Pastel Linen Shirts

Enter the soothing world of pastel linen shirts

When you are building your wardrobe, there are some absolute essentials – like for instance, you need to have a classic white shirt and black trousers. Similarly, you need to segregate between the formals and casuals; while some clothes need to be suitable for the office and other formal occasions, there need to be some clothes, which are great for those casual outings. Same goes for colours – while you will need neutral colours like white, black, and beige for sure, you will also need an assortment of darks and lights. And when you are looking for light colours, nothing beats pastel linen shirts for men!

What counts as men's linen pastel shirts

Now, before you jump and pick the first men's linen pastel shirts that you see in our virtual aisles, allow us to give you some information on what comprises pastel colours.

Simply put, pastel colors are soft, muted shades, which can be best described as soothing and light. They are normally recognised by their delicate and gentle appearance. Here are some of the most popular pastel colours:

• Light shades of pink, such as pale pink and light coral would come under pastels – while pale pink can also be called baby pink, coral is a more combination of light shades of pink and orange. Another pastel colour in the same colour wheel would be peach.
• Lighter shades of blue, such as light blue and powder blue are also great pastel options. From the way the sky looks on a clear day to the traditional blue used at baby showers, these are suited for formal and casual wear.
• If we were to look at the purple colour spectrum, the pastels here would be lavender and lilac – both are muted colours, but while lavender has a hint of grey to it, lilac is more a touch of white!
• Shades like mint green, which evoke a sense of freshness and tranquillity, soft yellow almost the colour of butter and light grey can also be considered pastel colours.
