Rules are meant to be broken. Wear white during the winter. And wear it well.
For the Refined Lady:
Guess Durado Carryall ($42, macys.com)
Your fall and winter go-to back is more than likely black or brown. We get it. But, you shouldn't be afraid to switch it up.
For the Sophisticated:
Topshop Modern Tailoring Tux Trouser ($100, topshop.com)
White pants can be surprisingly wearable for all sizes… when they're a trouser cut. Invest in these pants. Make sure the lining is heavy (covering all traces of imperfections).
For the Head Turner:
Miss Selfridge Boned Shoulder Body Con Dress ($70, missselfridge.com)
Move over little black dress, right now it's all about the LWD (Little White Dress). Put your curves on display in a body con number this New Year's Eve. The embellished shoulder means no need to worry about excessive accessories. Remember, keep it simple on the bottom.
For the Classic Woman:
Emporio Armani Double Breasted Jacket ($89, yoox.com)
Throw it over a black pencil skirt or go casual with rich, dark denim.
For the Risk Taker:
Aldo Essi Pumps ($35, aldoshoes.com)
White shoes: you either love 'em or hate 'em. But, a classic leather, pointy toe pump keeps white this staple from looking too young or cheesy.
