The little white dress


Queens! Ditch the little black dress (so expected) and make your style pop with white

Today the little white dress is on the menu.White dresses are simple, refreshing, and summery. Wearing them well, however, is a little more complicated than the simplicity suggested by the colour. The little white dress is incredibly versatile, as you can dress it down or glam it up with just a few key accessories.This article provides some pointers on how to put on a white dress.

How to wear it?
Choose the right shade

Not everyone can wear bright, crisp white, but fortunately, there’s a shade of white for every skin type. Cool skin tones (with blue and pink undertones) work well with classically bright white (because it also has cool undertones) and pair well with silver accessories. Bronze skin tones (with orange, yellow, or red undertones) go best with white or ecru, especially when paired with gold accessories. Ebony skin tones (which can have yellow, blue, or red undertones) are more versatile and work with white or ecru as well as both silver and gold accessories. Warm skin tones(dark brown, light brown, or even pale provided that there are golden or yellow undertones) go best with cream or ivory whites and either gold or silver accessories.Olive skin tones (with a pale greenish or yellow undertone and no pink) looks best with ecru.
KMS  warning!  Counterintuitively, white underwear is actually quite visible beneath white fabric, so avoid it – and anything other than your skin colour, for that matter. Skin-toned underwear will ensure that nothing peeps through to draw the eye to the wrong place; use skin-coloured slips, underpants and bras.
With a pop of color
If you want to make more of a statement, match up your little white dress with some bright colors: reds, blues, or pinks. Pair your white dress with a brightly colored blazer, handbag, or shoes for a fun pop of color that will draw attention! This look is great for nights out on the town when you want to make a fun statement. Make sure to use color sparingly though, because whatever you wear will really stand out with your white dress, so remember, less is more.

Add metallics
Glamorous silver and gold accessories will pop even more against a white canvas. Pair your white dress with some color tinted metallic accessories for a more modern look.

with denim
Another great way to dress down your little white dress is to add some denim to it. Pair it with a tied up denim button down shirt or a denim jacket. Then add some brown shoes or a belt and you have a stylish yet laid back outfit to wear around town. 

with  patterns
Matching patterns with your little white dress is also a great way to make a statement. Just like colors and metallics, white will make any pattern stand out. You can pair your little white dress with a colorful patterned scarf, leggings, or blazer. Make sure not to add more than one patterned accessory to your white dress, as it will look too overpowering.


With black
Perfect if you  have to attend a black and white party and you want to stand out from all the other girls who will most likely be wearing little black dresses.










For which style?
Casual 
For everyday casual style,add some modern street vibes by wearing your little white dress with a leather jacket.You may play your biker card with a biker black one ,or play on a more coloured note.
Sandals,metallic derbies or boots are allowed.



Classy
Flashy heels(neon or printed ones) ,bold lips, of course a flowy minimalist white dress with an outstanding but still  simple cut,and you get it.
Boho chic
Ladies boho  don't  necessarily means baggy ! A fitted white dress can perfectly make sense here.
Shoes can vary depending on your preference. Sandals would be the obvious choice, but metallic peep-toe wedges are also very chic. 
Jewellery!This is probably the most important part of all. Boho chic is synonymous with "accessories galore". This means plenty of bracelets, ankle bracelets, mix-and-match necklaces, and dangling earrings. Just make sure they're a noticeable part of your wardrobe.

Chic
Looking for more of a chic and sophisticated outfit? Then pair up your little white dress with some black. Match your dress with a black belt, black clutch, and some black pumps.When it comes to where you should wear your little white dress, remember there are no fashion rules. Except not to wear it to a wedding,that's a big taboo! You are not the bride! 


Queens now you have it all! go for your white dress!
