Choose flesh colored undergarments to wear with white clothing. Wear undergarments that are close to the color of your skin. This will help to create a clean, crisp look, without the unpleasant lines that can appear if white is worn under white.

2
Add a touch of color when wearing white. Wear colorful pieces of accessories such as a scarf, a belt or jewelry. Complement your outfit by wearing colors such as corals, bright pink or orange. Also, adding jewelries such as turquoise, gold or other colorful gems will create a trendy, classic look.

Consider wearing white on only certain parts of your body. White reflects light, therefore, it can make certain areas of the body look larger than they are. Break up the pieces of white clothing on areas such as your thighs, hips or chest. Wear colors other than white on those areas.

4
Wear boldly colored or neutral shoes when wearing white. Colored or neutral shoes will create a leaner, longer leg look. White shoes, when worn with white clothing, can make your feet appear larger.
