The Misconception About White
DETAILS: WHITE EYELET DRESS (30% OFF CODE: THANKYOU – WEARING SIZE SMALL) || PINK JACKET (30% OFF CODE: THANKYOU – WEARING SIZE XS) || STRIPE SHOES (RUNS SMALL SIZE UP) || CELINE BAG (SIMILAR HERE & BUDGET FRIENDLY HERE) || LIPSTICK
BECKAM: BLUE SHORTS (LOVE THESE – ON SALE) ||WHITE POCKET TEE || CHAMBRAY SLIP ONS
CODY: BLUE GINGHAM SHIRT (COLOR BLUE GINGHAM) || WHITE V-NECK (ONLY $5) || TAN SHORTS (UNDER $20) || NAVY SLIP ONS
White is a universal color everyone loves, but often people are afraid to wear it because they feel it pales them out. That can sometimes happen in the winter, but not in the spring and summer. The sun and blooms bring life to the color even if you aren’t perfectly bronzed. Also pairing it with an accent color like pink (how cute is this scarf?) or blue helps bring life to the color. So drop your misconceptions and opt for that pretty white dress. It is one of the most versatile spring pieces and comes in so many variations it’s easy to find one that fits your style. Here are a couple of my favorite white dresses: white maxi (so pretty!! I need to order), lace trim sundress, and this strapless eyelet dress.
On a different note I am in love with these stripe espadrilles I got last week (they run small size up). They are only $20 and you can get an extra 30% off. Old Navy is running 30% off (35% if you have an Old Navy card) CODE: THANKYOU . How cute are B’s little shorts and shoes? They are both under $12 with the sale. I am such a sucker for sales!
You can see more pics from this outfit on Cody’s blog: Hello His here. Thanks for reading!

Was at my old navy the other day and almost got that jacket in the green. I did not see it in the pink color. Is it new? I didn’t even see it on their website in that color.
Beautiful dress, love the details.

I love all three of yours’ outfits 🙂

I’m just afraid to wear white because I’m a complete slob and can’t keep it clean! Doesn’t stop me from having some great white pieces in my closet though 😉 Love your casual shoes and beautiful peach jacket with this dress!

I don’t think the misconception is that it pales people out, it’s not very slimming for those of us who have some extra inches to trim off haha
I love the pale pink jacket with it!
And how cute is that little boy? I can’t believe he’s already one!

I tried to order on Old Navy but the code ENJOY did not work for me 🙁 Any suggestions?
Hi Tristan, sorry it looks like they created a new code today but the good news is now it’s 30% off everything – code: THANKYOU I updated the post as well in case you have any questions. Sorry about the mix up thanks for letting me know 🙂 Have a great weekend!
