I follw it only for pants and shoes- shirts is fine, and its only the bright white. Winter white and off white is def. a go in the fall/winter.

I just said to DH that I was going to wear my white capris tomorrow and he questioned it. But I say if it is warm...the rule goes out the window. Also, I think I heard something on some fashion show/segment that those rules don't apply anymore.

I cant wear white pants, shoes, or skirts after labor day. I know the rule is old, but I would hear my moms voice in my head all day.

I was just going through this with DH. He's away and I was telling him what I was going to wear tomorrow (white capri's and an olive-colored wrap top) and he was like "ummm.... it's September 8th. No white." I am wearing them anyway. It's going to be pretty warm and I want to stretch my summer stuff as long as possible!

I'm starting to wonder when my DH became a fashionista! I guess he is a metrosexual so that must be the next step Chat Icon

Re: Wearing white after Labor Day???

I think a white shirt is OK. (I hope I do not offend here.....) but I think that white pants, skirts & Capri's - especially lighter summer fabrics - no good after labor day.

I think no-a-days that only applies for head-to-toe white. Or white pants.
