White is fashionable all year-round, but it is especially stunning in the winter. Winter-white looks so pristine and flawless, especially against a backdrop of snow. Like a queen of the winter wonderland or an adorable snow bunny, you'll fit right in with the season, yet stand out in the best way possible. As you consider where to add white into your wardrobe, allow me intervene and suggest that you find a white dress or more to suit your needs. It's one of the easiest ways to get that dramatic winter-white look all in one article of clothing.
For the casual girl who has things to do, places to go, and people to see, she will need an easy white dress that will move with her, and still maintains a clean, put-together look even after all those errands. No point in putting on a nice, white dress if you're going to look like a wrinkled mess within 10 minutes of starting your day! For her, a cozy white sweater dress like this bebe Pointelle Sweater Dress for $79 is the way to go. Like this model, pair it with some chandelier earrings (This diamond-shaped pair has great geometric appeal), black tights, and she is set. If she has more to spend, this Halston Heritage V-Neck Jersey Dress for $325 will have her looking like a beautiful, modern-day '70s icon. The jersey material's soft draping and the dress's roomy fit allows for plenty of movement for a fashionista on the go.
If her workplace is more casual, she can wear either of those two dresses to work, too. But, if she's looking for something more "executive," yet still comfortable, she will want to take a look at this $79.99 (marked down from $148) beauty from White House | Black Market: the Ruffled Matte Jersey Dress. To stay warm and complete the look, all she will need is a sophisticated cropped blazer on top. The sheath silhouette is a quintessential office staple. For a more unique sheath dress that flatters the figure further, the working woman will love this Calvin Klein Sleeveless Taffeta Sheath Dress with ruching details for $117.90. Again, a nice cropped blazer will really make her look even more polished. Now, the thing that really takes these two dresses to the top of her must-have list is the fact that these two picks are extremely cocktail-hour-appropriate! She can even meet up with her date in these dresses after work.
For the fun girl who enjoys a crazy night out on the town or at the downtown clubs and lounges, the right white dress can be really attention-grabbing. Here's an example of something daring and artistic in its asymmetry: the Astor Strapless Tube Dress for $47.87. It is sexy with its peek-a-boo keyhole and mini length, but still keeps it classy enough with its billows of draping fabric for coverage and drama. Pulled-back locks and a pair of black high heel pumps will have her looking chic from head to toe.
For the elegant lady who has a more formal event to attend, a white dress constructed of a more luxurious material like satin, sateen, silk, lace or c
hiffon is perfect for catching the light and people's eyes. From White House | Black Market comes this silk shantung party Strapless Silk/Tulle Dress for $99.99 (marked down from $168). It has a plain, fitted bodice with striping detail on the skirt. This other silk number by Phoebe Couture focuses more on accentuating the top of the dress by adding a pleated detail on the bust. It is just $198, after having been marked down from $330. If she likes her white with some hints of gold, she will love this Maggy London Tie Waist Metallic Lace Dress for $138. The V-neckline will flatter her chest and the over-sized sash and bow will accentuate her waist. For something with a more dramatic effect, this effortless, floor-grazing Adrianna Papell Beaded Neck Chiffon Gown for $198 should do the trick. She will want to pin her tresses back into a bun or a side-swept chignon for the event. Or, if the event turns out to be less formal than expected, she can let down her hair.
