What are you wearing to work during the hot weather?

I'm in a flap - I'd been expecting to have another month of 15 degrees every day, not 25 degrees. AS a result, my work wardrobe is seriously lacking and I am going to frazzle like a crisp this week. What to buy?

Linen trousers and cotton shirts for me. Don't do legs in summer but I guess nice skirts also good. How formal is your workplace?

I'm wearing a cottony/lineny shift dress in a black and cream pattern. It has a pin-tuck design on the front that it incredibly flattering to my wobbly bits.

Am taking a cardigan as it is cold in work.

Reasonably formal (financial services). Don't have to wear a suit everyday though thank god.

I need nice skirts, but everywhere seems to be stocked with floaty cotton numbers which aren't formal enough. Any ideas (I'm 5'11" too, which makes it harder)?

My dress looks good dressed up or down.

I have a hideous uniform polo tee shirt i have to wear with smart dark trousers which as off last Wednesday were interpreted by me as cargo cropped trousers which i will roll higher and higer as my legs become less lilly white - hoping to get away with it forever as they were very liberating loL!
