I’m not calling this an emergency post because the weather has got better and a lot of us are off on our holidays soon, but it sort of is. I also had a few requests from you to seek out some good linen pieces, so if that was you, here we are. I am keeping it brief, but if you’re looking for linen, you are in the right place…
IT WILL BE ALL WHITE (and cream)
I’m not ashamed to say I have ordered this COS dress. I tried to find it in the shop the other day but to no avail, so I can’t advise on sizing, I do think it could be the perfect holiday dress though, but only time will tell.
- Arket Linen Blend Bucket Hat
- Monica Vinader pearl stud drop earrings (use code KATEHMV20)
- Arket Cap-Sleeve Dress
- COS pleated A line midi shirt dress
- Sezane Justine Basket Bag
- M&S Leather Ankle Strap Flat Sandals
A SHORTS STORY
Everyone needs a good pair of linen shorts in their summer holiday wardrobe. Nice and light, semi-smart and pack up small in your suitcase if you’re doing the hand luggage only.
- Whistles Applique Linen Blend Shirt
- Jigsaw Woodley Square Cats Eye Sunglasses
- Abercrombie Mara Premium Linen Vest
- Arket High Waist Linen Shorts
- Loewe x Paula’s Ibiza Small Anagram Basket Bag

TEMPTED BY TROUSERS
We did cover linen trousers briefly on Sundays post, but I wanted to find a few more alternatives, as we don’t all want to wear black. This is giving ‘The Man from Delmonté’ and I’m very much here for it.
- Mango Short sleeve linen-blend shirt
- Sezane Valentina Hoop Earrings
- YSL Oval Havana Acetate Sunglasses
- Uniqlo linen blend pleated tapered trousers
- Uniqlo linen blend blazer

MONOCHROME MAGIC
Because, if in doubt, wear black. Or white. Or both together.

- Edge Of Ember Ocean Shell Pearl Necklace
- & Other Stories Puff-Sleeve Midi Dress
- H&M Linen bermuda shorts
- Mint Velvet Neutral Woven Basket Bag
- Hush Leather cage sandals
Oh, and while I’m talking about linen, I urge you to try linen bedding. I bought a set from John Lewis last year and now I can’t go back. So soft, so comfortable, so cooling for those with night sweats.
