Lauren Conrad shows off the perfect summer smart casual look while launching her first novel in New York.
The Hills star teamed smart tailored shorts with a light silk blouse for a great comfy look that really means business.
The hear of summer can make is hard to pull off a smart look without being uncomfortable. A summer wardrobe is a minefield of low cut tops and too-short-for-work skirts but Lauren managed to look smart and professional without comprimising on style or comfort.
Tailored shorts are an essential summer workwear item and look great with either flat shoes or simple courts. There are plenty of flattering knee length styles available if your office wouldn't appreciate Lauren's short cut.
A loose fitting puffy sleeved blouse is another great way to keep cool whilst still looking smart. The subtle print on Lauren's top is a great example how to take fashion trends to the office in a subtle way.
