What shoes to wear with linen trousers
When building an outfit around your linen trousers, shoes are always the best place to start. For formal looks, you can't overlook a sleek leather loafer: chunky rubber soles give a slightly more laid-back vibe, whereas classic streamlined silhouettes offer ultimate refinement.
For a casual aesthetic, linen trousers look right at home with clean, white tennis trainers. Likewise, a pair of woven or raffia wedges gives put-together casual that screams summer.

What top to wear with linen trousers
When it comes to deciding what tops to wear with linen trousers, you have options. If you want easy vibes, a plain white t-shirt is our go-to weekend pick - chic yet simple. Additionally, pairing your linen slacks with a floral blouse or knit vest adds a bit more structure and detail while keeping it casual. Throw over a relaxed blazer and you’re ready to take on more dressed-up affairs.

How to accessorise when you’re wearing linen trousers
When it comes to accessories, you have full license to get creative and have fun. There are far fewer rules for accessorising linen trousers than there are for other bottom styles, so mix it up and wear what you like! We personally love playing with contrasting textures via a raffia bag, or amping up the beach-girl energy by layering bead and cord necklaces.
