We're enjoying very nice warm weather these days. Typical for the Bay Area this time of year. Wool coats in the summer and tank tops come autumn.
But, please, remember, if you're a working woman or man, there are still certain rules which should apply to your office attire.
Today at lunch, I saw a woman walking and talking on a cell phone, conducting what sounded like a business conversation. She was wearing a short skirt (no crime) but the skirt had an exceptionally high "slit" in back and she was literally offering a "peep" show to the entire financial district. Not cool.
And, please remember, not only are flip-flops not appropriate office attire (unless you're walking back from a lunch-time pedicure), they are dangerous. What if you stubbed your toe on a metal file cabinet? Ouch.
Enjoy the weather but keep it all in perspective.
Oh, and leave your tank tops for the weekend too.

I wholeheartedly agree. Even when returning from a lunchtime pedi - flip flops are not the smartest choice. What about a nice pair of patent leather sandals. They're inexpensive and carry a measure of "I am a professional and I don't wear beachwear to work attitude." In fact, flip flops are against most office rules because of the safety factor. Same thing goes for baseball caps inside of the office! Come on people. Let's have some common sense boundaries for "casual attire office".
