How to Style White Sunglasses

White sunglasses are more than just a summer accessory – they’re a year-round statement piece that adds a touch of effortless cool to any outfit.  You may think that they are too bold for you, but trust me, these work with every outfit, complexion and style. 

Whether you’re looking for chic, bold, or casual vibes, these standout shades are a must-have in your fashion arsenal. In this post, I show you how to style white sunglasses in 2024 and elevate your look. Let's dive in:

In the world of fashion, sunglasses are often the go-to accessory that completes any look. But why white? White sunglasses add a pop of brightness and contrast that black or tortoiseshell frames simply can’t compete with.

Loewe Greenhouse, Marbella Club Hotel

Tucked away through the lush gardens of the iconic Marbella Club Hotel, is the Loewe Greenhouse, a luxe, home accessories oasis which is an offshoot of the brand's popular leather goods line.  The structure is a literal greenhouse, filled with botanical plants, perfumes, home fragrances, candles, lotions, and bar soaps.  Two young salespersons are at the helm. They inform me that the marihuana scent is unsurprisingly the top seller.  This scent, like the others, can be found in all of the products sold here. With scents like WasabiTomato Leaves, Incense, and Cypress Balls, there's something for everyone.  Can you guess what I picked up?

The Colony Hotel West Palm Beach & Swifty's Restaurant Review

We recently stopped by the iconic Colony Hotel in West Palm Beach to have brunch at Swifty's Restaurant, their on-site eatery, which offers great fare in a chic and relaxed pool-side setting.  Swifty's Palm Beach carries on in the spirit of the beloved New York, Upper East Side institution that closed in 2016.  

For breakfast, I recommend the Full Vegan Colony Breakfast or The Benedicts (sauce on the side, of course!) or The Colony Breakfast (photo below). If you're hungrier, start off with some Gazpacho, or go with the Bacon Wrapped Designer Meatloaf as an entree. 

After you've finished eating, stop in for some shopping at the Dolce & Gabbana boutique inside the hotel.

For brunch, I wore a cutout top from Tularosa which is a few year's old and a draped, loose sage green skirt from Zara (I found a similar one on Amazon and an almost identical one here.)

 Also, I'm bringing back the turban trend from 2012! This one is from Ulta. My metallici clutch bag is the only new item featured in these photos. I've linked similar items below.An easy vacation outfit using a maxi skirt

There is not one square inch of this hotel that is not covered in something chic. From the wallpaper to light fixtures, upholstery and the accent plants - they thought of it all.  There's a Dolce & Gabbana boutique in the hotel lobby, monkey and flamingo wallpaper throughout. And talk to me about the beautiful pink marble interiors in the bathroom? Unique and beautiful.  Also, my outfit was unintentionally retro which matched the theme. 

The styling on this outfit is all about the loose pieces that drape in different ways.  I also feel like a boxy, lace cut-out top, like the one I'm wearing here, is a summer staple. You can style it in so many ways, such as with high

Easy Vacation Outfit featuring Farm Rio & Maria La Rosa

Here is an easy vacation outfit featuring the this blue and white maxi dress by Farm Rio. It's perfect, unique and great quality. 

The dress has minimal give and runs true to size. This dress has cutouts throughout at the waistline and zips up the back.  It's a versatile dress because it works for both day and night.  I paired the dress with some Stuart Weitzman pink sandals and a new bag by Maria La Rosa - the Game Clutch in the color Cielo.  

I am obsessed with how roomy this clutch is and how you can opt to use it with or without the chain strap. The inside has one tiny interior pocket which is credit card sized. It's got a ton of space, and you can easily fit your phone, camera along with all of the other essentials.

Christmas outfit ideas for little girls using knee high socks


Holiday Outfit ideas for a Toddler girl:

  • Opt for more unexpected colors, other than red. Try deep purples or forrest greens.
  • Tartan plaid is a classic holiday pattern but can be updated by mixing in some navy and white stripes or adding a piece that's a solid color, like heather gray.
  • Mary Janes paired with knee high socks are always beautiful and exude classic, little girl style. Her shoes are from Amazon, linked below. The Gap has a nice pair as well.
  • A Peter Pan collar is a traditional and classic style that can be spruced up for the holidays by adding some fun Christmas pins (make sure they have a safety-back).  You can even try detachable collars in a plaid print.
