Winter White Paper Doll
 
Winter white sounds like a good idea in theory. I love whites, creams, and neutrals together – and in the cold weather, it somehow looks even more chic! But in reality, a winter white outfit isn’t necessarily the most practical, especially living in New York. The grime of the city and the natural elements seem to instantly be attracted to white. I think that’s one of the reasons that they say black is a New Yorker’s uniform!
 
That being said, while home in Florida, I jumped at the chance to ditch my all-black and wear a wintery white look! Even though it was beyond sunny most days, there was still a little chill in the air that was perfect sweater weather. I wore my new Club Monaco sweater with a slightly cropped silhouette and tiered, ruffled sleeves. Rachel and I snagged this on an impromptu shopping trip in SoHo. Sometimes the unexpected shopping days are the ones where you find something you really love. This sweater is just that for me! I paired my sweater with Topshop distressed moto jeans. If you haven’t already, y’all have got to try these on! They’re my favorite! The high-waist, slightly cropped ankle and stretchy material make them so comfortable, but they don’t bag out! I love them.
 
To keep things neutral, I wore my all white with nude Stuart Weitzman nudist sandals and my new taupe Saint Laurent tote. I felt like I was serving some Kim Kardashian realness with this outfit! Jason and I spent the afternoon in one of my favorite neighborhoods in the city – San Marco. We admired the homes, did a little shopping, and stopped for ice cream when the sun got a bit warm. Overall, what a perfect day! AND, to top things off, I didn’t get any stains on the pristine white ‘fit. I’d call that a major success!
 
Asal Sweater: Club Monaco.  MOTO Ripped Jeans: Topshop Sold Out (Similar).  Nudist Goosebump Sandals: Stuart Weitzman.  Sac de Jour Calfskin Handbag: Saint Laurent.  Sunglasses: Givenchy.

    HAHAH i legit looked at your photos and was like, “girl is brave rocking all white… cant do that in the city” and then proceeded to read your following lines hahha

    Love the look and one day, I can lock myself in my room, wear all white, not touch anything, and it will be the only time Ive ever not gotten a white outfit dirty. Im a total hot mess.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Lovely, I don’t even know where to start with my comment because this look is just SO PERFECT & SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!! 🙂 I genuinely love your style and this it’s so me, especially this all-white with nude-tan accessories styling. So crazy about it! Ditching black is sometimes a very good idea 😉
