White for summer

Hello everyone and Happy Monday! Do you wear white for summer?

Bill Cunnigham shot a few stylish newyorkers wearing head to to white last week as temperatures in the city rose. I also came across the beautiful pictures in this post, and I started thinking more wearing white for summer.

I realized most of my summer dresses are actually white or neutral. Nonetheless I am always a bit afraid to wear them when I am out and about with my son for fear of getting dirty easily. I was thus envious of my mother-of-three best friend who came with us on a zoo outing+picnic in white pants, because she went home spotless!

How about you? Any tricks for wearing white? Do share!
