Seriously though, except when prefligting in AUH in August (48c) the uniform shirts last for a while as you will change into your "cruise clothes" at top of climb (however that is defined by the big cheese). PVG has an in room laundry machine sometimes and HKG has a quick/cheap laundry place right around the corner. ANC has a crew room with machines, MIA has machines in the hotel, and I'm sure there are others that I can't think of right now.
As for the temperature change thing ... you'll figure out how that works best for you. No matter what, if you're scheduled to go to someplace really hot and tropical, pack your warm wooly stuff or you'll freeze your pitot tube off when crew scheduling is done entertaining themselves with your itinerary.
