resist throwing on a bikini, grabbing our tote bags, and heading out for the workday. Unfortunately though, excluding those lucky lifeguards, beachwear isn’t necessarily accepted business attire, so we’ve been forced to seek out equally cool, yet work-ready options.
Thankfully, Avatar star and rising fashion icon, Zoe Saldana, provided plenty of heat wave outfit inspiration at the premiere of Captain America: The First Avenger, held at glamorous El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, California on Tuesday, July 19th. She arrived wearing an airy, two-piece shorts suit, courtesy of Balmain Resort 2012, and kept things cool with a simple, universally flattering white v-neck tee. If you never thought you could get away with wearing shorts to a business meeting, think again. Check out Zoe’s amazing ensemble below, and start planning your own, budget-friendly version of her office-appropriate look!
Even though Zoe’s suit looked polished and positively premiere-worthy, we think similar separates would make perfect work wear when the mercury rises. The key to keeping your shorts suit polished and professional is all in the accessories. Zoe paired her amazing designer version with a simple white tee, but imagine how sharp a similar blazer might look with a pretty ruffle blouse or modest button-down shirt. Keep your hair and makeup clean and work-ready and you’ll pull off Zoe’s star style with ease!
Zoe completed her look with amazingly fierce Brian Atwood Pois Pumps, but we think a closed-toe flat would make the best work shoe. Showing so much leg at the office is totally doable, as long as you keep your footwear flat and flattering. Complete your ensemble with your favorite gold watch or bracelet – just like Zoe – for a professional look that really beats the heat!
