but i happen to love the look of crisp white jeans so every spring i take a deep breath and pray that i still fit into them. i usually wear a loose-fitting top and heels to make me feel less squat.
i get less self-conscious and less traumatized after the first couple of wears and as the season progresses white jeans become a wardrobe staple for me.

Love this! The D&G top is so delightfully bizarre. It really stands out. And I adore white jeans, too, although I agree that there's always a degree of self-consciousness about wearing them. I need a new pair.

One day I hope to find a flattering slim white jean. Beautiful dolce sweater, I like the color and the unique silhouette of it too.
I wish I could find a pair of white jeans that won't make my short legs look even stumpier! But you pull it off great especially with the Mulberry bag for a laid back look. I love it! The whole thing just looks so pulled together.
I also have that love-hate relationship with white jeans! I love them on others but hate them on me! :) But I've made a decision to face my fear :) and now I'm searching for the perfect pair, let's see how it goes :)
I like this look, I really like the color combination...
Looking lovely!
I love the pockets on these jeans. And I've always loved that sweater.
Lovely sweater - looks perfect paired with the white jeans. And you look great, don't worry!
Not to mention the fear of unknowingly sitting on someone's chocolate crumbs or something equally mortifying :)
I know exactly how you feel - SO classicly chic and SO hard to brave! You look absolutely fab in them though so you have nothing to fret! Beautiful!
i love the jeans and the drapey top. i tend to follow the same pattern, but i'm still hunting for a perfect fitting pair. the earnest sewns i have seem to come across my path in all the wrong sizes. remedying that situation this summer since i too think white jeans are such an easy staple.
Well I think you look great. I dislike donning them for another reason; that is, I get them dirty approximately eight minutes after putting them on.
So simple and chic! I wish I could pull off white jeans. They just end up disgusting and dirty :( I'm a hot mess lol.
I love this look. It makes me want a pair of white jeans too, something that I've never worn
loves it
you pull off white jeans really well! i love the look, but every time i try some on, i give myself nightmares for weeks. i only wish they looked this good. i love the little pop of gold with the belt. what a great flea market find. ~joelle
