OUTFIT INSPIRATION: BRIGHT WHITE

Need a little outfit inspiration to get yourself out of a wardrobe rut? Whenever I'm feeling uninspired by my closet, I do two things: 1) I clean out my closet and 2) I turn to Pinterest. Clearing out the clutter to create more space for the pieces I actually wear (and the items I want to add to my closet) makes it so much easier to mix and match. And I can usually find some pretty obvious trends on my style board. This time around, I'm clearly having a moment with bright whites and summery neutrals. Here are a few of the looks inspiring my closet clean-out...

There's a way to do preppy summer neutrals without looking like you wore your tennis whites out to happy hour. Here are a few of the essentials I'm moving to the front of my closet or putting on my list to purchase by summer's end (with a few options to cover every price point!).

Lace top

Tory Burch, $250  //  Joie, $178  //  Dolce Vita, $99  //  J.Crew, $49  //  J.Crew Factory, $39  //  Old Navy, $19

Modern pearls

Chloé, $505  //  Tory Burch, $192  //  Lele Sadoughi, $154  //  Kate Spade, $48  //  BaubleBar, $38  //  Jeweliq, $20

Eyelet dress

Tibi, $325  //  Madewell, $168  //  Nordstrom, $84  //  Topshop, $70  //  Gap, $35  //  Old Navy, $18

Fisherman sweater (tip: buy from the boys' section for a more fitted look!)

Ralph Lauren, $250  // LL Bean, $99  //  Topshop, $56  //  Gap, $40  //  ASOS, $16  //  H&M, $7

Breezy (maxi or midi) skirt

Rachel Pally, $198  //  Wildfox, $108  //  Topshop, $90  //  d.ra, $79  //  Chelsea28, $78  //  ASOS, $38

The perfect white button-down

Equipment, $208  //  Ralph Lauren, $90  //  J.Crew, $72  //  Gap, $50  //  Old Navy, $25

Here's hoping head-to-toe white will be just as chic with a few iced coffee spills. Murphy's law ;) In spite of its impracticality, all white is all right by me. Would you give it a go this summer?
