Linen shorts have recently become one of my favorite pieces lately, you can style with a lightweight spring jacket for spring, pair them with a casual tee and sneaker or pull them on over your bathing suit for a chic and casual look. Today, I’m sharing how to wear linen shorts that I hope help you for some future inspiration.
How to Wear Linen Dressy Shorts
While I love my denim shorts, I wanted a few options that I can dress up a bit more. A linen short is a perfect option to style casually or to switch out your dresses for date night.

Black Linen Dressy Shorts + Faux Leather Jacket | All Black Outfit
This chic yet sophisticated all-black outfit is edgy yet feminine. The floral shorts are stunning with the fit and flare accents and belt detail. Pair it with a sleeveless turtleneck and layer a leather jacket to complete the look for spring and summer.
Linen Shorts + Blazer Outfit | Matching Set
A matching set is a great way to simplify getting dressed. This set is from Express and I’m loving the earth tones. I styled it two ways. One with sneakers for a more casual look and then changed out the shoe and bag to add a dressier classic look.
Floral Dressy Linen Shorts + Faux Leather Jacket + White Tee
One of my favorite looks this spring is linen shorts. These floral shorts make for such a cute outfit. In the spring, I styled it with a leather jacket, but when temps get a bit warmer styling with a tee or tank is a great option. These shorts have a bit of a flare which I find makes my legs look slimmer. They are Zimmermann and a bit of a splurge, but currently on sale at Saks.
Lace Longsleeve Blouse + Linen Shorts + Sneakers Outfit
You can use the separate pieces of the matching set to change up the look completely. Here, I paired a lace long-sleeved blouse with the shorts and kept it casual with my Golden Goose sneakers. If you are looking for something a little dressier, go with a flat sandal or heel.
Paperbag Linen Shorts + One Piece Swimsuit | Vacation Outfit

For a beach vacation or pool day, having pull-on linen shorts is a great option for looking stylish in your neutral swimwear look. These shorts are from Express and I love the paper bag style as it can be worn as a coverup. For more vacation looks, check out these posts: beach vacation packing capsule & stylish swimwear
