I have a question to ask you today, it's about something I've been pondering over for a while.
Would you wear white jeans In the Winter? My answer for years would have been an obvious No!
However, I seem to be changing my mind! - you see I've seen this trend so often in recent months, but have never had the nerve to wear it, mainly for fear of getting it dirty in our not-so-dry, mucky weather.
One look in particular I've been musing over is the all white look. I figured as I was going to wear my white jeans in the winter months I might as well go the whole hog and try this one out. To my surprise I really like it! I'm thinking I'll still be picking and choosing when I'll wear this trend, and now I like the look, I'll happily choose it again.
It did seem strange wearing white jeans in cold weather, but actually enjoyed putting them on and feeling warm in them. I would usually wear them in summer months, but they tend to make me all hot and sticky and somewhat uncomfortable! However, none of that at the weekend, I'm converted!
My skinny jeans from Matalan were really my only choice for this look, a didn't want to wear either straight leg or boot cut options because I knew they would be dragging in the wet stones and sand, and the muddy paths and grass.
Fitting at the perfect length to meet my booties this was just how I wanted them to look. I picked a plain white shirt with super double cuffs and wide collar - over this I wore a plain white jumper, slightly shorter to reveal the scooped hemline of my shirt. I suppose I have cheated with the tan boots, but I felt that was the nearest neutral option
Cute double cuff feature on this shirt from TK Maxx, I turned it over the cuff of my jumper, quite like this look, and I may have to try with a different coloured jumper in the future.
Breaking the all white theme with this scarf I've had for ages, totally by chance it matches really well with the beach backdrop.
Can you tell by the look on my face I really wanted to sit down? Although I really didn't think a nice browny/green line would go well on the back of my white jeans! Ha ha ha.
Another of my many TK Maxx bargain bags - this Osprey stunner was a fraction of the price, always comes in handy and is sometimes 'borrowed' by my daughters. A crossover bag is just so helpful when out shopping, I'm a tactile person, and love being able to feel the clothes, certain fabrics I know by feeling that they won't, hang right or feel good on - I can't bear anything that clings to me, itches me or scratches me! Does anyone agree with me on that?

Have you ventured out in white jeans this winter? Or are they an 'only for summer' item?
Please stop by tomorrow - because I'm posting my before and after Irresistible Me Hair Extensions blog, I'm so excited to show you all.
Bye for today. x

Many thanks Andrea, I was really pleased with the result! Such a glorious day, and the photos have come out so well. Thanks for stopping by and I too wish you a great week. x
DeleteIt is so fun to "break" the rules and wear white in the colder months!! We just did an entire series on it on the blog, and it was one of my faves!!

It sure is Jodie! I loved your post on all white too. x
DeleteHi Jacqui, I'm more a white jeans in Spring person. I just can't quite relate them to our British dull weather and short winter days. You chose a nice bright day there which helped to make it work. They go beautifully with your brown boots and bag. I've never thought of TK Maxx for bags. I must look tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteYes I was so lucky with the weather, and will definitely have to choose when to wear them. Oh TK Maxx is my favourite bag shop - hope you find a bargain, then you can show it on my blog. x
DeleteSuper white outfit, great with your dark hair. You look over pretty in your choice.
ReplyDeleteI challenged myself to wear them last autumn. White needs some good natural light, something we are generally short of but you've hit lucky with all that sunshine! Great outfit, great photos.
Oops, "over pretty" should read very pretty!
DeleteThanks so much Mary. I was very lucky to get some good weather shots! Today is rather dreary so would make awful shots. Thanks you Mary you make me blush. x
DeleteYou look amazing. I noticed Jodie doing the all white thing on her blog and I've seen a few other bloggers wearing their white jeans with boots and so on. It simply works and it makes me think of spring and summer. My turn to try it, I think. Thanks for sharing! - Amy

Amy, you're so kind. x I saw Jodie's blog too. Makes such a change in winter! Yes I can't wait to see what you put together. x
DeleteI think they look great - but like you said they might not always be the most practical, but then they're not in the summer either. Popping over from Laurie's celebrating style
ReplyDeleteThanks for you kind words Stephanie, and I'm so pleased you stopped by. I'll be popping to your blog as well.
DeleteYou look great in this all white look! I'd love to wear white jeans but I know I'd get them dirty within 30 seconds! Beautiful photo location.

Oh yes Emma, that's what I was worried about too. Lucky for me they were kept clean, I bet I'll be pushing my luck in when I wear them again! x Thanks for commenting and stopping by. x
