Fashion "do's" and "don'ts" seem to change from decade to decade, but below are the white guidelines I choose to live by. :) Plus, my favorite white pants (I can't believe I just used favorite + white + pants all in the same sentence). Shopping links included, of course.

The 123's of White Lines!

1) DO wear white before Memorial Day 2) DO wear white after Labor Day and 3) DON'T wear white at weddings, unless you're the bride (hopefully this is still a classic "don't" for the ladies)!

There are gorgeous "winter white" options that help us keep the light colors alive during the fall and winter months, even though we gravitate to darker, richer tones...so don't feel like you're breaking any rules from September - May. Having said that, there's a good chance I won't be caught wearing much white through the winter, simply because I love sporting black so much. Once I start smelling the Spring air, though, the light and bright colors transition back into my wardrobe. Easter tends to be that marker for me, so I'm sharing my "Sunday best" from this weekend.

I can't say there's ever been a white pant I've been crazy about, but I actually like these skinnies from Old Navy! Definitely my favorite stop for comfortable, quality pants. Mr. Budget likes Old Navy too. :)

Much love xo
