Ice White

I wear white year round – so the idea of winter white is something I have always embraced.  It looks clean, bright, and fresh against even the most gloomy skies (ignore the fact that my photos were taken while it was sunny outside).  I scored my coat from J.Crack about three years ago during one of their after-Christmas sales and it’s been my favorite thing to put on once the weather starts to turn cold…  Sure I only have a plain white long-sleeved tee underneath the jacket – but that’s where having a pretty statement necklace comes in handy!

    I used to have a white winter coat, but it was off-white and didn't pop like yours! Now I'll have to see if I can find one in the pre-spring sales this year!
    Thanks for the inspiration!

    I LOVE white year round too. It is a perfect neutral that pops just enough to get you noticed. You are simply stunning in your white coat.

    HI! Question, I was wondering if your JCrew coat is TTS or not?? I found one in a size 2 but I usually wear 2-4 depending on the cut. I HOPE U SEE THIS. :)
