How To Wear Winter Whites Like Gwyneth Paltrow
Whoever said you can't wear white after Labor Day was seriously deranged. White, like black, is always a good idea and it was just confirmed again: Gwyneth Paltrow rocked a white jumpsuit at the RH Modern Gallery unveiling in Los Angeles. Let me just say, she's giving black a run for its money, because damn, this neutral might just be eclipsing fashion's favorite color.
Paltrow basically wrapped up three different trends in one look: Fall/winter whites, culottes, and a raw hem. Of course, the classic beauty pulled it off effortlessly. Plus, it had a plunging neckline that was the perfect mix of elegant and sexy. It was like a perfect present, finished off with a bow right in the middle. It's not quite holiday season yet, but she gave it to us!
Paltrow paired her culotte jumpsuit with red strappy sandals, adding just a bit of color to add a pop to her whole look. She tied it together with a red lip, straight hair in a deep side part, and a natural, fresh makeup look. Overall, I give it a 10 out of 10. It's a look I would definitely steal for my own wardrobe. I love how subtly sexy this whole ensemble was, too, and how the silhouette was both feminine and masculine. It's not easy to pull that off, but of course, Paltrow did!
This season, I'm going to add "pulling a Paltrow" to my list of sayings, meaning wearing fall/winter whites while absolutely slaying. If you're with me, check out some white pieces that are perfect — nay — essential for the upcoming season.
