White is the Color of Snow....

But it’s also the color for spring! There is just something so ideal when it comes to mixing spring time weather with all over white attire. I love wearing white because it just feels so effortless but still allows you to really stand out. While black is timeless and sophisticated, white is breezy and pure, polar opposites but two amazing looks.

This spring we are seeing all the big names take on this craze for white like Philip Lim’s latest resort collection, but I have to admit I am loving what VIKTOR & ROLF has to offer. The pieces for this season are simple and sexy, which is easy for all of us girls to wear anytime, anyplace. One of my favorite pieces is the VICTOR & ROLF Off White Dress, $845. This dress is so simple it’s silly, but the overall style is just so perfect. Everything from the cowl-neck to the seam accentuating the waist makes this dress feminine and flattering.

I think pairing this dress with a pair of dramatic black heels with a bold clutch is the perfect evening look. Keep the hair tousled with beach waves and some bold pink lips, perfect for spring. However since this dress is so simplistic it also makes it versatile so I would also love pairing some flat sandals with a straw tote, hair up in a loose pony tail and big sunglasses which is a great daytime look.

We also say models saunter down the runway in the amazing VIKTOR & ROLF Off Shoulder Shirtdress, $1,125 which puts an edgy spin on such a classic style. Sure, we all love the shirtdress, I know I am obsessed but this dress is like no other. It’s rough and bold and I am just loving it. The fun style has a wide neckline making one side off the shoulder and an asymmetrical hemline that is so unique its alluring. On the runway this dress was paired with white peep toe moon shoe-inspired booties but I think that it would look the best with a real edgy shoe to give it a huge contrast. Any shoe with studs is my first choice because they are just as tough as the dress itself.

The moral of the story today kiddies? Get your white on, and I don’t mean anything that has to deal with snow.
