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

May 3, 2011 By Shelley Zurek

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:

White out jewelry Still Blonde after all these YEARSDRESSY WHITE

(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:

WHite out red still blonde after all these yearsCASUAL WHITE

(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….

(White and Gold Vintage top–EBAY)

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

(Sequin Top–The Loft)

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:

    Casual white is my favourite. You did several outfits, I feel so bad for only doing one and keeping it simple! You know, I chose a dress for this challenge but I loved a lot of the outfits that showed white jeans and tops, casual worked best I think!

    Thank you for finding me site through the challenge, look forward to stopping by here again in the future. Nice to hear that you liked my dress, it really is one of my favourite outfit posts so far 🙂

    Love the Las Vegas white! That vintage top is gorgeous.

    • stillblondeafteralltheseyears says

      May 4, 2011 at 2:46 pm

      Ha Amy!

      Isn’t that top to die for. EBAY ROCKS. The top doesn’t photograph great and that’s what it said on ebay when I bought it too! But man you should see it IRL. It’s just fantastic, it weighs about 5 pounds!

    Wow. You do not look 45+! I can’t get over how young and fab you look in all your outfits. I will say the first and last outfits are my favorites, but I really shouldn’t be choosing! Great job!

    • stillblondeafteralltheseyears says

      May 4, 2011 at 12:18 pm

      Cee—thanks for compliment. Where do I send the money???? teehee

    I like that you produced different variations on white!
    I like the “victoria’s secret” version the most!!

    • stillblondeafteralltheseyears says

      Hi Anna,

      I had so many variations because I am blonde and couldn’t make up my mind. Actually I was stunned how once I started playing with it, how much I could do with it!

    These are great ‘white-out’ outfits. Like the last one (the photo you posted in your link to the orig website) with the sequined top.
    The wedding photo of you is very pretty as well.
