Luxury Linen for Less

Rainbow linen top and matching striped trousers, both Topshop

My love of linen is growing as the temperature continues to rise (and rise, and rise). No longer limited to just the beach (although I realise my snap of my favourite linen twinset is at the beach...) linen separates (and sets have been taken up a notch for summer '18 and I'm completely here for it.

Light-weight and easy to wear this breezy fabric, my wardrobe has started to revolve around linen separates and if, like me, you're avidly exploring any and every available option to keep cooler tailored pieces are the best place to start. With dressier styles providing easy-to-wear options for either a day at the office or a special summer occasion.

Keep an eye out for cropped trousers, buttoned down camisoles and sharp shouldered jackets for a more grown-up approach to the trend. And, don't be anxious to play around with your linen options paring linen together - it's one of those lovely trends where more is more.

My only warning is that you might finish your day with a few more creases than your cotton separates might offer but, over these summer months, you can definitely get away with this a little more. And, unless you're going to steam your look on-the-go there's no real way to truly avoid them - if you know of any let me know!
