Comfy & Light, Linen Dress for Summer
Dress c/o* | Flats | Belt | Necklace (similar) | Earrings (similar)
Finally! A dress that isn’t floral, haha. Loose-fitting, linen dresses are still a pretty new venture for me. But gosh, have I been missing out. This dress is so comfortable! It’s fantastic for the muggy and hot weather we’ve been experiencing…well, except for the day I took these photos. It was actually pretty chilly, haha. Gotta love the ever-changing weather in Wisconsin!
This dress is from a new-to-me company called Magic Linen. They’re a family run business from Lithuania, where linen growing, weaving and sewing traditions have roots from ancient times. And they ship all over the world! I really enjoyed ordering from this company. The dress is very comfortable and well-made. The only problem with linen clothing, though, is it tends to wrinkle easy. But when it’s hotter than heck, I’d rather be comfortable and have a slightly wrinkled dress…than be sweating buckets in a dress that doesn’t breathe.
I still haven’t been able to bring myself to wear these smock-like dresses without a belt, though. I just feel so much better when my dresses have a cinched waist. Maybe one day I’ll walk out the door without a belt…just not yet, haha. But I did manage to take it off for a few shots with this dress, below.
I LOVE that this dress has nice deep pockets too. I’m getting to the point with my dresses and skirts, that if they don’t have pockets I don’t like to wear them. It’s just so nice to have a place to put my keys or phone…or just somewhere to put my hands. Haha.
Once I have access to the rest of my clothes in storage, I want to pair this dress with some brown accessories too. When I first saw it, I pictured pairing it with a brown, leather, braided belt and brown leather gladiator sandals. That’ll hopefully be happening soon! The house hunt is going very well right now!

That is a beautiful dress! Linen is nice in the heat, but I hate ironing so I avoid it, can’t stand seeing something I painfully ironed all creased up right away, haha!
I still need to reply to your email – sorry, I can be a bit long winded so I need to trim it down!
Hope that you are having a great week so far! 🙂

Thank you so much! And oh gosh, I hear you…ironing it only to have it wrinkle immediately is so frustrating. And no worries about the email! Whenever you get a chance to reply. 🙂 Hope you’re having a great week too.
