    Four Fashion Rules You Should Break

    Growing up we're told there are certain fashion "rules" we must obey. "Don't wear stripes with plaid." "No white after labor day." We blindly follow these edicts without questioning their validity, but in doing so we severely limit our sartorial options. Think of the number of perfectly good outfits you've left hanging in the back of your closet just because they fail to conform to one or more of these antiquated maxims. It's time to think outside the box, with our list of four fashion rules to break!

      No White After Labor Day

      Whoever first laid down this dictate obviously had not heard of winter white. There may be a brief period, in early fall, when we reach for darker, more somber colors (only because we're craving a moodier color palette after summer's barrage of pastels and brights), but winter weather's main squeeze?
