Not that we're complaining, but the summer sun brings with it difficulties when deciding what to wear in the office.
What is too short? What is showing to much leg or cleavage? Well done right you can maintain your professionalism, sophistication, comfort and look great at the same time.
One foot is out the door already in desperation at the thought of getting my hands on one of these dresses.
Here are some of our favourite court dresses from the highstreet that will grab the attention of your co-workers for all the right reasons.
It may be summer but that doens't mean that black is a no go. This dress from Miss Selfridge is classy and elegant and can be adapted depending on the season. Where without tights if your feeling confident or with if its a little chilly. The great thing about this dress is that it is slightly over the knee and gets you into the feeling that summer might just be here. Wear with a light linen jacket and summer accessories to really finish it off. Available for £38.
It may be black again, but this is a dress I would be happy to keep in the closet for those 'can't make its mind up days' the weather so frequently has in this country.

This baby blue dress is perfect for summer office wear. The shape is fitting and exerts a little dominance in the workplace but the colour is a great look for the season. The pattern is also in keeping with the trend and so you'll be able to bring your personal style into work with you. If you have big sparkling blues this may be the winner for you!

FemaleFirst Fave Alert:
One foot is out the door already in desperation at the thought of getting my hands on one of these dresses. I love everything about it. The bow, the colour, the shape - it looks like everything a summer office dress should look like and more. Yes, you may have a few comments from the other green eyed monsters...sorry girls, in the office - but who cares.
Who said that style had to stop at the office door? Warehouse £30...go now...GO!!
