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


I've had a look around for some more black linen shorts and I've found some here for you to shop for!

So much is said for the white shirt. To be fair, it is a classic and can pretty much be worn for any occasion, casual or work. I have a fair few white shirts in my wardrobe, all different styles of course. You can't have enough white shirts in my opinion. Anyway, that's my ode for the white shirt done and dusted. Let's talk about a different colour shirt - the blue shirt.

The blue shirt is just as classic as the white shirt. Like the white shirt, the blue shirt can be worn in different styles and on other occasions. I have been looking high and low for the perfect blue shirt for everyday wear. I finally found the perfect one from *Mango and I just adore it. It's THE perfect blue shirt for any occasion and I already know I'll get plenty of wears out of it. 

If you're wondering what ways you can wear a blue shirt and need some outfit inspo, then you've come to the right place -

1) Outfit 1

Blue shirt outfits


This one is the perfect day look. I have styled it with a pair of New Look straight-leg jeans, my Veja trainers and my Dune crossbody bag. If you wanted to wear this as an evening look, add a pair of heeled sandals. I am wearing these ones (in the second picture) from NA-KD (they are SO comfy for heeled sandals). 

2) Outfit 2

Blue shirt looks.


I have an obsession with linen trousers of all lengths. They are the ideal trousers for Summer days. Here, with this look, I have paired the blue shirt with a pair of black linen trousers, as well as a pair of white ones. For the shoes, I used my black sandals (New Look) with the black linen trousers and a pair of tan sandals (also New Look) with the white trousers. You could even pair it with white sandals or nude sandals. The black mini tote bag in the first photo is from New Look. The tan bag in the second photo is from Topshop (old).

3) Outfit 3

Blue shirt look


This look is my favourite. I love tailored shorts as they can be dressed up or down. These shorts are from Nasty Gal (bought on Vinted) and I've pulled the look together with those New Look sandals and a Topshop bag.

4) Outfit 4

Blue shirt look


I felt I needed to create an office look for those who do have to venture into the office nowadays! This look is quite versatile in its own way. If you wouldn't prefer to wear these tailored trousers (from River Island), you can wear a white pair instead. Funnily enough, I do have a pair of white tailored trousers, but they were in the wash at the time of shooting these photos! I've added my Amazon mules (old) and that New Look mini tote bag. 


What I love about these looks is that if you don't have a blue shirt, a white shirt can work just as well with these looks too! 

If you want to go unique with your blue shirt outfit, sprinkle it with a bit of DIY magic! Consider jazzing it up with delightful accessories like cufflinks or badges for a chic and unique look. Or, how about going for *custom patches? They’re a great way to show off your favourite designs and add a personal touch that shows off your unique style!
