White Out

Tuesday, May 03, 2011

My first Bloggers Do It Better entry and... ack! Please ignore my too-short pants with heels (need to add metallic flats to my wishlist!) Otherwise, I really like this outfit. Similar to wearing all black, I find all white to be a great palette for accessorizing with colors. Though, at the same time, I also don't think you'd look under-dressed without adding color. Agree? Disagree? I chose to go with the former with this outfit because I've been loving my Amrita Singh necklace as of late.

top: LOFT (similar)
necklace as belt: Banana Republic (similar)
pants: LOFT (currently sold here)

  1. I like the look of an all-white outfit. It looks so crisp! Your necklace and belt are nice additions that don't overpower. I quite like your top!

  2. I never wore all white before, I just don't buy a lot of white items since its hard to keep clean. I like this look, very different for you! The loft pants are the linen ones right? You got it in regular? How does it fit/feel?

  15. All white totally scares me, for some reason. I think it looks great if you do it right, and I think you did it right here, without a doubt, but I don't know if I could pull it off. Black is just so much more forgiving :)

  16. i LOVE white!!! half of my closet is white lol...and i probably own less than 5 items in black. i think it would pop more if you add a slightly thicker belt? you look so lean and tall :)

  20. Oh man.. There is that necklace! Looking good missy.

  21. Very pretty outfit! Love the pop of color with the necklace. I found it strange to wear just white, so I had to add color. It's just so stark, though I've seen how others did it and it looked nice.

  22. Cee...I don't think the pants are too short at all! Love the white on white w/the pop of turquoise and gold! Purrrrty!!! :D

    And LOL to your last comment about a white skirt - I got a good chuckle..hehhee

    Would love it, if you would stop by and see how a 45+ year old handles “White Out”—you might get a good chuckle anyway! See you there! http://stillblondeafteralltheseyears.com/2011/05/white-out-change-it-up-outfits-modeled-by-women-over-45/

  28. Thank you all for the positive comments :)

    @Jarucha - Yup, the LOFT pants are the linen ones I've been eyeing for awhile. They are actually petites, and the perfect length if I wore flat shoes. The fit feels great through the thighs and legs, so I would imagine the regular versions would be a bit loose in that area, but longer in length (perfect for heels).

    @AubreyOhDang! - Don't own white shoes in my closet, but if I did...... kidding. I would hope I'm savvy enough to not pair them with the outfit ;)

    @Tara - Very true. Black hides all the unflattering parts. Whites? Not so much, but I still can't but help loving it :)

    @Sunshine - Yes! I wish the necklace was longer so I could double (or even tripe up).

    @Pretty, Polished, Perfect. - Your wish is my command :) I should be wearing them the next time I wear these pants. Hopefully soon, if the weather cooperates!

  31. These white LOFT pants look amazing on you. Don't you just love linen pants? I think it's only this season that I truly love them. Also, I think the length is perfect!
