A vision in white

Jewel tones and bright colors may be in this season, but sometimes I also adore a clean, bright, white palette. After all doesn't this colorless color, especially in a more neutral shade, feel like a comfortably warm spring day?

This is my pick for a lovely white (ok cream) top for spring!

Basic Scallop Edged Vest, Topshop, $30

These vases are such clean and classic decor pieces.

Pure White ceramic vase collection, West Elm, $10-$89

What lovely white piece of apparel/decor is on your wish list?

I think a basic white tank is the ultimate wardrobe essential and I'd happily take anything from the other pics! Dreamy.

White is always right in my book - although I look better in more of an ivory - but obviously same idea!!

i've been longing for a white blazer!
what worries me is the fact that i can be such a klutz sometimes...now who wants to be wearing a stained blazer right :)

I love white decor... so fresh and classy! I just find it very calming. My apartment is mostly neutral tones.

I definitely love white as well! I think white can look so chic and is also very comfortable when the weather gets warm!

I need a white dress for a yacht party I'm attending this summer. I usually avoid white because it doesn't compliment my skin tone, so maybe I'll go for ivory instead. I think white is beautiful on those that can pull it off!

I'd love to do my room in all white. I think it's so beautiful and calming {until my husband comes in and inevitably spills something that is :} Those vases would be the perfect start to my room!

Love the west elm vases. I recently went to the store and was happy to see that the vases are even bigger in person. Lovely post.

I'm with you too! I normally prefer colors but sometimes a neutral palette can feel so refreshing. Love the oversized hat in the first photo and the vases from West Elm.

No matter how many colors are "in" I'm a simple black and white girl. I love all of these photos - so classic and chic :) xx
