Angie, for a true ankle pant they could probably be a tad shorter... I'm not opposed to this 'water in the basement' kind of look though :).
Irina, such great guidelines on wearing linen, thanks!
Cee, I've only started to add linen in small doses again 3-4 years ago. All those pieces are from Uniqlo I suddenly realize so that's probably the esthetic I'm drawn too.
Nuancedream: I totally get that. Our summers are getting noticeably hotter, making me expand my hot weather options.

“water in the basement look” just cracked me up!

HAHAHAHAHA

Cheers to dry pants....
