Summer Styling Is In Session. Here’s What We’ll Be Wearing

The versatile pieces you’ll be reaching for all season long.

Paire

Summer styling is all about effortless silhouettes and breathability, but each year, as the season rolls around, I find myself sifting through my closet to no avail, searching for pieces that meet the brief.

Which is why I am particularly excited about the newly released Summer Uniform Collection from Paire, which is redefining the natural fibres we know and love, with a range of versatile pieces designed for year-round wear.

From the perfect button-up that transforms into a wrap top, to the barrel-leg trousers that are equal parts trending and timeless, consider your summer styling class in session, because these are the six pieces we’ll be wearing.

Women’s Linen Wrap-Front Shirt from Paire

Paire Women’s Linen Wrap-Front Shirt, $219

Whether it’s thrown over your swimmers after a dip in the ocean, or worn open on top of your favourite tank, we all know and love the humble linen shirt… but this time, it’s had an upgrade. With a unique side seam and some sneakily placed buttons, you can unlock six different ways to wear just this one piece, quite possibly making it one of the most versatile shirts to exist on the market. My favourite styling option for this piece is the front wrap for a flattering silhouette, but if this isn’t quite right for you, simply wear it as is, or cinch it in slightly at the back for a little more shape.

Women’s Linen Bermuda Shorts from Paire

Paire Women’s Linen Bermuda Shorts, $179

It’s no secret we love a bermuda short around here, so naturally when I spotted this pair in the lineup, I was sold. By design, this pair of shorts offers a more relaxed tailored fit, but with the added adjustable waistband, you can tighten and loosen as suits. This feature really caught my attention, as it offers an additional element of personalisation that you don’t typically see with women’s pants.

Women’s Silk-Cotton Short Sleeve Knit from Paire

Paire Women’s Silk-Cotton Short Sleeve Knit, $179

One of the biggest challenges I face in summer is dressing for the office, and after chatting with my girlfriends, it seems I am not alone, but this silk-cotton knit might just be our saviour. With a fine-gauge knit, it falls in all the right ways, flattering without clinging or hugging. It has also been made to fall at hip-length so you can either tuck it in or wear it out, giving you options for wearing and styling preferences.

Women’s ReBrew Boat Neck T-shirt from Paire

Paire Women’s ReBrew Boat Neck T-shirt, $59

For those slower days when you can’t put too much thought into the outfit but need something comfortable to mooch around in, allow me to introduce you to this tee. Cut with a boat neckline and slight oversized fit, this piece gets some serious brownie points for letting you look like you put way more effort into the outfit than you actually did. Plus, it’s ultra-soft to the touch so you can take it from day to night with ease.

Women’s Linen Barrel-Leg Trousers from Paire

Paire Women’s Linen Barrel-Leg Trousers, $219

In case you missed it, the barrel leg is back, and this time it’s here to stay, so if you’ve been hesitant to dip your toes into the style, this pair of trousers is the perfect introduction. Also offering the same adjustable waistband as the shorts, this is the versatile pair of pants you’ll be reaching for all season long.
