15 Convincing Reasons to Wear All-White This Winter

If Hailey Bieber’s cozy apres-ski-inspired outfit earlier this week wasn’t enough to convince you to board the all-white winter train, perhaps this flock of street style stars will change your mind. For those who aren’t lucky enough to be able to take a stroll outdoors in just a sweater and slides this winter, you’re in luck. You don’t have to live in sunny Los Angeles to jump on the trend—a head-to-toe white outfit looks chic no matter the locale or temperature, from frigid February days in New York, to the slightly more moderate winter days in Paris.

Daring as it might be, a pair of white boots would be a good place to start: Take your pick between a practical rubber style, or some slouchy leather knee-highs to get grounded. Winterproof those precious summer frocks by layering a chunky knit over or turtleneck under, and seal it with a buttery ankle-length faux-fur coat. A wool trucker jacket and matching trousers offer a more casual spin on the look, while a white pleated midi skirt is perfect for the office or an upcoming holiday party. To top if off (and to keep those extremities warm), a pair of white leather gloves and a chalky angora bucket hat are just the trick.

This season, steer clear of your sad, overworn darker outfits—and instead, swap in bright white pieces to your monochromatic look for an added dose of eye-catching cool. Here, 15 ways to layer up in winter whites from head to toe.
