Another heatwave is approaching, which means we’re back to struggling with what to wear in the scorching temperatures. If you’ve still not perfected your heatwave wardrobe, take a leaf out of Louise Thompson’s style book with a 100% cotton co-ord, which gives you countless styling options whilst keeping cool and comfortable.
Louise has been wearing the Biarritz Beach Textured Cotton Co-Ord from ASOS on repeat this summer, and recently shared with her Instagram followers that it’s now on sale. The co-ord is made up of a shirt and shorts, with the shorts priced at just £14 and the shirt now £16.99 down from £22.

Although most of us tend to sway towards linen to keep cool in the heat, 100% linen can sometimes feel a little thick or heavyweight. So, if you want something breezy and lightweight, then cotton is the way to go – and the ASOS Biarritz Beach Textured Co-Ord is made from 100% cotton.
It has the perfect relaxed silhouette that’ll keep you cool and comfy, with a boxy, oversized button-up shirt with long sleeves which can be rolled up or down depending on how much coverage you want. Meanwhile the shorts have a high elasticated waistband, with wide, loose-fitting legs that feature a curved hem detail for an extra flattering fit.
Louise’s Biarritz Beach Textured Co-Ord comes in black, and whilst that’s not necessarily a summery colour, it does mean it’s versatile and timeless. The beauty of a co-ord is that the styling possibilities are endless, letting you wear it as a ready-made complete outfit, layered with other pieces, or mixed and matched with other pieces in your wardrobe.
You can wear the set together with a pair of chunky sandals or trainers if you’re heading out for the day, and it can be worn fully buttoned up, or open as a layering piece over a vest. You could even throw it on as a swimsuit coverup for sitting around the pool or heading down to the beach – just pair with swimwear, flip flops and an oversized tote bag. You can even pair the shirt with everything from denim shorts to a pair of jeans or wide leg trousers, whilst the shorts are the perfect staple for wearing every day with vests and T-shirts.
If you do prefer linen, Next’s The Set is just £27 and includes both a sleeveless shell top and wide leg trousers, and are made with both linen and cotton in the material composition. You can choose from either navy or cream colourways, and it looks smart enough to wear for work whilst still being cool and casual enough for holidays or days out.
Alternatively, Tu at Sainsbury’s has the Double Cloth Long Sleeve Shirt for £16 and the matching Double Cloth Shorts for £10, which come in a luxe-looking chocolate brown colour, as well as orange, red, black and white options. Both pieces are made from 100% cotton, and have a textured finish which makes them look high end whilst still being cool and comfy.
