Linen We Love: Your Go-To Guide To The Season’s Favorite Fabric

There’s a reason linen always finds its way back to the forefront of our wardrobes every summer: As the perfect blend of lightweight and effortless, it’s a versatile seasonal favorite.

Word on the street is some people still think linen is exclusive to the beach… Good thing our stylists are here to squash that myth!

Office-appropriate linen layers. Linen you can live in on the daily. Vacation versatile linen that can go from resort to rooftop. There’s something for everyone!

Read on for all the linen styling (and shopping) inspo you need.


LINEN IN THE OFFICE

Stylist Notes – In Candace’s Words:

Is linen for the office appropriate during the summer season? The answer is… YES.

When finding appropriate linen for the office, we encourage you to look for an option that can maintain structure and crispness so you feel polished and sharp all day long!

This Smythe blazer is made from a blend of linen, lyocell and silk. And the short sleeve detailing is a fun element to have in the wardrobe for the summer months that also transitions beautifully into early fall.


LINEN IN DAILYWEAR

Stylist Notes – In Brooke’s Words:

Linen doesn’t always have to feel beachy. It can easily be part of a cool-girl, everyday wardrobe.

I’m absolutely loving the effortless utility vibe of this linen set—it feels relaxed, modern, and incredibly versatile.

Style it with these chic wedges, a fun beaded bracelet, and a bucket bag for a youthful, elevated look that’s perfect for everyday wear.


LINEN ON VACATION

Stylist Notes – In Christine’s Words:

Linen is widely considered the ultimate summer vacation fabric because of its natural texture, cooling properties and relaxed, resort-ready silhouettes.

I love the versatility of this Siena linen dress by Cala de la Cruz. Wear it casually with flip flops for an afternoon stroll or style it with white linen pants and heels for an elevated rooftop dinner.

Vacation packing tip: Choose items that can be worn multiple ways to minimize packing!
