When winter white is worn right it has stunning results. Simply follow these key steps to ensure you are working the white this winter.
Always dress for the season. Pair this Chloe dress at Net-A-Porter with opaque black tights and black shoes.
Choose the right texture. Avoid fluid summer fabrics like chiffon, not only will you look cold you will be and freezing yourself in the name of fashion is not stylish! Instead opt for cashmere, wool, tweed, cable knit or angora. I discovered this Valentino white wool-cashmere blend cable knit jumper, at Farfetch.com. Wear over skiny leather pants or for a more sophistcated option team with a tweed pencil skirt and ankle boots.
Opt for a shade off-white, for example cream or ivory. Leave the bright white to summer.
If you feel self-concious wearing white, add depth with a chocolate accessory. Not only will this reinforce the season it will also make you feel more comfortable.
