Learn how to style women's linen tops this monsoon:

Posted by Yellwith us on September 18th, 2021

With linen making a huge comeback through a variety of brands and collections after being an amenity only for the crème de la crème of society, it is time to up our wardrobe game. From nationally acclaimed brands to international conglomerates, linen is everywhere! We understand that you’re as excited about this as we are, and so we have brought you the perfect techniques to pair up those linen tops for women with the right combination of bottoms, footwear, and quirky accessories. 

  • ACE THE BASICS

A white or tan linen top with your skinny light blue denims will never go out of style. If you want to keep it cazh, go for ever-so-slightly ripped jeans - a tiny rip near the knees or thighs to beat the formal touch. For footwear, you could go with the evergreen converse shoes or espadrilles for a much comfortable outing. Don’t forget to add a little bling with a subtle golden necklace or bracelet. Elevate this look with the perfect set of shades and an exotic eco-friendly tote and you’re ready to rock that chic and classy brunch vibe!

  • WORK OR DINE, LINEN ALL THE TIME

One of the most common misconceptions about linen is that it is only a daytime fabric. But that could not be more wrong! It can work equally well for evenings, especially if you’re on a holiday and rocking a sexy tan. Check out Yell’s latest collection of linen tops and colours for all your moods and vibes. Pair all your vibrant linen tops with white shorts, comfy sandals or chunky sneakers. Don’t forget the quintessential sun hat. A little sun is good for the skin, but not too much. Nail this beachy, playful look with your beachy waves as you sip your sangria. 

  • TOO MUCH LINEN? NO WAY! 

If you ever feel like you’re overdoing it, remember that there is no such thing as too much linen. Opting for a linen-on-linen look will keep you comfortable and portray a cool and classy personality. Wear an olive-green oversized linen top and combine it with off-white tailor-made trousers or palazzos. One of the best features of this combo is that the colours can be swapped and you will still be able to successfully pull it off. On top of that, any casual slippers would complement your look and hey, don’t forget to take your scarf! 

  • LINEN FOR EVERY OCCASION

Pairing linen with the right bottom wear could also make it apt for parties. Wearing a fitted linen top with cut or puff sleeves along with an accordion or circle length skirt is the perfect marriage of boho and formal. Choose a skirt length that suits your body type and mood. The real game here is to spice up the accessories and add gems to the look. Opt for silver danglers and an offbeat set of bracelets and rings. Go for a half updo, add some statement hair accessories, a tiny sling and cute stilettos and you’ll be turning heads wherever you go. 

  • DITCH THE CROWD

If you’re not a fan of all the tried and tested ways, go offbeat and do your own thing! Pair your linen top with black leather leggings. A pair of derbys or monks could surely be a huge add on if you’re up for it. Of course, if the look is too much for you or the weather doesn’t allow it, a pair of regular versatile jersey leggings would still do the trick. Make your shopping trips classy and subtle at the same time but make sure your style stands out!
