With the temperatures only soaring each day, all we feel like doing is being indoors in air-conditioned spaces. But now that we’re all back to the daily grind, working from home ain’t an option anymore! So dressing weather appropriate is key. We’ve given you a curated shopping guide for cotton dresses. Now, we move to linens, a fabric I love due to its lightweight and breathable nature. Wearing linens feels a lot like you’ve invested in your personal fan, with even the slightest breeze cooling your body. NGL, that feeling is pretty amazing because we all have rivulets of sweat going down our back right now. Besides, linen is a fabric that looks great even when it gets creased. If you’re a fan of linen just as much and on the hunt for including it in your summer wardrobe, we got your back. From tops and dresses to co-ord sets, we give you a list of homegrown labels for easy-breezy linens this season, which you can wear for multiple occasions.
