How to wear white linen? It’s definitely a classic when it comes to spring and summer styling! It’s a classic. But….it can be a little tricky to wear. It can look stiff and if you’re not careful can look too big! I bought these Eileen Fisher linen white linen pants for an upcoming trip. Her designs are on the boxy and loose side, which is SO COMFY, but at the same time you need to be careful!
Most important to me when wearing linen, is what you put with it! I would normally say to always wear some heels to give you a longer look. But with my look here, I loved the bright neon yellow loafers for a very laid-back vibe. My sweater is very loose as well, and so I brought it all in with a knot. This still works in my eyes, because by tying the sweater it brought everything in, but still left me with a loose and casual look!
A good rule to follow when you’re wearing linen pants is to keep your look very simple…..minimalistic as they say! During the warmer months these pants will actually keep you cool! The breeziness and breathability of this fabric is ideal! Wear them with a simple tee, wear them to the beach over your swimsuit, or even a linen button-down shirt! You don’t need much to go with your linen…..so a very good pant to travel with!
These are some pieces that I would pair with these pants to create a classic and timeless look! You’ll see that EVERYTHING is very simple. If you want to add anything extra….think accessories! Scarves, hats, jewelry, even your shoes should be the items that AMP up your linen!
LINEN to me is CLASSIC, SIMPLE, and most definitely CHIC! If you’re in to easy and breezy….LINEN is for you! Have fun with it! It’s a great investment this time of year…..it’ll become your go-to!
