Linen pants are so fun to wear in the summer because they breathe so well and are also fashionable. They are really versatile and can be worn a lot of different ways.

In this post I’ll teach you how to style linen pants and show you linen pants outfit ideas.

The linen pants I have are charcoal grey and are a little skinnier in the legs. A lot of linen pants are beige and have wide legs, but I prefer ones that aren’t so wide.

You can get them here. They’re really comfortable and fit true to size.

How To Style Linen Pants Outfit #1 – Solid Colored Shirt

I wore my linen pants with a solid black shirt and leopard mules. I prefer to tuck my shirt in for a nice, clean look. If you want, you could even wear a bodysuit instead of a t-shirt.

This is one of my favorite linen pants outfits!
