White Jeans After Labor Day, The Controversy and Debate

So summer is winding down and Labor Day weekend is right around the corner. With that comes family vacations, last summer bbqs, goodbye to summer camp and the ever popular question, “Do I pack away my white jeans until next summer or keep them around a little longer?” Most would answer hastily that wearing white after Labor Day is a “DON”T” Well guess what we here at the Style Duo say…”Wearing white after Labor Day is a major DUO!!” And here’s why…..

1. We believe in the unexpected when it comes to dressing. Let’s face it, go to a trendy restaurant in the middle of July and EVERY girl is wearing white jeans with a sexy top. But check out that restaurant in September….not a one is wearing white. This is the BEST time of year to style to your own beat. And this time don’t wear the usual slinky top; instead pair your white jeans with a colorful cardigan or maybe a silk top with a scarf and ankle boots. Edgy, chic and most importantly unexpected.

2. There are so many great white dress options that look chic and cool in the fall. Just buy them in a bit thicker and warmer fabrics. Tweed, heavier silks, and light cashmere are all great options.

3. White looks great with a tan but it also looks great with shiny fall hair and darker, autumnal makeup. We love the crimson lips they are showing this season and with white fashions, you will be beautiful and sexy, ala Marilyn Monroe!

4. Nothing says chic better than a white pant suit. This look is perfect for fall when you are still feeling easy breezy like summer but also feeling a little cool when the temperatures start to drop. Since you probably were too hot to wear yours in the summer, we say what are you waiting for? Get in that suit for fall and feel fabulous!

But don’t wear white sandals after the summer. Store those until next summer rolls around. This look will never cut it into the Fall. No exceptions to that rule!!
