white pants and a cerulean blue topYes, I’m a southern gal and sometimes I’ve just got to be lovin’ something. Today, I’m lovin’ me some white pants! I am just about as crazy about white pants as I am about white blouses. At last count I have 5 pair of straight white pants, not to count another two pair with stripes.

White Pants Add Crispness And Polish

Why do I like them so much? When you add white to an otherwise casual outfit, you elevate your everyday style just a touch. The color white evokes the idea of crispness and polish.cerulean blue top with a mesh back cut-out

I paired my white boyfriend jeans with a cerulean blue top. The back has a v-shaped mesh feature that adds visual interest.white boyfriend jeans, cerulean blue top and stainless jewelry

I paired this otherwise simple outfit with some bolder jewelry pieces. The stone and silver bracelets were handmade by a friend when we lived in Laos. I paired the bracelets with some of my favorite Fossil stainless steel rings and a light blue oversized ring. I am also wearing a Lilly Barrack silver signature ring with a topaz stone.

I decided to add some readers to make it real for this post, since they are typically perched on the top of my head!

I hope this post finds you all enjoying your last week of August. For some of you, warm weather will be but a distant memory in the not-so-distant future. Enjoy the warm days while they last!

      Endless possibilities is right and white is a great neutral color alternative to black. Yes, the back detail and the color really make that top unique. Thanks for stopping by, Jennie!

    You’re right about white being so crisp and polished. The shade of blue is stunning on you.

      Thanks Lorna, vivid colors are great for style and attitude! I take that as a real complement coming from the Colour Queen.
