6 Ways to Wear White After Labor Day

in Fashion, Outfit Post on 09/06/16

There’s so many silly fashion rules out there, but in my opinion, the silliest of all is no white after Labor Day. That “rule” has never made sense to me! As long as you’re dressed appropriately for the weather, it shouldn’t matter what colour(s) are included in your outfit. No matter how outdated or ridiculous the idea of no white after Labor Day is, it’s clearly stood the test of time…since we’re still talking about it!

Fall Fashion Tips - How to wear white after Labor Day

White is one of my favourite (non)colours to wear, so why not continue wearing it after Labor Day and into the fall? Exactly – there’s no reason not to! I’ve worn white in the fall and winter plenty of times before (as you can see here, here and here). Does that make me a rebel, or just your average fashion blogger?

I’ve paired this eyelet white lace dress with cool-weather accessories, to ensure I don’t freeze my butt off when the temperatures cool down. Throw on a wool felt hat, cozy scarf, and your favourite pair of leather ankle booties and you’ve got yourself the perfect outfit for fall. When it starts to get a little bit too cold for bare arms, add a leather motorcycle jacket for a complete look that transitions to fall perfectly.

Are you looking for more inspiration on how to wear white after Labor Day? There’s so many bloggers who’ve been inspiring me lately, so I’ve rounded up a few of my favourites, here.

5 looks to inspire you to wear white after labor day and into fall:

    I couldn’t agree more with ignoring the “no white after Labor Day” rule! Love the way you styled the white dress with a leather jacket.

    Love these inspiring looks — especially the white skinny jeans! And totally agree, it seems so ridiculous that wearing white after Labor Day is some sort of faux pas…I love winter white!

    Gah, that dress is so beautiful! Love it both with the jacket and without!
    I always thought that “no white after labor day” rule was dumb and I am so glad most fashion bloggers agree!

2020 has without a doubt been a year we will all r 2020 has without a doubt been a year we will all remember. It’s been a big rollercoaster, but there’s no one else I’d rather ride it with than @woodley.matt 🥰

We’ve endured so.many.challenges this year...but we’ve also had some of the best and most exciting moments of our lives this year.

I still can’t believe we bought a house, got engaged AND got a puppy this year (all within a month)! 🤯

Nobody knows what 2021 will bring, but what we do know is, it will start the same way 2020 ended: at home.

I also know we will finally be finishing and moving into our new home in early 2021, and I CANNOT WAIT!! As for wedding plans...ehh, it’s a little tricky to plan these days, so we’ll cross that bridge a little later 😜 

Wishing you all a safe and happy new year at home! 🥳 (which I’m totally okay with - I’m a 👵🏻 anyways)

I picked up knitting needles for the first time in 10+ years (maybe more?!) at the start of the pandemic. I bought a DIY unicorn kit and it took me months before I got around to finishing it. Still, I enjoyed it. 

So, this year, I thought it would be fun to knit up a few gifts for Christmas presents. 

My next project? I’m going to attempt to knit myself a cardigan. 🤭😲🤗

Christmas 2020 - like many things this year, not “normal,” but we made plenty of memories. 

We had a low-key Christmas morning, filled with Bailey’s coffee, Miller snuggles (and weird facial expressions) and cinnamon buns. We finished off the day with a Jewish Christmas dinner: Chinese take out!

I’m finishing up the last of the gifting projects and then it’s onto baking cookies! 💁🏼‍♀️

I *think* I know what I’ll be baking...but I’m having a tough time committing 🤪

Happy thanksgiving!! 🍂🍁 Even though it hasn Happy thanksgiving!! 🍂🍁

Even though it hasn’t been a “normal” Thanksgiving weekend, there is so much to be thankful for. 

One (very) small thing I’m thankful for is that I took Matt’s advice on forgoing my usual butter-only pie crust recipe for one that includes shortening. I used the pumpkin pie recipe from @sallysbakeblog - including the mix of shortening and butter in the crust. I think it was my best pumpkin pie yet! 
(The Turkey was fantastic too of course 😏)
