Summer Prints For When You’re Stuck At Work

Perhaps when wearing these, if you put your ear to the phone, you’ll hear the waves crashing. These odds will be improved should you sneak in a mid-day margarita.

Bar III Men’s Mint Julep: Turn to this guy when when you want to feel like a long, tall drink of water, but really need a big, cold glass of booze. You may not be able to sip mai tai’s poolside today, but you can dress in preparation of those upcoming vacation days. Just pretend the fluorescent lights are relaxing sunrays, and that the printer’s buzzing is a summer breeze.

Original Penguin Number One Fan Tie: Let this enthusiastic tie cheer on your work week as you battle your way to Friday. It may not come with a free beer, but you’ll feel more like a team player to your deskmates. Need a little pick me up as your boss rambles for what feels like the fifth consecutive hour on your conference call? Just look down so this guy can remind who’s number one (in your mind, at least).

Bar III Men’s Flamingo Slim Tie: Use this number for when you need a “leg up” come the end of the day. Rain or shine, your coworkers will be pink with envy as you plume your feathers at the printer. Pair this with a salmon shirt and khakis for a warm-weather vibe, or with a light blue button down and grey slacks if your boss puts his foot down on Casual Fridays (okay, I’m done with the puns).

Tommy Bahama Printed Palm Tree Bow Tie: Don’t let summer days in the office get your tie in a knot. A palm tree print will have to suffice if the islands are calling between the hours of nine to five. At least this comes without the hazard of a coconut falling on your head? Just looking for the positives. Try this with light trousers to avoid looking too formal à la Jim Halpert in The Office.

Lauren Ralph Lauren Anchor Tie: Cubicle life weighing you down? This option will teach you to swim, not sink. It may not be able to throw you a lifeline, but at least it’ll keep your look from going adrift. Achieve this nautical vibe by tossing it over a simple white button down and brown oxfords. Refrain from announcing that you are captain of the conference room.

Vince Camuto Mesh T Shirt: So the weekend is here, and you’re still not on the shores of Montauk. No biggie. This tee will get you halfway there, and at least all the way to the nearest happy hour. A simple yet bold nautical stripe achieves an easygoing look for sunny afternoons. Throw this over your favorite shorts, kick back, and enjoy a cocktail. And repeat.

And for the little one:

Ralph Lauren Cotton Seersucker Pants: If your kid isn’t exactly a sucker for formal dressing, these super soft pants will help you win the battle. Lightweight and comfortable, these were designed for your tricky tot. Pair these with a pale polo and you’ve got a look that will certainly make a full album for your already overcrowded Facebook.
