It gives a much-needed breath of fresh air amidst the tide of black coats and gray skies of winter.\u00a0Then, the colour white exudes a certain softness. It is exceptionally hard to resist the appeal of\u00a0a sweater knit and soft ecru, so reminiscent of a soft blanket. The softness is further reinforced by the cocoon of winter materials, namely wool, mesh or terry angora.<\/p> <p>White also gives an air of elegance with its refined and fragile side, perhaps because white is difficult to maintain or well keep clean.\u00a0In short, we are completely armed to fight against the sad and dreary winter as long as we don a total white look. White is gorgeous but in real life, there is the risk of getting it dirty or messy. Hence, we recommend keeping a beautiful cream or white coat for special occasions only.<\/p> <p>Nonetheless, the desire to own a white coat is far greater and we it completely fine to splurge on a white coat, as long as it is offered at a reasonable price. That way, you would have lesser qualms about wearing it out everyday.<\/p> <p>Remember to choose\u00a0<strong>materials that are easy to maintain:<\/strong> cotton twill instead of corduroy for pants, poplin instead of silk for a blouse. Avoid dark scarves because throughout the day, you may run the risk of the colour fraying onto the white apparel and lastly think of using anti-stain patches\u00a0to protect your white blouses.<\/p> <p>On the runways, white was worn as a full look right down to accessories. You can however also create a contrast with\u00a0<strong>shoes and bags<\/strong> such as the gray-green boots that fit so well with the raw look of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.celine.com\/en\/home\">Celine<\/a>.\u00a0We also like the idea of flat black boots to complete a white top and skirt combination.\u00a0You can choose among one bright colourful accessory, glasses or even a collar, which will aim to immediately create a unique touch.\u00a0Finally, always keep a light hand on lace.<\/p>  <p><em>C\u00e9cile Baraize<\/em><\/p>  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Want to wear this winter's 'total white look'?
