ALL IN THE DETAILS: Whimsical Whites

I know those of you who follow fashion rules will not agree with this statement, but white is a color that can be worn at all times of the year. Yes, that means even after Labor Day. This stylish Fashionista is playing by the rules regardless of your opinion, but I am here to tell you some rules are meant to be broken. Because it’s summer it’s always nice to look for pieces that resemble lace and delicate textiles as opposed to the chunky knits we saw this past winter. This Fashionista’s top works for a day with friends or as a beach cover-up.

Summer calls for versatile pieces like this one because they can be styled so many different ways without much fuss. The lace detail allows the top to work for day or night when paired with the appropriate pants and shoes. This Fashionista also incorporated the white into her makeup, which also works as an eye brightener (remember that when classes roll back around!) This can also be done with any white eye shadow. If you plan on spending the day in a pool or by the ocean, you’ll want to use waterproof eyeliner for some extra staying power.

How To: Want to try this classic color out this summer? Look for loose fitting pieces that will allow you to breathe in the summer heat. If you can, look for garments with lace details and either pair it with a darker pant or go all-out with white bottoms.
