I did it!  I bought my first pair of white denim! And now that I shot them for this post, I can wear them in real life! Truth- white pants terrify me!  The main reason I refused to wear them before taking these photos was pure fear that I would spill on them.  It is also a major reason why I have never bought a pair. And honestly, I am a still scared to wear them.  What if I sit in something?  Or spill my wine/food on them?  Or get splashed by the mud caused by our recent rain storms?  Yep, I am totally an over-worrier!  I decided a few months ago to take the plunge and find a pair of white denim to try out.  I love outfits with white denim!  They really go with every color of the rainbow.  I had already planned like a dozen outfits before I even found a pair.  It took me a while to find a pair because I wanted them to be a thicker material, have some stretch, and be under $100.  I found this pair from DSTLD which is an online only store.  Because they do not sell in stores, their prices are minus the department store price mark-up.  It is a huge perk to buying from these kind of brands.  I liked that they offered free shipping and free return shipping. They even sent me a separate bag to return them in (which I ended up needing to return my first pair).  Just a heads up, I preferred the fit of one size up.  My normal size fit just fine, but I wanted a white jean with a little more room than my normal skinny jeans.   I feel like white has a little less forgiveness, and I wouldn’t mind if they looked a little bit loose.

As soon as I found the right fit, I began the mission of finding the right top!  How pretty is this Anthropologie top??  I really like the all neutral look, and this top fit the bill perfectly!  Plus, it covers my seat area, just in case I sit in anything.  That brings me to my vintage floral locket!  I briefly mentioned this locket in my post on Wednesday.  I had buyers remorse that I did not purchase it, so I went back and I am soooo happy it was still available.  It is so gorgeous!  You can probably see why I couldn’t get it out of my head for like a week or so until I could go back and buy it. While this outfit would look awesome with a pop of color necklace, I really liked keeping my necklace in the same neutral color pallete.  Now to be brave enough to wear these pants out the door!!!  Happy Friday Ya’ll!!
