White Winter Wonderland or Summertime Style? We Take the White Trend to the Polls!

White Winter Wonderland or Summertime Style? We Take the White Trend to the Polls!

To me white has always been a summer colour; a light cotton summer dress to be worn on the beach while you tease your toes in the warm, turquoise sea. It's a nice image, isn't it? So I'm having a debate with myself over why white doesn't work for me as a winter colour. Yes I know I know, winter wonderland and all that.

Our favourite celebs are loving it on the red carpet, especially Poppy Delevingne, who looked sensational at the Topshop/Topman dinner in New York this week.

Coco Rocha, Anna Faris and Poppy Delevingne love white!

I just can't assimilate white with this cold time of year. I have to attribute it to my mum really. She always told me she thought my shiny white runners looked a bit odd with my full length school winter coat with the tartan party dress I insisted on wearing on all occasions. I'm sorry, I just can't shake it.
