Vera Linen Blend Shell Top

The underrated benefit of owning a co-ord set? As well as being able to create a head-to-toe look with the matching trousers, the Vera top looks just as good with stuff you already own.

It's also made in a breezy linen blend, and the away-from-the-body shape means there's plenty of natural airflow.
