Need a new lightweight spring / summer suit

So I wear suits to work 4 days a week. As its getting warmer, I don't want to be wearing black and navy suits and definitely not my favourite wool orange one! I have a couple of linen suits for really hot weather but could do with something in between. I have autumn colouring so maybe a pale brown? I prefer trouser suits or skirts rather than dress plus jacket for versatility. Any ideas?

Bumping. Anyone seen anything?

Watching this as I'm rubbish at warm weather work clothes.

Thanks curtains . Surely someone must have some ideas.

Does it have to be a full on suit? I tend to wear a silk or cotton skirt, and a cropped linen or cotton jacket (ideally three quarter sleeved) in the summer.

Otherwise, maybe Hobbs? Expensive though.

I find suits easier as less to think about as they already match. I'm terrible for buying lovely skirts or jackets and then have nothing to go with it.

Thanks for the Hobbs tip

What about this

Its a dress but skirts seem really long.
