(endless) Summer

Linen never needed much of a revival. It has always been a major summer staple but has appeared more and more on my personal watchlist in recent times – mostly in form of jumpsuits (seen here and here). What used to be a hippie favorite, has been elevated to resort wear with a more refined look.
This is probably the point where you start to wonder why I am talking Summer staples mid-September, the time of the year when Summer slowly begins to slip and make way for Autumn knits. It turns out, my favorite Summer piece of 2018 (linen wide-leg pants) didn’t appear until recently, when I scored it on the very last days of the designer sales. You know, the time of the year, when they become so desperate to make room for the new season, they offer an extra 20% at check-out…

Linen Love

Designers like Nanushka (love!), Staud and Miguelina (who makes the linen wide-leg pants I adore so much) have been drawn to linen in this year’s SS18 collections, but luckily more affordable brands like Mango and Topshop have also been heavily invested in the comeback of linen pieces. While it might be too late to build-up your ultimate Summer wardrobe, it is definitely not too late to score a good deal or two and take those endless Summer staples into Fall – simply add a sweater, denim jacket or tailored blazer to your go-to Summer pieces when the temperatures start to drop. Alternatively, late Summer weekend getaways are always a good idea as well, if you ask me…
