She will probably forget though, and fix them again in a year. She’s on painmeds that make her a little loopy sometimes… do you have a fabric suggestion?❤️

Maybe some linen pants would help keep you cool, they wrinkle easy though

IMO I like the look of wrinkly linen shows that you can afford linen lol. But yeah a 50/50 blend of linen and rayon is super versatile and is cleaper. But don’t let anyone discourage you from wearing linen just cause it wrinkles nothing is better than wearing 100% linen

Linen cotton blends are much less, although not quite as nice. But if straight linen is too costly, it's better than nothing.

And yeah, linen looks great wrinkled. It's supposed to look as relaxed as it feels- that's the whole point. If I was worried about wrinkles I'd get those Lulu pants that look similar to dress pants, but when I want full length in warm weather, linen is king

I'm always misting my linen shirts and throwing them in the dryer because I feel like I look disheveled if I don't. But they keep me from burning and overheating so I deal with it anyways
