What to wear to work: 9 summer trousers to keep you cool in the office

Whether its long, wide, cargo or cropped – the summer trouser has had its own renaissance and can deliver you from desk to dinner without missing a beat

From the streets of Paris, New York and London, the relaxed office pant is a summer staple

Summer is officially here and temperatures are hotting up, and we are looking for hard-working clothes that are as comfortable in the office as they are when you reach that negroni you’ve been dreaming about all week. Never mind Barbiecore, we are looking for comfortcore with a side of insouciance that is made for Ireland’s particular blend of cool mornings, daytime dazzle and chilly nights.
