\"LINEN<\/a><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a fashionista with a love of understated neutrals, then slipping into the season\u2019s luxurious linens just may help you embrace both simplicity and sophistication as the weather gradually warms. Whether you\u2019re looking to incorporate the streamlined and practical look of linen into your work wardrobe or bring your evening looks to the next level, here\u2019s how to get the look this spring.<\/p>\n

Casual Chic <\/strong><\/p>\n

For a relaxed Saturday afternoon, try trading your usual faded denim for a tan-coloured and short-sleeved linen wrap top paired with flowing tan trousers (as spotted at Creatures of Comfort). With monochromatic hues reigning supreme this season, there\u2019s nothing quite like dark neutrals for an escape from the season\u2019s punchy pastels and prints. To inject a hint of colour into your look, try slipping into a pair of orange leather loafers for a funky finish.<\/p>\n

Work Wear <\/strong><\/p>\n

With their subtle finish and soft hues, linen looks are perfectly appropriate for the working world and offer a much-needed break from the dark wool blazers of winter. Take your sartorial cues from Diane von Furstenberg and step out in a grey linen blazer styled with matching flared dress pants. For a contrasting effect, try a pantsuit accented with brightly coloured fringe detail and pick up your rainbow-hued fringed handbag as you head out for the day.<\/p>\n

Evening <\/strong><\/p>\n

If you normally hit the party circuit in a little black bodycon dress, linen offers a comfortable yet chic alternative to a fitted frock. Follow the shining example from the Altuzarra runway, and swap your essential LBD for an off-white linen jumpsuit with playful short sleeves. Look for a one-piece ensemble with bold metallic buttons, a waist-cinching belt and slightly flared trousers. Accessorize your look with bold bangles, and prepare to stun in a wearable outfit which will allow you to dance all night long.<\/p>\n
