Hi BG! Have fun in Chicago. I'm not a big white girl but you make it look great. I may give it a go.

I do wear white, but not TOO much. We're going to an all-white boat cruise for the 4th of July, so I need to by something fresh, crisp and white ASAP.

Great post!

I must admitted that I'm a black and white girl.
I love white in the summer and black in the winter.
But I'm very excited about the stain remover.
Great find, TKS!

Wes said...

I'm so glad you threw the Tide pen in there b/c the whole time I was checking out your post I was thinking "I love white but I'm too afraid to wear it for fear of getting diry!!"... Great post as usual!

i LOVE wearing white in the summer...not head to toe (unless it's a summer dress) but usually a white tank with tons of bangles or something like that. White looks fierece with dark skin.

Enjoy your vacation. The sorts are cute and the white shirt is great. I was just telling a pal that I need a white dress this summer.
Thanks for this post.

BGG, I love white. It's especially pretty against brown, sun kissed skin. I just bought a new white tank and white sandals but I need a few more pieces. I absolutely love the white purse from Target. I need to go shopping!

I love the idea of a good chic white pant in the summer; it seems so classic. Unfortunately, I rarely wear white in the summer because I have a bad habit of spilling food and drinks on myself. But, since you mentioned the Tide To Go Pens, I may venture out in white more often.

BTW I loved the white shoes. They look like a definite must have.

B said...

I don't have much white. Chile, I'm a messy thang. Save travels to Chi!! Have fuuuun.

I'm too clumsy to wear white!

For example - last week I went to a boat party for a work party out of town... and decided it was a must to do white - so I donned white skinnies. They looked super fab and I was super careful... so then later that night when getting ready for bed in my hotel - I spilled some of my diet Coke all over the side table and mopped. Thank god I had changed by that point.

Well - just my luck - because I woke up in the morning and found the worst of worst scenarios --- I thought my brand new white skinny pant was a towel and mopped up my soda spill with my white pants! I was horrified to say at the very least.

That's a prime example why I can't do white - but I'll live vicariously through the BGs here!

PS - I did salvage the pair with a good dry cleaner - but lesson learned!

Although I love wearing white, I always mange to get a stain on it so I keep it to a minimum. I'm always looking for the perfect white t shirt so i'm definitely going out to buy that v neck tee!

@Browngirlspeak - I will be on the lookout for cute maternity clothes for you!
