My good friends, guess what? I found your new favorite summer set. Together this linen set comes in at $68! That’s amazing for 100% linen. The tailoring and fit are both spot on. I’m also excited that each piece if very versatile for summer, they don’t have to stay together to make the outfit. They both play well with others. So let’s talk fit: The shirt fits more like a camp shirt, it has a boxier fit with a wide neckline and lapel. I’ll be honest I don’t usually go for tops like these but I like the vibe of this one. It’s very relaxed but still tailored. I do think it fits TTS if you want it to fit like on the model, but I went up a size. I never trust linen and buttons with these boobs. I’m in the large and it’s overall loose but I like that just fine.

Now the shorts are my very favorites. I’m in the large and they fit perfectly relaxed. I was afraid they’d be short because they look kinda short in some of the photos online, but they’re fine for me! Also they have a drawstring waist which I love for a linen short. Give me elastic waists all summer long.

(Side note: I compared this linen with the linen from last year (I have a few pieces but I compared it to this tube top) and the linen of the top has more structure and is more on the stiffer side. However, I have worn + washed the tube top so I’m thinking once I was it (I’ll add distilled vinegar to my wash as well) that it will soften. The shorts feel like the same linen from last year, soft but keeps their shape. I prefer a softer linen, personally so I’m hoping with wash and wear it will soften up nicely.)

Fit Details

I am in the large of each, the top runs true to size but I wanted to make sure it was loose enough for my chest. I like the size up. I’m in the large of the shorts, fit is perfect for me. I’m 5’9″ and a size 8/10.
