THE ICONIC recently challenged me to style AERE’s top 5 linen shirts for my everyday occasions.
A linen shirt is my favourite summer go-to and with Sydney heating up – Bondi is my hometown – there was no hesitation in accepting.
Here are AERE’s top 5 linen shirts, road-tested by yours truly.

1. RUST: LUNCH EVENT

Relaxed, yet still stylish is my M.O. when dressing for an event. AERE’s linen shirt in Rust was perfect with my orange wallet-bag. Both colours added an abundance of warmth to brighten the neutral suit. Although a suit can get quite hot in summer, the linen shirt is the airflow I need to stay cool.

2. NAVY: LIBRARY

Something comfortable is needed so your focus is on the work you have to do. I love using colour-on-colour so AERE’s Navy linen shirt was perfect to match with some 90s-fit blue jeans. Pair it back with a backpack, a sweater to brave the air conditioning, and I’m ready to work!


Not only do these shirts look good, but they are better for our planet. AERE is part of THE ICONIC’s Considered range. Linen is a more sustainable fabric, made using less water & chemicals than conventional materials."
There we have it! 5 shirts, 5 occasions. All of which I hope will provide you with ample styling advice for your linen purchases in the future.
