If you’ve seen or heard the term “winter white” recently and you’ve wondered how it differs from regular white, allow me to explain. (I’m a #fashion blogger, so I know about these things.)
~White is the color of linen pants, whereas winter white is the color of a cable knit sweater.
~White is what a June bride wears, whereas winter white is what a December bride wears.
~White is the color of fresh daisies, whereas winter white is the color of freshly fallen snow.
~White says “I love Paris in the springtime,” whereas winter white says “I love skiing in Aspen.”
In other words, white and winter white…are the same f#@&ing color. If you want to wear winter white, just wear something white in the winter. These are the same jeans I wore several times during the summer with bright colors and breezy tops, and now I’m wearing it with plaid and quilted jackets. Winter white. I’m so trendy.

P.S. The beautiful, stately scene behind me is the campus of my alma mater, Indiana University, the most awesome school in the whole world. IU looks equally beautiful in white AND winter white.

Thank you for being so fricken funny + real. White is white. I wore my summer white jeans yesterday, therefore they are not winter white jeans.

Great outfit, I love the scarf. Silver shoes are killer in the Winter, such a perfect color for the cold.
I love breaking fashion rules! Love the white jeans during winter. I might have to take a little inspiration from this one 🙂
