White Me

If you pick up any recent fashion magazine it seems white is the colour of the summer, a no brainer really-everyone knows the supremely flattering potential of summer tan + white dress. However Thomas Nutzl's editorial in this month's UK Elle demonstrates the new breed of white. Styled by Anne-Marie Curtis, the shoot combines futuristic, abstract pieces with delicate broderie anglaise and sheer lace, demonstarting the modern approach to white which is both classic, feminie and modern. Acne's white ripped skinny jeans are also an example of how this summer's penchant for white is edgier and a little less suagr coated. As big fan of the dark side, donning the bright and white could be a little bit daunting, however this gorgeous Balmain jacket has thoroughly converted me. Leather, studded and boyfriend blazer style, this jacket could definitely tear me away from my trusty black biker jacket. At over �2,000 it's a little out of my price range so I might try and hunt down topshop's sold-out cream lether, gold studded biker jacket on ebay instead...
