It's not like I have money to go buy different colored bras just to follow a rule like no whites after Labor's Day. So I say, Heck yes. If I can wear white bras, why not white socks too? (I just checked, I am wearing white socks) And I also get confused... how long after Labors Day does that rule apply?<br /><br />Once upon a time I would follow rules like that. But then living in poverty just really changed me a lot. You had to do what you had to do. You had to survive. Things like that just stopped being important to me. My priorities changed and I got a horrible reality check. <br /><br />Haven't been able to change back for some reason. Maybe it is the fear of going back into poverty that I don't want to lose everything all over again. Not sure. But I remember how fun it would be to hold onto rules like that.

I have never been a white shorts, pants, capris wearer so no issue there. White shoes in winter, nope. I do wear winter white. But I pretty much wear what I want. I don't follow any rules when it comes to clothes. I just wear comfy. I have a white cotton v-neck sweater, I will be wearing it tonight with jeans for dinner with family.<br /><br />Good Morning Kim!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-36212334218550706742013-09-03T08:47:32.663-03:002013-09-03T08:47:32.663-03:00That I love is what I meant to type!!!That I love is what I meant to type!!!Alice ~ Folk Art Primitiveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16665925544333050591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-31021413390584742242013-09-03T08:46:54.585-03:002013-09-03T08:46:54.585-03:00Just when I decided I could wear white anytime ~ n...Just when I decided I could wear white anytime ~ now, what to do, what to do!

I can hear my grandmother's voice to loud in my head. I mean after all rules is rules. <br />So of course every thing will be put away until spring. <br />Do you know the first post I ever read that you wrote was white after Labor Day. I was so happy because I felt like the only dinosaur in the world that still followed that rule. :)Farm Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998621464797636686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-63463902918761315672013-09-02T23:00:32.328-03:002013-09-02T23:00:32.328-03:00I have been wrestling with myself on whether I can...I have been wrestling with myself on whether I can still wear my white capris.

I'll wear white pants or shorts as long as it's warm. I'm not bothered by what others people wear and I wear a lot of black any way. I'm not a fad follower and do pretty much as I please within reason. I do not try to bring attention to myself but like to be comfortable. It must be my old age. I just feel good in my skin, it's not too tight and has plenty of room to spare, lol. I found that the older I get, the less I care what others think. If they don't approve, it's their problem and not mine. I know that life is made for living.<br />Hugs,<br />JB<br /><br /><br />Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423754263165266554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-67556761667590090802013-09-02T21:22:54.613-03:002013-09-02T21:22:54.613-03:00My mother always had the same rule - no white afte...My mother always had the same rule - no white after Labor Day, and for sure white came out after Memorial Day.

Also, the white, seersucker-type cropped pants as well as that white summery jacket. I will be wearing some "winter" white pants, particularly around festive times, with bright, jewel-toned tops. Probably due to my "conditioning" from years past, but I just feel more comfortable with these choices.:-)Nelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00731594872663348711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3417359688941324284.post-15505092754016190202013-09-02T20:49:59.029-03:002013-09-02T20:49:59.029-03:00My Mother was strict on these rules and I have
