Happy Memorial Day! Now that we can all officially wear white (even though I’ve been wearing white jeans and skirts for months…those fashion “rules” are so silly) I’m sharing a few ways to wear a white skirt. A white skirt is a classic piece that is perfect for spring and summer. I recently bought this white eyelet skirt from Zappos and I’ve been wearing it a ton — it’s easy to dress up or dress down, and the eyelet adds some pretty detailing and texture. It’s a little higher in price, but this one is similar and only $25!
There are a million possibilities when it comes to styling a white skirt, and although I photographed only four, I’ll share a few more ideas as we go through each of the four, plus I’ll share a few of my favorite white skirts so you can add one to your closet!
1. WHITEOUT. You guys should know by now how much I love the whiteout trend. It’s such a crisp and summery look, and would be perfect for a bridal or baby shower, an outdoor summer party, or church during the warm months. I styled mine with blush and rose gold to add a feminine touch!
2. BLACK AND WHITE. Black and white is such a classic combo, and here it creates a dramatic combination. You could wear just a black tee or black blouse, but I added a leather jacket for a little edge.
3. BUTTON DOWN. A freshly pressed button down is always a good idea for summer. I have a ton in my closet — chambray, white, striped, gingham, etc — but I chose gingham for this look because it feels so summer. You could tuck it in, but I think having it tied in the front gives it more of a casual feel, rather than more of a business attire feel. I also added casual wedges to complete the summery look.
4. WITH A TEE. This skirt in particular is a little more dressy, but can still be dressed down — just add a casual t-shirt and flats! Since it’s still cool here in SoCal, I added a jacket, but chose denim because it matches the casual feel. You could also do a graphic tee or a striped tee!
Yes! I was just in one yesterday and saw a couple. It made me think of Merrick because she’s been so into the white eyelet recently…and then this post! Ha!
I would say that it’s not particularly appropriate to wear all white to a wedding shower unless you are the bride – goes hand-in-hand with the “Rule” about not wearing white to weddings.
I would disagree with that. Brides don’t necessarily wear white to a shower like they do on their wedding day. I wore red to my shower. I say wear what you want to a shower!
I just wanted to drop in and let you know that when you click on the link at the bottom of your post that says the skirt is only $25, it is actually $50. Because I clicked through thinking I might order it at first. Have a great week!

Ha, clearly I have an eyelet problem 😉

My fave is the gingham and white skirt combo!!

shoot, it must have only been on sale for the holiday weekend! Sorry to seem like I was misleading you — it was on sale when I found it!
Love the way you’ve styled this gorgeous skirt!

All the outfits are so nice!
