White After Labor Day

Jacket: J.Crew // Shirt: Calypso St. Barth (similar) // Jeans: Paige // Flats: Tieks // Purse: Reed Krakoff // Sunglasses: Prada // Earrings: Asha // Bracelets: David Yurman // Watch: Michele // Ring: David Yurman
I’ve never really been a rule-breaker, but when it comes to fashion, breaking rules is quite fun. Enter exhibit A, the ever taboo ‘white after labor day’. Maybe it’s my growing up in the Southwest, but if you ask me, I am a firm believer that white is OKAY after Labor Day. I mean c’mon, when temps are still flirting with triple digits, it’s definitely okay to continue wearing white. Plus, I’m a fan of winter white too like this gorg Rachel Zoe sweater. 
On another note, wanted to share this great post by local Houston gal and a friend of mine and blogger, Kathleen Jennings, behind the amaze BeautyNow app (if you haven’t heard of it, download it now… you won’t regret it) and Beauty Now blog – Kathleen’s post reevaluates the tinted moisturizer and shares some great tips behind the good and the bad. Check it out, asap!

    I totally agree that white is okay after Labor Day- especially with something as timeless as stripes! I think I’m putting mine away for a few weeks since I’ve worn them so much all summer, but I can’t wait to break them out in early October with cozy sweaters and cute flats 🙂

    I am loving white after Labor Day. I just wore white denim on my blog today! I have this whole outfit and I can’t wait to try it out on a cooler day. Cute!
