Right now is my favourite time of year. The warmer days have arrived, holidays are on the horizon, and the first of the summer sales have arrived.

When it comes to discount shopping, it can be easy to get drawn in by slashed prices, without considering if the piece has a place in our wardrobes. Trust me, I've fallen for a hefty discount before, just to be left with a new item that is hard to style, or doesn't suit my personal taste. Having learnt my lesson, I now approach any sales moment with a clear motive. And right now, the only thing I'm interested in is stocking up on summer linen buys for less.

With a heatwave underway and plenty more bright moments ahead, I know that linen pieces are a smart sales purchase. Airy, light and breathable are all words associated with the fabric, making them ideal additions for the current season. Lucky for us, the sales have come through, offering a plethora of high-quality linen pieces in timeless designs and silhouettes that would feature on my wish list even if they weren't reduced.

Whether you're searching for the perfect tailored linen trousers, or a throw-on dress with a lightweight feel, these are the best linen buys in the summer 2025 sales.
