Linen is my favourite material to wear during Summer. The material is so light and airy and it’s the perfect material to keep you cool during the warm months. Recently, I bought linen shorts in three neutral colours – white, black and neutral. Today I’m going to talk about the colour and style which I have been wearing the most lately – *black linen shorts. I wasn’t really sure how to style black linen shorts, as black is not the summeriest of colours. But it’s been surprising how many different outfits I have created from these black linen shorts from ASOS.
When looking at and creating these outfits, what you’ll see is that they can easily work with black linen trousers, if shorts aren’t your thing. These black linen shorts outfits I have created are great for a simple but stylish day look.
Here are some black linen shorts outfit ideas for you:
Outfits 1 & 2
Currently, these are my favourite summer outfits. One aspect I love about these looks (even if it’s just the top that’s changed) is the addition of the belt. It kind of breaks up the look a bit and a belt is just a great accessory to have! The striped vest in the first photo is from H&M. The belt, sandals and bag are from New Look. In the second photo, the black vest is from NAKD.
Outfits 3, 4 & 5
This jacket from Zara I have been hunting this high and low for a while now. I’ve seen it on one of my favourite fashion content creators, WhatEmWore and she’s styled in so many ways, particularly with linen shorts. I’ve just switched it up by having a different style of tee underneath the jacket. The white body in the third photo is from New Look, everything else is relatively the same as the first two outfits.
Outfits 6 & 7
These last two looks are perfectly casual. In the first look, the top is from Zara, which I bought from Vinted. In the second look, the slogan tee is from Very, which I’ve had for years now. The trainers in both photos are from *Veja.
