A while back I had this huge argument with someone over something as flimsy as “dressing”. He suggested I do an all white look and I was already like “yah, maybe I should because I actually love the all white look and all but then he ruined it by stating his reason why he thinks I should do it. He said and I quote “because all bloggers are doing it”. That just set me off ( sorta like how the spasms of a tetanus patient is set off by any little stimulation). I mean suggesting I do something because its cool and I may like it is something else but suggesting I do it because “others” are doing it mahn that just didn’t sit right with me. Nah, I do not like that mindset at all!
Hey don’t get me wrong, sometimes I follow trends but I will never follow it because that’s what the cool kids other people are doing, i’ll only do it because I like it and it suits me. Ya dig?
Okay, now that I’ve ranted and gotten all that off *sprinkles love and cupcakes into the post at this point *. I’ll also like to apologize to him for shutting off his point of view and carrying on with mine like a mad woman, forgive me Tee.
So I finally decided to do an all white outfit to prove that I’m not some proud asshole like he may/may not be thinking now and also because like i said i totally love the all white look. And because I don’t have white pants or white sneaks you know how much I like the retro look, I went with this white pleated vintage skirt and a white sleeveless shirt.
Wore this to church today. The pictures are in black and white because i didn’t like how the surrounding looked

Hi Cassie! The look itself is great but I can't appreciate the all white part of it because your pictures are in black and white.
The pictures in colour would have made the white pop! Maybe you could upload a few. Just saying though. You look great as usual.:ô)

Love the Emerson quote 🙂 I think the outfit looks lovely & I'm glad you decided to do it because YOU wanted to; That makes the post even better. I'm helpless when it comes to pulling off all white. But I do love white/black – especially in the winter!

Yayy. Thank you!!
I love the scenery, in color and black/white!! The all white look is 'cool'.
It's actually good to step out of one's box once in a while. Even if you do follow trends, you can always pick and choose…to suit your style! 🙂
