white hot.

Though I can hardly believe it, the calendar will roll over to June tomorrow! Where is 2012 going?! After a mild New England winter, I've found myself jumping to my summer wardrobe much sooner than normal. With warmer temps on the brain, I have started reaching for the whites in my wardrobe. It's only appropriate that tomorrow's "white hot" Friday's Fancies is focused on this simple yet beautiful shade.

From what I discovered across the blogosphere and tumblr, white works best when paired with a pop of color or a hint of metallic. Gold and red happen to be common threads through many of the photos above. Both of those hues, along with tan accessories, help to bring out the brightness of any white. I haven't rocked a white dress since my wedding day, but outfits like these make me want to change that. Has your opinion changed about white like mine has?

Enjoy your Thursday, friends--I can't wait to see how you rock the white for Friday's Fancies tomorrow!

  13. I just got a white lace dress from Target and I love it! But I'm particularly fond of the all white beach look in the middle - so chic and slightly French. Might just have to try it out!

  20. I love white! It's such a statement color on it's own, and as soon as you pair it with any other color your outfit suddenly has this huge amount of life to it. Lovelovelove. But I'm so messy that I get scared to wear white haha. Instead I pin tons of photos of white outfits and live vicariously through those women ;) Thanks for linking up!

  21. I've found that each year I start wearing my white earlier and earlier. Especially white jeans, I have so much fun planning outfits around them. And I couldn't agree more, I'm obsessed with the look of gold and brights with white. I hope you're having a great week :)

  22. Simply stated, white and I do not play nice together. Not at all. However, I do absolutely love it. And my go to pieces for summer are my white tanks paired with tan or khaki shorts and my swarvoski crystal flip flops or BCBG wedges if I want to dress it up a bit. And let's not forget a crisp white short sleeve dress shirt paired with a bright pair of capris for a day at the office - typically paired with my wedges. :)
