Think your white pants are only for casual summer days? Think again.
I’ve styled white chinos for four different types of occasions to demonstrate their versatility – proving a pair of crisp white pants or jeans is a solid investment even during the cooler months.
Layering in greys to soften a stark white plus these grey woollies blend in an irresistible texture that makes your white pants truly trans-seasonal.
Shopping day: Pack a long-line grey or black cardigan or pair this outfit with your reliable white trainers if you’re really pounding the pavement for a big day out!
