Utility, But Make It Linen

"Elevate a relaxed linen-blend set with statement accessories! Cinch the waist of a button-up with a bold belt with metallic hardware, or contrasting colors.​ Ground the look with some neutral shoes or boots, and add a structured bag that transitions effortlessly from casual to dressy.​"

Bring your light linen-blend look together with the right accessories.

 

The Versatile Trench

"Your trench is up for anything.​ Push up the sleeves to create a more relaxed, approachable vibe and tie the belt at the back for a sleek, tailored effect.​ Pair it with lightweight knits or a fitted tank and straight-leg jeans for a versatile outfit that works outdoors and even indoors!"

Define That Waist

"Highlight your waistline with a cropped trench by wearing it open over a tucked graphic tee and striped denim for a playful, fresh look. Opt for a fitted turtleneck and add ankle boots for dressier vibes.​ A crossbody bag or belt bag can enhance the utilitarian feel!"

One-and-Done Dress

"A one-and-done that can be styled up or down! Pair tall black boots and a matching belt for a classic look. To elevate the look, swap the matching belt for one with bold hardware or texture, and add sleek heels or tall boots.​ Experiment with layering a cropped sweater or a lightweight trench at the office."

Structure, Meet Softness

"Pair a utility skirt with a linen-blend button-up and add a belt to define the waist. Tall boots ground the look and add elegance.​ For a preppy touch, drape a lightweight sweater over your shoulders or layer a fitted tank under the button-up.​ Add a slouchy bag and minimalist jewelry to keep the outfit effortless and chic.​"
