Contrary to what you may have learned from your mother, it’s now okay to wear white jeans after Labor Day. These are a clean, crisp choice that can work all year round if you pair them with the right shoes, top and accessories. So slip on your white jeans and don’t even worry about the month or the season.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • White jeans
  • Baby doll top
  • White T-shirt
  • Flip flops
  • Black sweater
  • Boots
  • Burgundy velvet blazer
  • White long sleeve top
  • Brown sweater vest
  • Navy and white striped top
  • Navy sweater coat

Step1
Wear white jeans for day with a flowy, baby doll top and flip flops when the weather is warm. This is a nice, modern look that can go almost anywhere.
Step2
Switch out the top for a white T-shirt for an all white affect. This will work well with gold or bronze jewelry and shoes.
Step3
Give your white jeans more of a sophisticated edge by adding a black sweater and black boots. Black and white color palettes are very “in.”
Step4
Transition your white jeans into fall by adding a white long sleeve top and a brown sweater vest and boots. This adds more substance to the look.
Step5
Make white jeans work in winter by wearing them with a burgundy velvet blazer. The contrast of the deep jewel tone against white will add a festive touch.
Step6
Usher in spring with nautical style by selecting a navy and white striped top and a long navy sweater coat with white jeans.
Step7
Make white jeans work at night year-round by selecting a halter top and a sequin sweater shrug with strappy high heels.

Tips & Warnings

  • Look for white jeans in a variety of cuts. You can find skinny leg styles, wide leg options or boot cuts in most stores today.
  • Realize that not all whites are the same. You can look for white jeans with more yellow or tan in the shade, or opt for the texture of white cords, to vary the look.
  • Always follow the washing instructions on white jeans to keep them crisp and clean.
  • Avoid washing white jeans with other colored items that could run.
  • Check your rear view to be sure you don't have panty lines to mar the look!
