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!
Let me know your thoughts on these looks!

ReplyDeleteThank you lovely!
DeleteThat's one advantage of these shorts, they can be dressed up or dressed down!
Ahh I think these look fab! Like you say, black isn't the most summery of colours, but you've really made it work. Love it with the striped tees especially. I've got a black wide leg linen trouser I've been wearing quite a bit recently, I could do with some shorts for holiday though!
