Layered Linen pants

What to wear with linen pants

Linen is relaxed by nature. Pair it with simple shapes and let the texture do the work.

Tops

Cotton tees, tanks and poplin shirts sit well next to linen. A matching linen shirt makes a set. Keep shiny or heavily structured fabrics for another day, since they fight the texture.

Shoes

Flat sandals, loafers and clean sneakers suit the ease of the fabric. A low block heel dresses it up without looking stiff.

Colors

Linen looks best in quiet colors: white, sand, olive, navy. One stronger color in the top or the bag is enough.

Creases

Linen creases. That is part of it. A looser cut hides them better than a slim one.

Travel

Linen earns its place in a capsule

It packs light and goes with most of a warm-weather wardrobe.
