These "Instant Outfits" Will Be the Only Ones You Want to Wear All Summer
If you thought co-ords were only appropriate for toddlers and teens, think again. This season, we've been inundated with rather grown-up co-ords that are practical for every day. The best part about these matchy-matchy pieces is that the full outfit is already styled up, so they take minimal effort. Also, you can split up the separates to create multiple outfit opportunities.
Faithfull the Brand is always a go-to for printed sets, but the likes of Totême and Reformation have created iterations for minimalists. Mango, Arket and H&M have also jumped onboard with a selection of chic linen co-ords and summer suiting.
Keep scrolling to see how some of our favourite fashion girls are wearing this trend for summer and shop some of the best co-ords around.
Style Notes: Terry sets are the epitome of summer. The towelling material makes them feel super relaxed, and this Arket style Jessica is wearing would also be perfect to throw on when you're by the pool on vacay.
Style Notes: A shirt and skirt co-ord is the ideal option for a summer soirée. Make like Anne-Victoire and go for a block colour set for instant impact.
Style Notes: A printed shorts-and-top set is the original summer co-ord, and it's back this year. Eni opts for a Zimmermann style and keeps it the centre of attention by pairing with fuss-free accessories.
Shop co-ords:
Linen skirts are a summer hero item.
This looks like a vintage treasure, but you can nab in on the high street!
The perfect alternative to a wedding guest dress.
This twist-front tie-back top is 360-degree perfection.
You can't beat a pair of linen trousers.
Conscious brand The Array creates made-to-order pieces you'll want to keep forever.
