White now!

As everyone’s favorite noncolor, white has a designated spot in our wardrobe. Compatible with just about any shade and style, a single white piece is enough to make a striking addition to any look.

Using the most versatile whites in fashion, here are five looks that match one’s personality or mood for the day. Which one suits you?

Edgy schoolgirl
Who says a crisp, white button-down is bland and boring? A versatile classic gets an edgy spin with a
faux leather pencil skirt.

Slouch potato
For days when you just want to laze around, be at your comfiest in a white tee, sweat shorts and
warm jacket.

Risk-taker
White jeans can be unforgiving when it comes to fit and stains. But go for it—match a trusty distressed pair with a contrasting black top.

Modern geisha
Channel your Asian roots and don a white kimono inspired top. Pair it with khaki trousers to keep the look modern and relaxed.

Matchmaker
As cream is to coffee and salt is to pepper, a white top worn with a pair of denim culottes is one of this season’s coolest couplings.
