W is for Winter White

Snowy hues can be worn no matter what the mercury says, darlings! In fact, it's even okay to wear white jeans after Labor Day!

What to buy?
Of course, a white cashmere sweater, an ivory tuxedo jacket, a crisp button-down oxford shirt, and a sleek pair of white cords or jeans are always in order!
But why not add a winter white frock to your autumn repertoire this year, and perhaps an ecru accessory or two?
