Wearing white can be quiet tricky, because it can make you look bigger than you are. I love wearing white, even though I'm pale. I think it suits my skin tone really nice. I don't like wearing it on it's own, I'd rather mix it with other colors and patterns.
I decided to give you a few tips on how to wear it, I hope they are going to be helpful to you:
➳Fist tip I can give you when it comes to wearing white dresses is choosing right shape of the dress. You need to make sure that it fits your body. This one in particular was very risky, because I could end up looking like a pregnant lady. I think I have a good height (and legs) so it turned out great!
➳Next one would be to pick right shade of white that goes with your skin tone. If you are pale you should go for bright white ones and if you have darker skin you should go for darker whites and creams.
➳You should pay attention to materials, because whites are often made of see-troughs (you should have a matching underwear!).
➳White is great for styling because there are so many options with it! I would suggest you to pick one or two colors that will pop up and make your white dress stand out. Here I had colored flowers so I went for nudes with shoes and bag. If your dress is total in white, you can wear blazer in one bright color, like red, blue or pink. It's important to remember not to go too crazy with colors.
➳If you aren't sure what to wear with white, wear metallics! They are different and stylish and so easy to style.
➳If that's too much for you, you can always go with classics, like black and white. Just grab your favourite black jacket and ankle boots and you are ready to go!
➳Style it with denim. Denim is timeless and it can be classy and casual. Wear it with denim jacket and shirt!
➳Wear it with patterns. Just like colors they go easily with any pattern. You can add bandana around your neck or patterned blazer. Just make sure to not add more than two patterns, because it will be too much.

I love wearing white dresses with sandals! and also I adore wearing it with heels, too!! this white dress is very lovely with the embroidered details in the front. I didn't know that white makes you look taller. So happy to learn that! Thank you for sharing, beauty!

Wearing a white dress with nude heels is such a smart idea, even smarter to wear a white dress with embroidery! I seriously can't get over how adorable you look. This is the perfect summer uniform!

I go for classic looks when I wear white. I like to keep it monochrome. Bnw, nude, and or denim are also great choices to pair with white. Also, nude undergarments are key! I made the mistake of wearing white undergarments in high school and it was not pleasant...

ReplyDeleteI have many white dresses and love to use them more in the summer. This is doesn't mean to refuse to wear also in the winter, especially I love to put them around the Christmas too.

Great tips - I never thought about the shade of white. But it makes sense that, like any color, white has subtle shades.
ReplyDeleteYou look like a doll in that dress Ana! And I love the floral patterns on that white dress of yours! Agree that some dress shapes make you look preggie & I had a white lace dress which made me look like one too :( My colleagues would always ask if I'm expecting whenever I wear that dress *sobs* I love wearing white too because it brightens up my skin tone and makes me look clean as a whole. Thanks for sharing your tips & I think they are really valid and relevant :)

This dress is beyond beautiful and you are stunning! I love the accessories you paired with this look! I also love that you've discussed this! Wearing white isn't the easiest and not necessary because it gets dirty! When I competed in the Miss USA organization we were always told to avoid wearing white bikinis during swim competition because it does make you look larger than what you actually are. I have a favorite white dress, and while billowy yet form fitted, I still have to make sure to stand up nice and tall in it! The fabric is something to pay attention to! I've had tit happen to me where I was wearing white and somehow forgot to think about my undergarments. :-/ Thanks for sharing all of these tips.
ReplyDeleteYes, white can be a very controversial colour, when it's being used in a wrong way. So one should be very careful when it comes to styling white clothing. The tips you've shared here are so great, especially about patterns. I personally prefer to mix white either with black, grey or navy blue, I love classics, haha.

Love how you styled this LWD! Every single detail is perfect!
ReplyDeleteAlso, so many useful tips about wearing such a tricky color! I totally agree on the shape of the dress as well as choosing the right material!

I love how you paired this dress! All the colors go together and I think white looks good on you too. I have trouble wearing white because I always spill on myself haha. But I'll keep these tips in mind when I'm brace enough to
ReplyDeleteAfter all this time, I still can't believe I don't own a white dresses. All the ones I've seen have just been so gorgeous, yours included! The thing I like about yours most is the embroidered details. I may be slightly biased since that's one of my favorite trends, haha. Such a great choice to style it with embroidered heels and a straw bag. You look so fabulous!

Your white dress is so charming and lovely!! There are many LWD in terms of style and cut and I agree that people should find the style and silhouette that is most fitting for them. Your dress with the floral embroidery detail is gorgeous and I love that you paired with neutral shoes but with a little accent that ties the look together. The straw tote is super cute, perfect summer choice.
