We love gardening because it's a good way to release our stress and restore our spirits. Plus, the more comfortable and suitable clothing you wear, the longer time you'd love to spend in maintaining your plot. So wearing the right clothing can really make a big difference! Today we are rounding up 3 detailed gardening clothes tips for you so that your outfits can both be functional and fashionable. Now here we go! 

1. Fabric 

A. Linen / Cotton Linen / Ramie 

When it comes to gardening clothes, flax clothing is a must. Clothes made of linen, cotton linen, or ramie can ensure you to move comfortably and freely. The fiber has properties that wick moisture away from your body, giving you a breathable and airy feeling when you are digging or grappling with thorns. In addition, compared to other fabric, flax clothing are easier to clean when they are stained with mud, dirt, or oil. 

B: Cotton

As one of the natural fabrics, cotton clothes are soft, breathable, and skin-friendly, which also have the ability to control moisture. Consider those cotton clothes blended with spandex that allows you to bend, squat, and stretch since they are elastic.

C. Modal

With its lightweight, stretchy, soft, water-absorbent, and breathable nature, the modal has proved that it can be an eco-conscious textile option for gardening, sports, and home. 

2. Must-Have Staples 

A. T-shirt 

A T-shirt is a great option for gardening since it can go well with almost everything, from jeans, leggings, pants, to overalls. Plus, when the weather gets cold, they can be easily layered with an outerwear to keep you warm. The tip is looking for the oversized T shirt to give yourself more room to stretch and opting for light colors, such as white, beige, or apricot to distract the sun's hot ray. 

B. Overalls or Jumpsuits 

Bib overalls or jumpsuits are ideal to keep your gardening clothes fashionable and practical. On the one hand, the numerous tool pockets are perfect for stashing seeds, phone, and other essentials. Even better, these one-piece selections are quite durable through sweat, dirt, and rain and can protect you from being hurt while fertilizing the plants or flowers with the sharpest thorns. 

On this other hand, they are easy to level up your styles even pairing with common outfits, like t-shirts, shirt, hoodie, sweatshirt, etc.

C. Jeans or Gardening's Pants 

Since denim is durable and has a certain thickness, a pair of jeans is another good option to cover your legs and protect you from any scratches and cut when you are going to prune. 

Alternatively, you can also go for the gardening pants, reinforced at the knees for dedicated weeders, and equipped with pockets for all your essential tools.

D. Apron

To keep your outfits clean when you are heading to a garden or cook, an apron is a great assistant. They always come in many colors and patterns, which will surely give you're a good mood and take you well past your gardening afternoon. 

E. Gloves

They are absolutely the gardening's essential to save you from the sharpest thorns and protect your manicure. Also, they add a bit of warmth in the freezing winter.

F. Hat 

A hat with a wide brim offers further sun protection—keeping your face and neck shaded from the sun to avoid any sunburn that may occur. 

G. Boots

There are plenty of options when picking up gardening shoes. But I would recommend the flat ankle boots for extra comfort and protection, and versatile enough for diggings and planting. You can also try on the rain boots if showers are possible. 

3. Something Important 

A. Pull long hair into a ponytail 

B. Protect yourself from the sun, especially in the hot summer. 

C. Drink more water or energy drinks to replenish your energy and avoid heatstroke.
