As the heat intensifies, you must update your wardrobe with selections that will allow you to remain cool, comfortable, and chic at work and at play, whatever your summer plans and activities are.

ZALORA Basic Scoop Back Sleeveless Dress, P279 (originally P549)

If you’ve already plotted these Globe summer events in your April and May calendars, the next step is to shop for the right outfits for them. And if you’re going to Boracay this Labor Day weekend (to attend ZoukOut), make sure you throw in a bikini or two—or three—into your shopping list!

If your packed summer calendar just won’t allow for shopping time (especially before this weekend), you can always just visit Zalora and do your shopping online. You can browse thousands of options and take advantage of their Great Summer Sale, with discounts of up to 50% off and you can even get an extra 15% off selected items when you buy two or more of them.

But what’s better than the additional 15% off is the special 20% discount exclusive for Globe customers for a minimum spend of P1,000. Just use the code GLOBESUMMER when you shop for outfits from the Globe Summer Takeover collection—click here to access the page.

I scoured through the Zalora sale items on the Globe Summer Takeover collection, always sorting by “Lowest Price,” and found these work-appropriate pieces that are perfect for when I attend summer events here in the city. I also threw in a two-piece set, since I need to update my bikini collection—you know, just in case I actually hit the beach anytime soon!
