Hello friends! Today’s post is dedicated to a few of summer’s favorite things. Some I hate, some I love and some I simply can’t be without. In a nutshell, we’re talking about linen, summer’s iconic material. When linen comes out it’s official the warm weather is here to stay.

I love linen, but seriously, I also hate it. I love how it looks, feels, flows and of course how comfortable it is in the hot weather. But I so hate the wrinkles and the see-through factor that comes with it! White wide leg pants are another summer staple I don’t style often but absolutely love when I find a great pair! My biggest problem with white linen pants is finding a pair that doesn’t showcase my big butt. Because my skin tone is darker everything is automatically heightened! These linen wide leg crops are perfectly fully lined and doesn’t allow for the booty to be viewed by the world.
It’s also important to think about proportion when wearing wide leg pants. You want to balance out the volume on the bottom with something a little more tailored on top like this belted sleeveless top. It flows great and looks amazing with the white wide leg contrast. The cropped legs look fabulous with heels or wedges or for a more casual look try a pair of sandals and a tee. They’re airy and light and very flattering and the cropped length is summer practical and chic!

SHOP THE LOOK
love this look!
Thank you Isabel!
I know how you feel about linen! Why must it wrinkle so much? I put all this effort into ironing and steaming and then I get out of the car and it looks like I’ve slept in it.
But these pants do look lovely on you and nothing feels more like summer than linen.
Chic on the Cheap
Thanks Lydia! I agree, the wrinkle factor is sooo annoying. I’m glad to have found these tho. Thanks for stopping by! -R
