WHITE JEANS, ARE YOU WEARING THEM?

The wonderful staple of white jeans . . .

When it comes to spring and summer, one of the best staples to pull out of your closet is a pair of white jeans.

So why is it, that I continue to have a love-hate relationship with this staple?

I’m kind of guessing it’s due in part to my height, I see all these fun ways of wearing white jeans and then I put them on and I’m not so happy about the outcome. I first purchased a pair of white cropped jeans (jcrew) and although I like the easy fit, they just don’t do much for my small height. When I do pull them out, they tend to call for a fun casual style.

Pairing them with boot shoes (sperry) . . .

And a denim shirt (gap) . . .

Gives me the look I’m after.

This season I decided to try the higher waisted skinny jeans (Joe Jeans) to see if they would add some secret lengthening.

And an all white slate (sweater Ann Taylor-purchased last year but they have some fun ones this season as well) (gold necklace-banana republic) . . .

It gives me a whole new white jean look.

I’m thinking the jcrew pair might make it into Tori’s wardrobe.

What about you, are white jeans a staple in your wardrobe?

Linking up with Catherine for #iwillwearwhatilike series, this week’s theme is Head-To-Toe One Color (I simply had to add some tan sandals instead of white)

    I really like the all-white look, leggings are great for you and sweater is cute. A spectacularly bright look. I love your shoes.

    Oh woman, you give me courage. I bought similar white skinnies. (Published a photo on my No Fear of Fashion Facebook timeline.) But I am very hesitant about wearing them with a jacket or anything just covering the bum. They look so much like a legging on me. A white legging… !!! I get horizontal folds on my thighs. You haven’t got that. Very difficult subject. I tried to get similar ones without the “stretch marks” but as soon as they are not stretchy enough, I have too much material around the crotch as my hips are so small. The seamstress says she cannot alter that. Bummer.
    Back to you. Enough complaining.
    You, my lady, look stunning in these skinnies. As Suzanne said: a hot momma. As always I love your sandals.
    I also like the cropped version although I get what you mean. With this length of shirt and with those shoes I think you got the proportions right. Beautiful necklace!

    I have an uneasy truce with my white jeans as well! I know they’re not the most flattering on my pear shape, but they look just perfect with some things. Anyway dear, YOU look FAB! Loving the all white and those amazing high heeled sandals! Thanks so much for sharing with Fun Fashion Friday!

    That makes it a perfect trio of agreement: hot mama!!
    Who can possible what those Joe Jeans at any age, and look so great! ( perfect legs + muscle tone = ah-maz-ing 🙂 Love both looks, the second is super of course , and sexy in a quiet way, the first is my favorite though, it seems to be more relaxed, more you. But I am so glad you wore both pair!
    I love white jeans , they are in rotation now, but neither fit me perfectly. OH well! such troubles , right?
    I love the denim top in outfit one, and the color of the shoe, and I love the al white look you created in the second look, too.. Very polished . Would love to see the second pair with a jacket, I think..
    Have great day sweet Trina!

    I LOVE white jeans! I can’t ever seem to stop wearing them, no matter what season it is!

    Love the ways you’ve styled yours — especially with those nude sandals. They make such a timeless pairing together!

    Xoxo,
