You simply cannot beat great wardrobe basics and this Autumn set from sustainable brand Má + Lin is the perfect duo that will work hard in your wardrobe this season. Plus, it is mindful towards the environment championing slow fashion and a slower pace. Yes it is linen (a low waste, biodegradable planet friendly fabric) but it does indeed keep you cool in summer and toasty warm in winter! It’s a natural insulator and retains your body heat, making it a great pick for layered outfits. I had the shorter version in summer (see my blog post on it here) and got so many people asking where it was from, I was so happy to see them bring out an Autumn version.
I’m wearing the Maya Trousers and Roxanne Blouse in black, size large. It would also make an excellent Christmas gift and I have a 15% off code with EMMAP15EXCL.
It’s super comfy - the wide leg trousers have an elasticated waistband and the relaxed fit top can be worn with the buttons at the front or back, open like a jacket or layered up. This set is pure effortless simplicity with a side of Parisian chic. I had a play around with some styling ideas for it to share with you… let me know what you think!
Wear in a casual way - here I have simply thrown on my old Kate Sheridan Gilet and my Moi London teddy Mary Janes for an easy everyday look. You could even layer a rollneck underneath on a super cold day and swap in wool socks and Converse high tops.
A pop of red is the trick of the season to instantly update your looks! This red Seasalt Cornwall Cardigan is a nice contrast against the black and I have added some fun bow slides and a pre-loved Charlotte Olympia cat bag to make it more playful.
You could also swap in a kitten heel here which works nicely with the wide leg of the trouser for more of an evening/ party look.
The Roxanne Blouse can be worn with the buttons at the back or front. I love the little vintage inspired wooden buttons, you could also unbutton them to wear with a cami so it feels more like a jacket.
I’ve added bright red platform heels and my Shrimps bag for a fun Christmas look.
This cropped Aligne Blazer makes the relaxed set feel a bit smarter and more pulled together.
