[samnsara]

...we are all watching Ivanka cuz 'Princess' follows the rules.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. I almost never wear white regardless of the season

because I'm a slob and I'm always spilling stuff on myself.

[brooklynite]

13. I only wear white shirts when I'm meeting with POTUS or VPOTUS...

Today I'm wearing a black dress shirt and purple tie.

[irisblue]

2. scrubs & lab coats for some people.

I did like the surgery green better.

[monmouth4]

[marybourg]

18. +2 in AZ

[Warpy]

29. Same here in NM

"No white after Labor Day" went out when coal central heating did. If you wore white when it started to get a little chilly, it was tattletale gray by suppertime.

[Hortensis]

32. For sure! First, no white after Labor Day is strictly for 1950s Stepford Wives.

Second, that's an insular local climate thing. It NEVER applied in warm climates. In Florida, I've worn a cream and medium gray linen suit to funerals, useful outfit because it can be layered as needed and is appropriate year round.

Third, even if it weren't obsolete even in NY, global warming means the new Stepford rule would be more like Thanksgiving.

5. Depends on anger you live. Family in the desert does most of the yr. Here in the Pacific northwet

we rarely do. Who cares what others wear?

[Buns_of_Fire]

6. Sometimes it's the only thing in the closet that's clean.

If it offends any of my social superiors around my little town, I'll understand if they decline to invite me to the next cotillion.

[SharonClark]

7. I only wear white because it goes with everything. Why the fuck do you care?

[Maeve]

8. Tennis, anyone? eom

[SharonClark]

9. I only wear black because it goes with everything. Why the fuck do you care?

[Brother Buzz]

10. I'd wear white after Labor day

That is, if a red crayon didn't sneak into my laundry and turn all my white pink.

[MindPilot]

11. California. Summer...endless summer.

[Floyd R. Turbo]

12. Actions have consequences!

[lunasun]

14. HA I was thinking of Serial Mom as I was reading the title of this OP!

I just had to click on it as the title drew me to it . Was it a serial mom type rant I was thinking as it opened

[Solly Mack]

26. I love that movie.

[GoCubsGo]

15. I do.

I don't need any goddamn fashion police telling me what and what not to wear. And, I sure as hell don't give a rat's ass what fucking Ivanka Trump is wearing. The only thing I want hear about her wardrobe is when it finally consists of orange prison jumpsuits.

[FLPanhandle]

16. Florida. I wear White year around

Nice and cool.

Who makes fashion rules and who the hell would bother to follow them?

[Ilsa]

17. who here wears white after Labor day and why the fuck not?

I wear what I want to wear. I try to dress appropriately for the occasion. I have while flat sandals, no other white shoes.

[Control-Z]

20. Do they make white shoes? eom

[Ilsa]

23. Yeah, but i haven't seen anyone wear them

since I was a kid. Other than sandals. Any flavor of sandals works.

Someone told me thirty years ago that white pumps make you look 10 pounds lighter. Yeah, right.

[tazkcmo]

37. Not since

Pat Boon went all Metallica.

[Xolodno]

Seriously, who gives a shit what people wear.

[CatMor]

21. I wear white after Labor Day....

I call it Winter White.

[prairierose]

22. I can't wear white...

dirt finds me and it is white for such a short time. It will inevitably have a cup of coffee or tea spilled on it before I can get where I'm going.

[struggle4progress]

24. I try to wear nothing after Labor Day

[nolabear]

25. I love white. And I'll wear what I damn well please.

[DinahMoeHum]

27. It's an old wives tale, started by snot-nosed "upper class". . .

[SoCalNative]

28. I may occasionally wear a white dinner jacket

on formal night on a cruise/ocean liner..even after Labor Day, depending on the location

[MontanaMama]
