In this post I would like to continue what I started in the previous post, summer and linen. If you missed my last post, you can catch up with us here.
Today I would like to present you my new linen waistcoat (UK version) or a vest, as its called in the United States. If you live or have been in Australia during summer months, you sure know how hot and humid it could be, so wearing items like vests, singlets or spaghetti strap dresses makes perfect sense.
Out of all summer fabs popping up on the streets of Sydney, the linen or light cotton vests seems the most popular. Some women like to wear them paired with wide legged pants and flats sandals or sneakers, while others opted to wear them with pencil skirts and heeled shoes, a smart way of mixing casual and smart for the office.
I was on the lookout for a linen vest myself and when I saw a vest in bottle green colour in Zara, I couldn't resist adding it to my closet. It came right on time, as the temperature in Sydney has soared to new heights in the last couple of weeks. Today I am wearing it with my old white Bermuda shorts and flats but I also tried it with my new tie-dye skirt (worn here) and white linen pants (yet to be shown ) and it looks great with both.
It might make you chuckle looking at me wearing a scarf in the middle of the hot summer day but we are on the way to a museum and as all other public places in the city, it is heavily air-conditioned and very cold which makes me get seek easily, hence I seldom leave the house without one.
As I am writing this post, I am looking at the images that my younger daughter just sent me from one of the ski resorts in Japan, where the snow is up to her knees and the temperature is below zero. And she is absolutely loving it. Go figure 😀.
Until then,
Anna
XOXOXO
I am not looking forward to the summer heat and humidity but I do love this outfit option. I still don't have a vest (or waistcoat) as I haven't come across something in store (I don't want to order online.). I really like the addition of the scarf!

Thank you Mireille, maybe you will find something closer to the summer season
DeleteI've been wanting a menswear style vest like yours! I had a few then of course I purged them when they went out of style. Darn it! Yours looks fabulous paired with white!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool summer look! I love the addition of your scarf. Love those cute sandals too!

Your new linen waist coat is so lovely. Adding a scarf was a good idea.

I am not looking forward to summer because of the heat. But at least I know there are ways to stay cool and look beautiful while doing it. Your linen waist coat is the perfect solution! The color is also stunning. It looks refreshing against the white Bermuda shorts and I like the added scarf. It ties your outfit together beautifully!
