Gone are the days of keeping your white pants tucked away in the bellows of your closet until Labor Day. As of late, it's all about wearing white year round. And also gone are the days of only wearing one shade of white; instead, the trend is veering towards mixing white hues together, as demonstrated byAngelina Jolie.

Last night at CinemaCon's annual state of the industry event in Las Vegas, Jolie showed up in a mismatched white flowy silhouette, consisting of a cream-colored silk blouse and pair of bright-white pants by Juan Carlos Obando- a look that made us want to dive into our closets and pull out every shade of white we have, in hopes of dreaming up a similar white concoction.

The trick to pulling off this look? "White is a neutral just like black, but at the opposite spectrum - so treat it the same way," says stylist Eric Himel.

Here are four tips to pulling off a look like Angelina's:

-For a luxe, sophisticated look, wear white in head-to-toe monochromatic.

-To break the look up, try layering a white texture on solid white or incorporate interesting shapes.

- Don't be afraid of pairing white shoes with an all white outfit!

- The simplicity of wearing head-to-toe white necessitates picking luxe fabrics.
