Wearing white is so classy and beautiful! It is crisp, fresh and feminine. Today we are featuring all of our favorite white tops, bottoms, dresses etc. in an edit to make your summer fun and bright.
WHITE FASHIONS IN HISTORY
When, where, how, and what time of year to wear white has always been a major debate. Even as a child I remembered we never wore white until after Easter. The tradition is assumed to have started in the 1930’s when the wealthier wore white to symbolize that the warmer seasons were happening. It meant lawn games were happening and more relaxation would happen.
My favorite tidbit about white fashions in history is how women used it in politics! Very interesting story dates back to 1908 involving the Women’s Social and Political Union (the leading force behind the suffrage movement). These strong women rallied across the United Kingdom and wore white (for purity), green (for hope), and purple (for dignity). In America white, purple and gold are the colors for the National Women’s Party. Green and purple or purple and gold, are acceptable for smaller gatherings but for the larger ones white is the preference. Thousands of women protest in white as a means to appear more feminine and gain respect. Being a woman I find the color to not only be beautiful, I find it empowering!

White bottoms pair well with EVERYTHING! They also are easy to dress up or down. These bottoms are stain resistant and super slimming!
Jacket Edit
Depending on where you live you may not need a jacket during Summer. But, I prefer to always have a jacket on me since I tend to get cold in restaurants, grocery stores, movie theaters, etc. This white denim jacket by Chico’s is super cute and STAIN RESISTANT! What more could a girl ask for?
