I recently headed on a long weekend staycation to the UK countryside and, because of train travel, I could only really take one overnight bag with me. As someone who is a notorious over-packer, having to slim down an edit of outfits to fit into one bag seemed impossible, but I managed to create some looks that could take me from day to evening with just a few key pieces. My best luggage addition was New Look's White Linen-Blend Wide Leg Trousers, £33.

99, which I ended up wearing on repeat to a surprising amount of compliments. They were also a great choice given the current heatwave, and protected me from the sun while also keeping me cool. The chic trousers are crafted from a lightweight linen blend , giving you that breezy, comfortable feel we all crave in the heat.

The relaxed fit and full-length wide leg design make them perfect for any occasion, whether you’re heading to a brunch or just lounging around. And in a crisp white colour, they’re super easy to style with anything from a casual tee to a dressy blouse. The mid-rise, paperbag waist is also not only trendy but also super flattering, cinching your waist in the best way possible.

Plus, the concealed fastening keeps everything looking sleek and polished. And the best part? The detachable tie belt and belt loops give you options to play around with your look. These trousers are the perfect addition to your wardrobe, offering endless outfit possibilities while keeping you cool and chic all summer long.
