Look stylish even in the hottest temperatures.

Truth: Hot weather can be a nightmare. You get ready for the day, you plan to look cute, and then bam! The heat and humidity smacks you in the face and you end up looking like a sweaty mess in a matter of minutes. But did you know there's an all-natural way to help beat the heat and look stylish? Yup, linen! The fiber is naturally absorbent and dries even faster than cotton, making it ideal in even the hottest conditions. So skip the jeans this summer and opt for the best linen pants for women.

Like the best linen shirts, stylish linen pants should be a wardrobe staple. You can pair them with everything from button-down shirts to casual tees on top and from espadrilles to comfortable flip-flops to white sneakers on the bottom. And because they come in a variety of fits and silhouettes, you can easily choose which one is best for you. Long length, cropped, capri, wide leg, slim leg, and even jogger―whatever you prefer, you will find on this list.

Linen is as appropriate to wear to the office paired with a blazer (especially our trouser pick!) as it is to the beach with a straw hat over your new swimsuit. And in fact, you can wear it right through Labor Day during that transitional weather before it gets too chilly on your legs. So buy now, wear now, and wear later. See? We told you it's a wardrobe must-have!

Leave it to J.Crew to offer a classic, go-to basic that you'll wear over and over again. This wide leg is worn cropped with a comfortable elastic waistband and adjustable tie. It comes in five other pretty colors, too!

For only $20, you can snag a really cute pair of palazzo pants that you'll wear everywhere from the beach to a boardwalk dinner. Choose from 15 different colors, all with the same comfortable elastic waist with adjustable tie.

If you want high quality at an affordable price, check out Quince. The relaxed fit with cropped hem are ultra cool and comfy no matter the weather. This five-star bestseller comes in ten fabulous colors, too!

If you're looking for the perfect crop, we've found it for you! This high-waisted pair has an extra fun detail of a built-in tie belt and comes in both regular and tall lengths.

If wide legs aren't your favorite, go for a tapered pant like this. It looks like a classic pair of chinos but made of a linen/cotton blend instead. It's available in six different colors that look just as cool cuffed as they do uncuffed.

Athleta makes some of the best joggers around, so of course we had to include their linen option! With a semi-fitted silhouette and relaxed, elastic waist, you'll pull these on and get the day going in no time.

If you're heading to the office for an important meeting or have a dressier occasion to attend, these high-rise trousers are the perfect pick. Pair them with a tank and a blazer for inside or a pretty blouse. Throw on a pair of heels and you're all set!

Elastic waist pants are comfy, sure. But ruched waistbands? Now, those are the ultimate in comfort! This pair of palazzos has a wide waistband that will do just the right amount of holding you in but won't squeeze your midsection. We love all six colors!

If you want to go even shorter than a crop but not quite a short, go for a capri! This drapey pair will keep you in casual comfort thanks to the elastic tie-waist and mid-rise fit. Pair with a tee and sandals and you've got an easy everyday outfit.

Oh hey there, cute button hem! With a relaxed yet not-too-wide leg and a comfy elastic waistband, this is an everyday pant made just a little more fun thanks to the added details at the bottom.

Yes, baggy cargos are back in style and yes, you should probably buy a pair. With ties at the waist and the hem, you can easliy customize your fit and look. Plus, the pockets are functional, so you really can tuck away a few things when you're on the go.

A summery wardrobe isn't complete until you add a nautical-inspired stripe. This pair of wide-leg pants looks ultra chic thanks to the tied sash at the waist. All you need is a white tank and you're ready for vacation.

Talk about tropical vibes! We love Lilly Pulitzer for any summer occasion and these linen pants are no exception. With a narrower leg and more fitted silhouette, you'll look instantly put together.

If you're looking for a casually cool pant to wear well into fall, check out this pant from Faherty. It's made of a soft linen blend with a perfectly faded wash that feels seasonless. It's also available in four other super wearable colors.

This modern silhouette is just so fun! It is cropped with a slight flare on the bottom and high-waisted with charming patch pockets at the top. The hardest part is choosing the color: It comes in variety of prints and solids that all feel so special and worth the splurge.
