Mess For Success

SLOPPY SUMMER DRESSING
SUMMER is steaming up offices all over the world - and we're not talking temperatures, we are talking about official dressing style.Lately, exposed cleavage, pastel bra straps, the odd half-moon and plenty of toes have been popping up for air all over town. Dressing professionally in 85-degree-plus weather is never easy, and with heat and humidity a daily battle now for weeks on end, so much of the city's office populace has thrown in the towel - as well as the jacket, the cardigan, the pump and, well, any office-appropriate apparel you can name.Since reinterpreting dress code is a major no-no in many corporate offices, it's the business-casual class that is committing the most serious faux pas this season.Here is our pet peeve don'ts for summer office dressing - culled from the city streets in and around Midtown.
