STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: How To Wear White After Labor Day

The dog days of summer are over and post-Labor Day lifestyle is picking up quickly. As the pre-fall season arises, we are yet again faced with the ever-present fashion rule reminding us that we can’t wear white after Labor Day. However, times have changed, and fashion is all about pushing the boundaries. So never be afraid to take risks and bend the old fashioned rules.

If you’re living in an area where September temperatures that are hardly fall-like it makes perfect sense to continue wearing white. With that said, don’t be so quick to retire your adorable white linen top just yet. Throw on a brown suede motorcycle jacket and your favorite pair of mules to accomplish a more season appropriate outfit.

This Fashionista’s look exemplifies a perfect way to wear white. White jeans can easily be worn year round when paired with complementary items of clothing. Pairing skinny jeans with a white faux leather side-slit top adds a more fall-like flare. To create a less summery white outfit, try adding heavier textures such as, leather and suede. Playing with different fall fabrics can help make an all-white look become more sensible for the cooler weather to come.

By incorporating one statement piece to your outfit, you can easily achieve an edgy vibe. For instance, this Fashionista wears a charcoal colored leather jacket which truly allows her to look to be transitional. Lastly, her black fringe cross body, colorful arrowhead shaped earrings and bootie heels tie everything together.
