Summer Business Casual in the Tropics

I've worked for the same company for the last 10 years and started my career in Nigeria. At work the most formal dresscode we have is business casual and jeans are pretty commonplace. As I've risen up the ranks and changed countries, I've changed my dressing (a little).

I do have a summer look. Yes I do. The only thing is that for me

summer look = winter look minus the sweater = spring look minus the pashmina = fall look minus the boots 

That's right, my business casual look is a button-down shirt and smart pants with leather loafers or oxfords. Occasionally, I may go for a camisole with a jacket or swap my pants for dark colored jeans but outside of that, I look the same at work all year round. I guess you can take the girl out of the tropics but you can't take the tropics out of the girl.

I thought hard about which celebrity best epitomised my look and I was quite surprised to land on Ellen DeGeneres. Now whodathunk that?!
