Here’s an outfit that Inge collected. I like it a lot. Lots of coverage! But is still breezy.

Achievable with my Levi’s jeans that I have right now.

Thought I would post this as it would work on a great many body types, I would imagine.

Do you like this silhouette too?

Yes -- relaxed, cool, breezy. I can't actually wear buttoned shirts, but I still like the look very much.

I like the look but it doesn't always work so well on me. So yes to the silhouette but maybe no to it working on lots of body types.

I like this outfit with the shirt jacket for over airconditioning .

It’s a fab outfit! I’m nodding with Shevia though, because the proportions might be tricky to create I think.

I like the tonal light colors, and am definitely considering a white/statement/oversized shirt for spring and early summer. Nice inspiration!

Love it!

On me this silhouette only works in block colours and I like white and light colours the best to get that summer breeze vibe. I would also wear this in pale blue.

I wear this in the height of summer, with a sun hat, to provide protection from the sun.

Oh well that is interesting, ladies!
Thank you for correcting me about all body types being able to wear this look.

Yes, Bijou, I too would wear this in high summer when i need to be outside for a while. And yes, I’d also wear it with a wide brimmed hat!

I see the appeal for sure. But this is the kind of look that I struggle with because there is so little structure. I need a hint of flattery to feel emotionally comfortable -- I would feel sloppy in this.

Agree. Super cute.

I like this too, and can achieve it with my 11 year old silk harem pants and old CM shirt.

Yes! I love it too Smittie, and hope to find a pair of jeans/trousers similar to those so I can wear this look this Spring and Summer (I'm all over the statement shirt trend Angie mentioned earlier this week, and find that a lightweight shirt of blouse is an easy way to look and feel polished and stylish in warm weather - and I like the arm coverage too).
