I wear business attire each day unless I'm working indoors and NO scheduled appointments (maybe one day a week). We work strictly off referrals and no walk-in business, so I'm not concerned with unannounced visitors.
I dress professionally, and not up or down acccording to who I'm going to meet.
I ware a suit everyday until June. Then it is short sleeves, shorts, and sandals until September. I will only dust off the suit for certain appointments.

Your personal dress code makes sense to me. You know, I dressed that way until I finally got a window office, and found that the solar heat made my office ten degrees warmer than the rest of the office. Just out of curiousity, how do the others in your office dress?

With the exception of the owners, the same way: business professional. The owners own the biz, they can dress anyway they want. However, they usually dress business casual unless they are meeting with a client or prospect.
I worked in NY for a business casual company, every summer for 14 years my boss would give the same speech " If your circus mirror shows 10 pounds of sausage in a 5 pound casing either don't wear it or cover it up". needless to say he was called down to HR every summer.
