Wear White Jeans for Special Events + Lots of Sales
Happy Friday!! Let’s discuss today why to wear white jeans for special events this summer.
Now that things are beginning to open up…I am receiving more and more event invites.
Wearing white jeans so far has been a good choice ….as I always run into others doing the same.
ENJOYING MY FOXCROFT WHITE JEANS
The more I wear these Foxcroft Downtown Straight Leg Stretch White Jeans, the more I like them!
They are comfortable…wear well…wash well…and fit great. I am very pleased and feel confident when dressed like this for a special event.
White jeans are beautiful dressed up or down and make a great choice for almost any event you will attend this summer.
THIS DILLARD’S SPECIAL EVENT
Of course, this Dillard’s Event was to introduce influencers to a new collection and Micquelle of Micquelles.must.haves (R) looks awesome in the Short Sleeved Striped Midi Dress dress she tried on.
In the first picture, Erin of Cathedrals & Cafes is wearing the Citrus Tiered Maxi Dress in this collection.
This new collection is a collaboration with Dallas influencer, Kimberly Whitman, and Antonio Melani.
“Exclusive to Dillard’s, Kimberly Whitman for Antonio Melani draws inspiration from the vibrant colors and florals that Kimberly incorporates into her beautiful tablescapes, along with the thoughtful interior pieces and artwork that adorn her home. The lively collection features feminine prints, strong colors and classic dresses in every length, perfect for summer days and entertaining evenings.” Here is more from the collection…look at the first picture of the coolest way to wear your scarves…what a great accessory!
THE DRESS I LIKED
I love this Bryn Walker Winslow Light Linen Dress in a vibrant purple.
Sadly, I wish the sleeves were longer. If you look to the left at my arm, you will see that not lifting heavier weights the past 16 months is taking its toll.
I love this dress, but did not like the appearance of my arms. I did size down for those who might be interested.
This is a Misses size, but it is available in Plus Size as well.

KEEP SMILING!!
By Pamela Lutrell
I like your hair Pam. I remember you saying you are embracing the waves and it’s really a pretty look. I enjoy wearing white jeans and the fact that they go well with absolutely everything! The purple dress looks very light and pretty for summer. I’m looking for summer dresses and tops with sleeves also. I have so many sleeveless things but these days prefer having a sleeve. Leaving in a few hours for our annual shopping weekend with my sister, list and Foundational Five in hand!!
Have fun Karen! Please report back how it went. So many great sales right now!
Pam, don’t worry about your arms! I am 66, and my arms look like yours, but I have decided that the world is ready to accept older arms–think of all the plus size acceptance that is all around us. Add some bangles and a necklace or bold earrings (necklaces can be unpleasant in the heat) and maybe a hat, and enjoy the summer.
Thanks Susan…your encouragement is appreciated!!
I agree about the length of sleeves on most dresses being too short. Elbow length or 3\4 length is my preferred sleeve length as I am a 64 year old woman who has loose upper arms, AND the funds to buy any becoming dress or top that I desire. It is unfortunate that designers do not recognize the changing needs of women as their bodies age. I do not want to wear a shrug, sweater, or jacket with a dress because the sleeves are too short!
I am the same way with most dresses, Donna…the design of the dress is everything. Some toppers can add 10 years to us! Thanks for being here.
Wow, Pam, you look absolutely, stunningly fantastic in your white jeans outfit! What a great choice of accessories. Love this look on you! You look fabulous in strong colors and high contrasting combos. As for the dress, it’s in your signature color and it’s flattering. I don’t dislike your arms in it, and in hot weather it’s hard to cover up. But the key component is you. If you get talked into something that you like, but it makes you uncomfortable for some reason, that item will simply live in your closet until you finally overcome the guilt at spending the money and just declutter it. Ask me how I know :/.
Linda, thank you so much!! I really appreciate your comment.
I agree with the ladies..the dress looks fabulous and who cares what our upper arms look like..I think we older ladies have to get over that hang up and enjoy the fact that we are alive and happy!!
You are right Dee! The arm thing is new for me but I promise to journey on with confidence!!
When I scrolled to you in that purple dress, I thought, Wow, Pam needs to own that dress! I never once noticed your arms until you mentioned it. You look stunning and vibrant in that dress. Please reconsider because it’s a show stopper!! No one will be looking at your arms, they’ll be looking at your gorgeous smile and how amazing you look.
Awwww that is so sweet my friend! I will see if it is still at the store!!
