There are some days when you just want to dress all in white. I love colour, don’t get me wrong (you’ll see that for Monday’s Fab40s post!), but occasionally, it’s just nice to be neutral. Certain neutrals and me tend not to get on though. Put me in beige and GAWD…just don’t put me in beige…pleeeease! I look horrendous in it. BLEURGH. Put me all in white though, and I’m happy.
I can just about get away with cream, but I just prefer shades of white or darker neutrals like camels, taupes, khakis and browns. The only time you’ll find me in beige is when I can wear a colourful scarf next to my face to counteract the hideousness of it lol. I do envy those women out there that look absolutely fabulous in all the neutrals (Laurie, you’re one of them!) but, alas, I am not one of those women. I am lucky though, that I can wear almost any other colour phew! However, things do change as you age so I might find the next time I put on a yellow dress, I might hate it lol! Such is life.
But today, I’m all in white. Nothing is new—the jeans are from Massimo Dutti, (as are the moccasins), my linen shirt is from Mango and the handbag is from Secret Sales. And all my jewellery were gifts from either my mother-in-law or from friends. It’s a very simple outfit, the sort of thing I’d wear to go shopping, but contrary to what I said about the weather on Wednesday, it’ll soon be too warm to wear my moccasins (I can’t bear having too hot feet)! The weather has since warmed up and seems much more like summer now. Although, evenings are un-seasonally chilly (just the way I like it!).
So, what have you been up to this week? Have you been wearing neutrals? Or bright summery colours? Or even beiges? Let me know what you like to wear, and then please link up all your fab posts to the Neverending Style Link-up, below.
My favourite last week was Mireille from Chez Mireille who styled a fabulous pair of red trousers from day to night, and she looks gorgeous in both looks! Go check it out!
