Avoid The January Gloom: Wear Winter White

January can often feel gloomy if you live in the northern hemisphere.

I don’t mind because I like the cold and all the getting dressed up that goes along.

I’m crushing on winter white right now; maybe it’s the snowy scenery and maybe it is simply that it looks wonderful.

Winter white mixed with black, with khaki or with denim. Either way I’m thinking the change from black is needed to shake up January and chase away any doom and gloom.

Winter white, what’s not to love?

I’m particularly partial to winter white sweaters; the thick chunky ones and the finer cashmeres. I love an all creamy poncho worn over a cream turtleneck with black or khaki pants.

Is there anything more gorgeous than a winter white coat over an LBD? This neutral coat looks fabulous over almost anything at all and if the coat is right then it lifts everything underneath to a whole new level.

My suitcase this trip is a monochrome mix; a mix of winter white and black with a little khaki thrown in. I didn’t pack many pieces because it’s a ski trip for the most part and there goes the baggage allowance so what I have has to work together and be on repeat.

It is working so far and especially the big cable knit sweater with the forever comfortable Pixies and winter white jacket.

The white jeans have even made a comeback.
