The question is, at what point do we allow the linen pieces from our wardrobes to start making appearances? Throughout the four seasons, most materials are fairly content with being adjusted to suit the weather/occasion, however I'm not convinced the same can be said for linen. The cloth-woven material has something undeniably fresh about it, to the extent of it seeming only 'appropriate' once the sun is shining and the gloves have been stored away. With this in mind, I'm (definitely) jumping the gun by a month or so, but I can't wait any longer - I'm bringing out the linen!

I'm absolutely loving your linen jacket, I'm going to be on the hunt for something similar! I think it's got such a lovely design even though it's quite simple. It's autumn here so I'm looking forward to bringing out my winter hats!

Linen is great but not so much for days when there's colder breeze even though it's spring already. I guess it's good for layering too.
ReplyDeleteYou look so pretty in your linen jacket Gabrielle! I totally agree that it is such a summery fabric and I also have fond memories of my Mum in her linen dresses, actually, she still gets her linen pants out as soon as the sun shines! I need to invest in this fabric more :) Also, how fabulous do your legs look in these jodphurs?! Jealous!

When I think of linen it reminds me of those really old summer fashion editorials & middle aged women drinking wine on yachts for some reason. Not this jacket though. It looks so stylish on you. I wouldn’t have though it was linen either if I hadn’t of read the post haha Love the whole look.

I'm really digging this outfit on you. You look so safari chic! Definitely season appropriate to wear lighter/thinner materials now because it is getting warmer, but there is definitely still a chill in the air!

I love your linen jacket. ;-) You look so lovely in these pictures, keep that smile Gaby. Joyeuses Pâques!!
ReplyDeletei don't think that I own any linen pieces, but this just makes me want to go find as many as possible, especially in the place where I live in because the weather is insane here. I'm LOVING the lace bra underneath, Gabrielle; it gives off such an interesting edge to the entire look.

Linen is a strange sartorial creature. I definitely associate it with warmer months but for me (at least in Oz) I find it too restricting and overly warm to actually wear out in the summer months!

Your so right, lately it has been wet or cold and it seems our sweaters and or jackets are making more appearances then other materials. I love this entire look you have on. The white is such a crisp look and goes so well with the contrast of the outfit it suits you so well. Those shoes are just gorgeous. xx http://www.bauchlefashion.com

ReplyDeleteI love linen! But I agree , it is a "warm weather" kind of material. It's also a pain to iron! That's unless you buy spray starch of course! :-)

I love wearing light fabrics like linen in spring/summer, loose white linen shirts just give me those summer vibes. Sadly I'll be packing all of my lighter clothes away now in preparation for autumn, time for me to start embracing coats again!

I love this linen jacket, Gabrielle! I agree, linen does tend to be more suitable for the warmer temps, since it's so light and refreshing to wear! I think it's certainly appropriate to begin wearing it now at the start of spring, especially in a jacket form like the one you're wearing! I love the story you told of your mom picking you up wearing a linen dress, I got the image in my mind, so cute! You look beautiful as always, girlie, thank so much for sharing!

You look stunning in white! I love this linen jacket! I just purchased a pair of linen pants and am getting used to them right now. Do you find the material a bit itchy or uncomfortable? I think maybe it just takes a bit time to get used to the material, but I'm really excited to wear a cooler fabric. Great post as always!

Typically linen is thought of as a summer time fabric but I think you can wear it all year long as long as you layer appropriately.

I love linen as a fabric, it's natural and it breathes. It might get itchy & it's a nightmare to iron lol but I am still for it - especially if it comes in the form of this jacket. This outerwear piece is too cute with its cinched waist - such a fab look, lovely!
