WHITE SUITS

Learn How to Wear a White Pantsuit!

What is sexier than a woman in a classic black pantsuit? A woman who struts her stuff in a white suit! While black is classy and sophisticated, white brings out a whole new flavor for any woman. White can make a woman feel sexy and look effortlessly chic!

HOW TO WEAR A WHITE SUIT: Make it your own

Create a look that feels right for you by wearing a white suit with the appropriate accessories. If you are more conservative, then pair the suit with neutral tones or with gold and silver hues. If you want to make the look a little funkier, tease it up with a bold statement by wearing bright colors on your feet, around your neck or even in your hair. You can even work in a brightly colored or jeweled clutch to really brighten up the outfit.

HOW TO WEAR A WHITE SUIT: Add some color

A bold printed top or vibrant color shirt underneath the suit jacket is always a great way to pop some color, however if you are feeling daring, you can always skip an undershirt altogether. Just make sure that you keep the jacket closed at all times, and there is nothing popping out. You just want to show your neckline and part of the top of your chest, not your entire cleavage area. If these options don’t work with you, simply wear a white shirt underneath the jacket to keep the white working. You can’t go wrong wearing white on top of white. For a hint of color, wear your white suit with a brightly colored clutch.

Alternatives to Wearing a Suit

We have seen men wearing white suits over the years, but perhaps as a woman, wearing a white suit really just isn’t your thing. That’s OK; there are other options you can wear while still keeping up with the white trend. Instead of wearing a suit jacket stick with just a dressy white tank with suit pants or even just a white tunic. Looking for something a little sexier? Wear your white dress pants with a white vest to show off your wild side. And if all else fails ladies, just stick with your classy little white dress instead. That will surely always be a big hit.

When to Wear White

You should wear white anytime you want to feel carefree, but make sure to look extremely put together. A white pantsuit is not for a lunch date but it can be worn during the day if you are going to a really glamorous party. It should be worn when you have a fancy event to attend and you just don’t want to wear black! Wear a white suit when you want to kick up your wardrobe and really stand out from the crowd. So get your white outfit together and go to your work’s dinner party. You will look confident, fierce and completely collected. What else would a woman want from her wardrobe?!
