How To Style A White Linen Jacket For Spring and Summer

Jan 14, 2024

If you live in a hotter climate, you already know linen clothing is excellent for spring and summer. Linen helps keep you cool, which is essential in hot, humid climates. Today I’m going to style a white linen jacket in several ways to show you how versatile this item is.

When I was looking for a casual linen jacket, it seemed all I could find was blazers. I love wearing blazers, but I’ve seen comments where ladies wanted something more casual. I found this White Linen Jacket, which is perfect for a casual look.

I wanted to show you how to style a white linen jacket in several ways, and a dress was my first look. A dress is something I love wearing in the summer, but I like wearing a jacket or cardigan with them to keep me warm. This knit floral maxi dress is perfect for summer. I love the seam under the bust because it allows the rest of the dress to flare out for a flattering silhouette. I’m wearing a medium instead of my usual size large.

I love the modern cut-out detail that is modest and tasteful. It lets me partake in a trend in a way that I’m comfortable wearing.

One way to style a white linen jacket is by draping it over your shoulders. The most common way to wear this jacket will be worn over your arms. The jacket looks cute either way you choose to wear it.

Wide-leg pants are one of the hottest trends in jeans and pants. I recently did a post on Wearing Wide-Leg Jeans When You’re Over 50 if you would like to see more ways of wearing this trend.

This is a great summer look that is casual and chic. I like to call an outfit like this…elevated casual. It is comfortable and relaxed but put together and stylish.

This is a close-up look at the White Linen Jacket. If you look closely, you can see that it is thin and unlined. That is a plus for people living in warm climates. I love the buttons contrasting with the white jacket, and the drawstring waist adds to the casual vibe. I’m wearing a white tank under the jacket, which is of excellent quality. You can't see through this tank; I’m wearing a large, and it fits me perfectly.

You’ll love these wide leg striped palazzo pants. They are so comfortable! The pull-on elastic waistband is wide and doesn't roll over when you sit down. I also love the deep pockets that hold your keys, phone, kleenex, etc.

This Rattan Satchel is such a perfect size! I bought a larger one last year, and I get compliments every time I carry it. The Buckle Leather Sandals are a great neutral and will go with everything this summer. I love wearing sandals with jeans, shorts, or dresses, so I’m sure to get my money's worth from this purchase.

Linen on linen is the perfect recipe for a cool summer look.

This outfit would also go under the elevated casual category. Do you wear white on white? I love the clean, crisp look. I styled this outfit with black accessories that added to the classic style.

These Linen Blend Cuffed high-rise suit shorts came in before I left for the beach. I love these shorts so much that I also ordered pink and beige shorts. They fit so nicely and look gorgeous. These shorts are dressier than most since they have large cuffs, but they can still be worn casually.

The last look is this European Linen Square Neck Jumpsuit with the linen jacket. Once again, this is a linen on linen outfit, but the jumpsuit is European Linen although I had no idea what the difference was. After some research, this is what I found:

So, what makes European linen the best linen fabric in the world? The unparalleled quality can be attributed to the unique climate conditions in the European continent, the mineral-rich silty soil and generations of farmer expertise.

Flax plants grown in the region are known for producing extra-long fibers — much longer than those from linseed grown in other parts of the world. As a result, the European fabric is remarkably strong yet notably soft and breathable.

The linen jumpsuit is from Quince. Quince is quickly becoming one of my favorite retailers to shop. The products are of excellent quality, and the prices are reasonable. They also have free shipping and a 365-day return policy!
