How to find the perfect pair of white jeans
partner
I've been avoiding white
pants for years, for the usual reasons: I'm worried they'd
get dirty about five seconds after I put them on, and that
they'd make me look bottom-heavy. This spring weather is making
me reconsider, though. I love how fresh and crisp they look, and it
would be nice to have an alternative to my usual dark-rinse
denim.
8 spring trends and how to wear them
My friend Sam, who worked at a major denim brand for years and
is a total jeans expert, says that she keeps her white jeans tight
(in a pale hue, the looser the pair, the more frumpy the look, she
says) and washes them with every wear to keep them pristine.
A DIY laundry trick for your favorite wardrobe
pieces
J Brand's 10" Skinny might be it for me. They're
slim and devoid of labels and obvious embroidery. They hit right
around the ankle—to avoid stains, I don't want anything that
would possibly drag on the ground or catch on my shoe. I'm
picturing these with studded sandals and something along the lines
of
this Built By Wendy chambray shirt.

White jeans are one of my favorite trends this summer. I agree that they need to fit right (read: tight, but not too tight) to look great and sexy. I also wash them with every wear! Here are a few I love and recommend:
The Citizens of Humanity Ingrid Flare Jeans in white: http://www.fffabulous.com/2008/05/citizens-ingrid.html
And Small Town has great white jeans too: http://www.fffabulous.com/2008/05/small-town.html

white jeans are for skinny to fit people who are average.
overweight to obese people should stick to dark colored pants.
im not discriminating.. just being realistic here. if you're overweight, dont wear white jeans.

Oh WOW I just bought a great pair. LEVI no less! 501 superlow rise. Skinny and straight. No tag no label just the signature pockets. I had tried on m favorite brand which is Express MIA's and the white just didnt look right. I'm glad I put them back and went into Nordstrom's Levi's section.
