Have you switched out any of your usual work clothes for the summer? Shutterstock

Do you struggle to dress for work in warm weather?

It’s hot out there.

THE HOT SPELL is continuing, with temperatures expected to climb as high as 29 degrees this week.

As what usually happens during the summer months, many people switch up their wardrobes to stay comfortable in the heat.

However, those heading to work may find it difficult to find a balance between workplace attire (whether that’s a uniform or an office dress code) and dressing for the weather.

You may have come across, or even actively searched for, advice on how to dress for work in the heat.

Speaking to Newstalk last month, Terry Prone said that while she doesn’t think knee-length shorts are “a major issue”, she is personally less keen on sandals and bare feet in the workplace.

But sure, it’s all a matter of personal preference and what different workplaces allow.

So, we’re asking: Do you struggle to dress for work in hot weather?
