THE MOST FLATTERING LINEN SHORTS FOR SUMMER

I cannot wait to tell you about the perfect pair of linen shorts I discovered just in time for summer. It can be so hard to find a flattering pair of shorts and I couldn’t even really envision my idea of the best linen shorts until I stumbled upon this pair and promptly ordered them in three colors. I love, love, love the combination of the tailored look in the front and the elastic waistband in the back. I can’t recommend these linen shorts as a classic summer staple more highly and have been hearing rave reviews from many of you (on all ages + different body types!) after I shared them in this Instagram reel!

The most flattering linen shorts for summer

The Boden Hampstead linen shorts are 100 percent linen and have a polished look but relaxed fit that makes them perfect for everyday summer style (and especially for mom life if you’ll be running around with little kids all summer!). They come in a great range of colors and the quality is excellent for the under $100 price point. (The white pair is not entirely opaque so definitely wear with nude underwear!) I  can’t stand when shorts are tight around the leg and these are just the perfect fit — for reference I am wearing the size 4 and I think they’re a perfect length too. Plus they are just so darn comfortable!

I think wearing these linen shorts with either striped or solid button-down shirts makes them feel a little dressier and gives them a touch of sophistication, but they honestly have endless styling possibilities and would look just as sharp with a simple white tee (this $15 favorite is a perfect choice!). However you style them, these linen shorts are truly one of the best things I have purchased for my summer wardrobe in years and I will be wearing this perfect style on repeat all through the summer months!

P.S. If you’re looking for a flattering pair of denim shorts, I like sizing up in this pair for a relaxed fit that’s still true to my personal style!
