5 Effortless Ways to Style White Pants This Winter
White pants—whether jeans or trousers—especially in the dead of winter, are like a clean slate for your wardrobe. All-white winter outfits are a favorite of the street style set, but the palette-cleansing pants can be incorporated into your wardrobe in a myriad of other ways, too. Just take it from Vogue’s Tonne Goodman, who wears her many pairs of stark white Levi stovepipes all year round. White pants can, in fact, be worn any time of year, even past the antiquated Labor Day expiration date rule. You might think that a pair of white pants is not the wisest choice for a slushy, post-snow-storm sidewalk—but it’s clear that many of our street style muses disagree.
As indicated by some of our favorite ensembles below, white pants will pair easily with the rest of your cold-weather wardrobe, like cozy coats, rugged combat boots, and chunky, lug-sole loafers. The best part? You won’t have to tuck them away once the flowers begin to bloom.
White Pants + Cool Black Separates
Take a cue from stylist Vittoria Ceretti and pair billowing white trousers with a black hoodie, furry coat, and a pair of Nikes for a perfect high-low mix.
White Pants + Khaki Neutrals
Lean into neutrals with layered khaki coats over a clean white turtleneck and pants. Black accessories help this look pop.
White Pants + Navy Accents
Here Jenny Walton paired flowy cream trousers with navy for a soft, chic winter look.
White Pants + Menswear-Inspired Separates
White jeans are the perfect compliment to menswear staples, like an oversized blazer and chunky derbies.
White Pants + Shades of Orange and Brown
Stark white also looks great with a punch of color, as demonstrated by this pairing with bright orangey-brown.
