I know what to wear when the weather is in the 50s. And when it reaches the 70s. No clue how to dress when it starts off in the high 50s in the morning and goes up only until the 60s in the afternoon.
Morning at that temp I need a jacket. Which looks ridiculous with no socks so I wear opaque tights. Then it goes up to the 60s, jacket nog necessary but a little strange for no socks and a little strange for opaque tights.
How do I dress for work each morning?? Been this way for 3 weeks and while I love the mild weather I can't wear my fur clothes or my white clothes.

Definitely not opaque tights at this time of year. Either no socks at all, Or nude tights. Any color skirt except white. Any color top. Any shoes except white. Light jacket if you are cold. No wool or fur.

Is this a serious question?

OK - serious advice: You should only work part time to make sure you're home by the time the weather gets to the 60's (If you have to work full time, get home to change during your lunch break)

Hey Sanguine, I totally relate to this question! It's a real question! Non-tznius keepers wear pants this time of year. What about us?

I can't stand wearing opaque tights or stockings.

Pants

Seriously. I usually wear skirts, in the winter with warm tights and in the summer with bare legs. But in midseason I break out the pants. Doesn't last too long, normally, at least in NY.

Thank you for taking the time to answer this seriously and I appreciate your advice!
I feel wierd in no socks or nude pantyhose when I'm cold but I did it anyway. So I shivered away on my way to work but felt a little more appropriate than with tights. I think long skirts may be the answer here but sometimes I need to be a little dressier.
Thanks again!

Long skirts would make sense too. I didn't think of that, because I never wear them.

Don't know how professional looking you need to be for work but I love long skirts. Especially for this time of year. There are plenty of long skirts that are nice but in general they are a more casual/less business office look than short skirts.

I've never cared enough to worry, but could you put on leggings for the way to work and then take them off in the bathroom? That way you're warm in the chilly morning, look professional at work, and not too hot for the way home.

On top you wear a sweater, blazer, or jacket, but with a full shirt (not shell or sleeveless) under so you can peel off the outer layer as needed.

I can't believe I wrote that! For the record: I LOVE wearing opaque tights. I can't stand the summer "let's pretend my legs are bare" kind.
