As Labor Day peeks over the horizon, we’re embracing the simple shade of white as our color of the month, lest the fashion police flag us down for inappropriate post-holiday hues. Read on to see some of our favorite selections from local boutiques (though we might have to break some rules and wear these looks year round).

This all-white look from Hemline makes for a casual-but-classy dinner outfit. After all, sticking to a monochrome palette is one of the quickest ways to instantly look put together, while contrasting fabrics add interest and texture.

A little Southern flair comes in the form of these handmade magnolia earrings from Clay Corner. They’re bold enough to make a statement, but versatile enough to pair with just about anything.

Afraid that a lack of true color makes for a bland palette? Think of it this way: a skirt set like this one from Blink becomes a simple base that allows accessories to shine. Pair the pieces together, or style them separately.

This romper from Bella Bella is a summer staple that celebrates the fleeting moments of the season. Slip on a simple sandal or pair of sneakers for a more transitional look.

With back-to-school season upon us, a practical pair of sneakers is a must. When the look of Air Force Ones begins to grow stale, maybe look into trying something new, like this pair of Golden Gooses from Aria.
