My new color this year is white. I know it’s not that radical or anything, but white is a great color for most skin types, and paired the right way, it can give you that classic look, no matter what the occasion. A versatile white dress in summertime looks clean and cool; a white coat in winter beats the doldrums of winter and reminds us of snow.
Think about adding a little more white to your wardrobe if you assess your closet and notice you have a lack of white mixed in among your other colors.
Here are some of my favorite white pieces I own.
This Boho dress from Nordstrom is one of my favorites. Shoes are from Jessica Simpson at DSW. This photo was taken to promo my upcoming visit to Oxford for a book signing. Can’t wait. Also can’t wait for my hair to grow a little. It’s a bit too short!
These white pants from White House Black Market are my favorite summer pants. Love them. Top is from Anthropologie. If you get some time this summer, I hope you enjoy a good book. The one I’m reading here is called The Lost Wife by Alyson Richman.
This off-white bare-shoulder blouse is from Charming Charlie. I wear it all the time with jeans.
This winter white coat was my best score last year. I love it, and the combination of black and white always looks classic.
