Getting dressed in the summer is no easy feat. When the temperature is 80 degrees and up, it's tempting to throw on denim shorts and a tank top and call it a day. However, my trick to staying stylish and comfortable in sweltering heat is to rely on breezy linen pieces for my summer capsule wardrobe. To be more specific, I'm talking about J.Crew's linen selection in particular.
The brand's summer collection offers every kind of summer staple in the lightweight, airy fabric. Whether you're hunting for summer dresses and shorts or T-shirts and linen pants, you can find them at J.Crew. Team that with its classic old-money sensibility, and you've got a match made in summer fashion heaven.
There are over 150 rich-looking linen pieces to muse over, so to make your new-season shopping trip easier, I rounded up my top finds in every category. These linen picks are pieces you'll turn to constantly over the next few months, whether you're adding them to your summer work outfits or vacation packing list. Plus, some of my favorite linen pieces are currently on sale, so there's never been a better time to shop.
