Monochrome chic dressed in linen is undeniably classic, and this one happens to be a summer stunner. From the effortless styling to the coastal Spain-meets-Greece vibe, this outfit oscilates between versatility and elegance simultaneously. It lovingly hugs the body with its soft tailoring making it a breeze in warm weather and is incredibly flattering on fuller figures due to the high waist and roomy cut. Perfect for a getaway, a garden picnic, or even a relaxed festival brunch in the sun.

What I’d add in this case? Perhaps a light-tan leather slide or espadrille to complete the vibe. What I’d forgo? Don’t add a jacket or loud patterns. Let the linen breath and live its best life.
Psychedelic Kimonos
The burst of colors from the jacket paired over a sea foam colored top can be fit to the description of festival vibes. The combination of bold as well as breezy elements captures all the attention. This outfit brilliantly fits average and curvy body shapes since the soft krinoline smooths out the body into a nice silhouette.

A wrap top worn with wide-leg trousers in baby blue is the epitome of an outfit that exudes luxury without any effort at all.

Suitable for everything from university presentations to casual networking coffee chats—it is somewhere between work-ish and weekend.

The combination of leopard print fitted tee and vivid hot pink trousers speak absolute confidence. This is ideal for moms who love to embrace their aesthetic and bold style.

This outfit embraces that tomboy meets city-walker vibe, which is ideal for sightseeing in London or stolling around a university campus.
