New Modern Classic...Details: How to Wear Black & White



Wearing white from head to toe is usually best left to those serving daiquiris poolside. But you can adapt the look for casual outdoor occasions by adding flashes of black—like a watch or the trim of a henley—in unexpected places.

To make white jeans work for a night out, the rest of what you put on should be simple but substantial—a black crewneck sweater in lightweight cashmere and a slim-fitting field jacket, for example. Skip the sneakers in favor of shiny black brogues.
