What To Wear To a Summer Internship (Under $100!)

I started my internship for the summer exactly a week ago, and the dress code is much more strict than I experienced last year! Last summer I interned at my high school and built a new website for the school and managed/planned a lot of the social media content throughout the summer months. I really loved the projects I worked on; it was exciting to manage such a big project on my own, use a little bit of my coding skills, and make content plans. This summer, I have accepted a communications internship at a Fortune 500 company just outside of Milwaukee, and the structure is a little more composed than last year's casual, comfortable environment.

When it comes to getting dressed for internships, I shared the majority of what I wore to work last year in this post. Lots of skirts and dresses, but for the most part, pretty casual. This summer I have worn similar business casual outfits, but there is a strict no denim rule and I have to admit my chambray Madewell dress and white jeans were staples in my outfit selection last year. I want to expand my options to dress up a little more, so here are a few pieces I'd love to add to my business wardrobe: (they're all under $100!)

black jumpsuit // white shirtdress // olive shirtdress
chambray dress (I couldn't wear this because of the denim rule, but I still think it's a cute and appropriate option that you might wear with a sweater over if you can!) // olive jumpsuit
navy button-down // puff-sleeve button-down // olive short-sleeve shirt // bow sleeve top
striped skirt // tweed skirt // gingham skirt (love!) // olive skirt (comes in four colors)
blue chinos // navy pants // pink pants // gingham pants // pink linen pants

It's always really cold in my office (I have my own cubicle! WOO!) so I'd love to pick up this cardigan in a few colors, too.

What do you wear to your summer job? Where are you working this summer?
