Style Session: How to Wear Plus Size White Jeans for Fall
Next to “fat ladies shouldn’t wear horizontal stripes,” I think “don’t wear white after Labor Day” is my favorite fashion rule to break.
And I know I’ve said here before that I think I actually prefer white jeans in fall and winter because of the contrast between them and the rich, spicy colors we wear this time of year.
Here are three looks for fall, based around white jeans.
Starting with a simple chunky turtleneck, I added in my leopard loafers and a cognac cross body. I LOVE camel and white together!
Here I went for a more layered look, with a black crewneck, black Aerosoles loafers, and a camel sweater blazer. Black and white, always classic.
These black flats are the same shoes as the leopard ones (above). In the end, I returned last month’s “pretty” flats because they just didn’t fit well enough, even just walking around the apartment. They were comfortable, but the back of the shoe slipped off my heel with every step. I know the leopard loafers were super comfortable, even for long city walks, so I opted for the less pretty and not-on-sale comfortable shoe, and I do not regret it.
And lastly, this holiday-inspired look, with a brighter red plaid blouse and green utility jacket. I think this would be a fun, casual Thanksgiving or Christmas outfit.
Forgive the weird shot, I forgot to photograph this outfit while I was filming and had to grab a still from the video.
I did a StyleSession on IGTV on today with the “Wear it Wednesday” ladies, so I figured I’d share it with you here, too. Do you many of you use Instagram?

I love, love, love white jeans. I have 2 pair myself and like to pair them with camel and olive. And here in Florida they seem psychologically “cooler” (as in temperature) than blue jeans, if that even makes any sense, lol. I really like all your outfit combos.

Oh yeah, I forget there are other parts of the country that essentially dress for summer all year round. And I do get the “white/cooler” thing. I mean they always say not to get a black car because black absorbs the heat and makes the car hotter. When I was still in my house I had a new roof put on and I had to FIGHT with the contractors because I wanted a black (it was actually the darkest grey) roof, not the light silvery grey that EVERY OTHER HOUSE ON LONG ISLAND HAS. And I can’t say I ever saw any appreciable difference in temperature afterwards. Plus, I thought, if it WAS attracting the heat, wouldn’t that be a bonus in the winter when it’s cold?

I have to admit that I don’t have a lot of camel, but with the white I think I’m in love. Especially with those leopard shoes!! Did you notice that Jill and Hayley basically wore that same combination too?? It’s obviously a great look!!

I think you hit the nail on the head with white looking so good with the rich fall colors. I really like your outfits, especially the first one with leopard.
