How to Wear Summer Essentials: White Linen Pants and Raffia Sandals
The transition from Spring to Summer is happening quickly on this side. The greenery is back to life and vibrant, temps are consistently warmer, and insects are out (not too excited about this part, but it's part of it!) This time of the year is when we start switching to light clothing and open shoes. When it comes to light clothing ideal for hot days, linen is a steady choice and one that oozes effortless Summer chic no matter the style: dresses, shorts, shirts, and pants too. Linen pants are a Summer staple thanks to their versatility and breathability. I gravitate to wide-leg linen pants during the Summer and I especially like them in light and neutral hues. Those pair well with matching linen shirts, contrasty knit tops, and even blazers. The styling options are endless with a good pair of linen pants.
For this outfit, I paired off-white long wide-leg linen pants with a sleeveless sweater tank and raffia sandals. Nothing screams Summer more than raffia sandals! These ones feature a platform design with an ankle strap that gives them a retro and very feminine allure. They are perfect to wear with flowy, floor-grazing pants.
The colorful green top brings a snazzy, season-perfect contrast to the look and makes it appropriate for weekend casual errands, lunch dates, or alfresco gatherings. To play up the contrast, I added a chunky marbled beaded necklace and resin bangles. This is a definitely a look I will be repeating this Summer. I also will be repeating the pants and raffia sandals combo with different tops so make sure you check in for more inspiration!
