White out, Change it up: Outfits modeled by Women over 45

[ 97 ] May 3, 2011 |

This Spring we saw ALL WHITE fashions all over the Runway!

White out BASIC Still blonde after all these YearsBASIC WHITE

(The Chief Blonde is wearing Pants and Shirt-The LOFT, Gold/silver/copper Hale Bob Vintage shoes, Vintage Earrings and Bracelet, Serena Williams Signature Bracelet (c/o))

So what’s a girl who normally wears all black to do with a fashion direction that emphasizes ALL WHITE?  Try like crazy to embrace the trend and see how she can make it work for her.  I call the look above Basic White.  The peddle pusher pants and camisole blouse are so basic that they can just about be worn anywhere with or without any accessory and still work.  (Sounding like my basic black right?)

Next, I decided to show you what happens with basic white if you just change a few items.  In the outfit below, I just changed the jewelry and a few accessories:

(Serena Williams Signature Ring c/o,  Forever 21 Necklace, Victoria Secret evening bag, Vintage sweater)

You can see, without even changing the shoes how I have dressed up this look.  Now let’s see what we can do to make it look more casual:

(Stuart Weitzman Kitten heels,  Rhumba Watch c/o, indian bead bracelet, Crystalyn Kae Recyled Leather Clutch c/o, Cinzia zip Necklace c/o)

Of course, what would white be if I couldn’t do Las Vegas Elvis/Liberace White? The camera doesn’t do this top justice…it’s a fantastic bit of vintage bead work!  I would make the KING so proud….

And  last but not least,  just to show you that white works no matter what the mood:

So there you have it, the ALL WHITE trend executed by a slightly vintage Blonde, who is definitely a newbie with this trend!

Which outfit was your favorite?

And just for a little bit of a silliness and with a nod to this week’s Royal Wedding:

    I stumbled you from the Tuesday Stumble hop! Definitely love the casual with the red shoes. Red shoes are pretty much the best kind of shoes!

    Beautiful! You’re beautiful! White looks good but I’d be scared to spill something on myself.

    Stumbled. Would love a stumble back.
