Israel.

A lot of people moving here from France lately. They really stand out in their clothing habits :)

Yup, the French are well dressed. In Israel wearing jeans is fancy

Dressing officially isn't necessarily the same as dressing well...

But who am I kidding with this injured pride, french really dress really damn well.

Also Israel being very hot is probably much more lenient on flip-flops (and shorts)

Having worked in a similar hot place (but probably not as dry) I can say the tolerance is smaller on 'mild temperature' places

Israel (to be exact, the strip along the mediterranean beach where all the offices and IT companies are) is incredibly humid, in fact — that what makes the heat unbearable. But the stories I heard were from California, and I assume it's just as hot over there.

In general, in California the hot parts are not particularly humid, and the humid parts are not particularly hot.

That sounds like a really pleasant mix. On the rare days that it gets really hot in Netherland, it's usually also humid.
