I can answer this in one word. Skirts. I never where skirts or dresses during the winter months because it's cold. In the past week, I've worn a skirt almost every day. It's glorious. What do you love (or hate) about your summer work wardrobe?

I wear a lot of capris and skirts also. I love graphic tees too. But, I still like to wear jeans and flip flops.

I love open toed shoes to show off my pedi!
I hate that I can't have bear shoulders in the office
and wear the pretty camis that are out now.

Well winter in Houston isn't really winter, but in the summer boy does it get hot! I wear capris and sandles, and even tank tops (this is so bizarre to me, but I guess because it gets so hot here its acceptable being from NY and Cali I would never think it to be ok, but everyone in my office does it)

I have a real issue with my summer work wardrobe, actually -- I seem to always end up with too many silly tshirts and not enough office stufF

I dress the same year round. My cube is in the bottom floor (the cellar! hah!) of the company. In my cube, above my chair, is a lovely (sarcasm) cold air vent. It blows cold air all year round. Even other people that come in my cube from the ones beside me (mind you the walls of the cubes are about 2' below the ceiling) tell me how cold it is in here. I wear sweaters almost every day. I just about suffocate when I get out of here though. Even going out for lunch in 80° weather in a sweater is pretty icky but it stays under 65° at my work desk. We aren't allowed to wear any logos or words on our clothes here, so 99% of my hoodies are out of the dress code.

Yikes Marcia, the cold thing sounds miserable. I hate being in an over air-conditioned office.
