IMO....

White PANTS after labor day is still a NO NO...

White tops, accessories, coats and jackets are up for grabs anytime of the year

Re: White after Labor Day?

I think it depends on the fabric and style. I think white cotton pants or linen or anything summery white is a no-no. But winter white wool pants or a blazer are nice.

White shoes and bag are a no-no after Labor Day for me at least.

I have to agree - it really depends on the white. Winter white is perfect for after summer.

As for the white shoes & bags - imo, there is never a right time for them...I just really hate the look.

I don't think so... its depends on what you wear the white pants with. I wore white jeans during the winter last year, I just paired them up with boots and a cozy sweater.
I think its ok to wear white after labor day, as long as it doesn't look to summery.

Yeah, come to think of it, I haven't worn white shoes since the eighties (my wedding as an exception)

For me white shoes, pants, coats, bags are a no-no.

But white shirts are OK all year round.

Re: White after Labor Day?

I think if it's a warm day, it's totally fine. Following these rules always seemed silly to me—it's more a common sense issue—and as far as I'm concerned, if it's 85 degrees out, I'm still in the summer gear. I love my white jeans and will rock them until the weather turns cold.
