ย Now that it’s warmer, I’ve traded out my skinny jeans in favor of linen pants. I’ve been styling them just about the same way I would with jeans, layering a boxy tee and leather jacket on top with slip on platform sneakers.
Shop My Favorite Linen Pieces
I grabbed these linen pants last month from Retail Therapy and if you’re looking for other options, these joggers by Caslon look very similar to mine and just $59, plus they come in several colors. These cropped ones by Caslon are similar, but more minimal. I also love these linen drawstring pants (love them in cream and black!)
These J Crew linen tees are on sale for $32 (originally $50) and they have vintage inspired roll up tees–trying to choose between the pink or white or olive color! For a tee with some special details, these linen tees come in stripes and different colors, plus a scoop neck and ruffle sleeves. I personally prefer a more billowy linen top (I usually order up a size or two) or shop for tops like this one with the kimono style sleeves.
Favorite Graphic Tees
I’m wearing this boxy tee from CHRLDR, one of my favorite brands for tees, sweatshirts, anything athleisure and activewear. There are a lot of tees in their sale section right now too.
Some of my other favorite brands for tees are Z Supply (no graphics, but the best basic tees) and Chaser–they’re a little more expensive, but when they’re an outfit staple like they are for me, they’re worth it since I wear them over and over every week. Right now, I want this colorful lip tee by Chaser! For some more affordable options, this cute Def Leppard tee with the tiger is just $35 + free shipping or this heather grey Good Vibes tee!
Sporty Summer Shoes
Platform sneakers and sporty platform sandals are what I’m loving so far this spring. The slip on sneakers I’m wearing here are half off and I have them in white too! Super comfortable and just $50. I also have these Steve Madden lace up platform sneakers in black and they’re great with jeans, shorts and dresses. Another great sneaker option are these slip on Vans with the platform!
This strappy platform sandal is super sporty and appear to be comfortable (they’ve been on my want list for a month now!) I also love these Naturalizer platform sandals in matte black and white. I love the contrast on these color blocked sandals (come in black and also tan.) And I’ll leave you with these platform sandals with buckles by J Slides. They come in several colors and I narrowed my choice down to black or tan! I’ve heard great things about this brand and a few friends own their slip on sneakers. They cost a little more than the others, but I love the buckle sandal style so much!
