The Little White Dress (or the LWD) is synonymous with summer: light, airy, romantic it’s the perfect option for embracing the hot sun and balmy temperatures. Tossing out the old misconception that white is reserved for brides only, an LWD is always a perfect choice for a summer day or evening making it as simple and classy as it’s LBD sister. Use the white as a blank canvas to experiment with fun shoes and bright accessories (think metallics for a cocktail night, or sandals or ballet flats for an effortless day look).
