WEARING WHITE

If you thought you weren’t allowed to wear white before Memorial Day, think again. The myth has been brought to reality, and the truth: white is ruling the runways this spring.

There are many ways to wear the fresh, bright color of white.



In an interview with Vogue.com reporter Esther Adams, Calvin Klein Collection’s Francisco Costa gives advice to “stick to ivory or winter white in cooler temperatures. It’s a neutral color, so it’s hard to overdo it, even with layering.”

However, it’s important to not get the “whitewashed” look when wearing all white. Try delicate beauty options, dark nude accessories, or bright colors to mix and match with white.

"White is so great for the summer," said sophomore Randi Anderson. "It matches just about everything and it's really pretty."



As for college students, white has proven to be a great color during the spring and summer weather, because it's such a versatile color that matches almost any top in your closet, day or night.

"My white jeans match every top I have," said sophomore Amy Copeland. "I love wearing them to work in the summer, and they even work at night time too."

You can buy white clothing at just about any store, which is another great aspect of this trend. Every store has different prices and styles of white clothes, and all you have to do is pick out your favorites.
