When you spend more than six hours in the workplace, you need to be sure you're looking bomb while doing it.

Summer can be tricky when it comes to your career wardrobe. In fact, you deserve a trophy if you make it to work with your edges still laid and free of sweat stains. While it's scorching hot outside, it's freezing at your desk -- how do you win? From now until September 23, it's our duty to keep it cute and cool.

And that, that involved a kitchen counter.
