Holiday wear doesn’t get much more holiday-themed than Next’s Blanket Stitch Embroidered Relaxed Long Sleeve Shirt With Linen. Embroidered all over with a Greece-themed print, it sports the words ‘Mykonos’ and ‘Santorini’, along with Greek vases and sea life.
The shirt costs £35 and comes in seven different colours and patterns. The shirt is made from 90 per cent cotton and 10 per cent linen, and is designed to have a relaxed fit.
Alternatively, you can try the Marisa Linen Blouse, which is down to £65 from £99 at Phase Eight. The shirt is made of 15 per cent linen and has blue floral details.
Elsewhere, there’s the Joe’s Embroidered Shirt for £55 at Joe Brown’s. The white shirt has quirky embroidery throughout and wooden buttons.
Back at Next, their shirt has 4.5 stars from 15 reviews. One person said: “Lovely great quality shirt. I love the colour, it’s great for my spring summer work wardrobe and I can wear it casually too.”
Another person wrote: “I recently bought this beautiful blouse, it looks gorgeous on, stunning, lovely design.”
“Ordered this in a couple of sizes down as I didn’t want a too loose shirt,” a third said. “Absolutely love it. Took it away on holiday and wore it in so many different ways. Unbuttoned over a suntop, tucked into trousers and knotted at the front with shorts. So comfortable too.”
A handful of people complained the sleeves were too long. One person wrote: “This is a pretty lightweight shirt. A bit disappointed at the weight of the material but it fits well and will be worn over a tee-shirt anyway!”
But another happy shopper wrote: “Perfect summer and holiday shirt. Purchased recently as a lovely spring/summer shirt with beautiful edging and buttons. Sized down and still roomy.”
