layered white.

wearing a white on a hot day will keep me cool, right?
wrong.
the idea that white keeps you cool is somewhat of a myth, and i tell you why on mobile morsels. i mean, ever wonder why many arctic animals are white? certainly makes me re-think my summer whites. in any case, it just looks cooler, wouldn't you agree? plus it makes the perfect backdrop for a colorful necklace like this one.

Love those pants! Ugh, I'm so afraid of wearing white sometimes, but this is awesome.

I think in the super hot heat, it doesn't matter what you wear, it's just hot! Either way you look super cool and the necklace is great paired with the whites. I really love your shoes too!

Ha, I feel stupid. I always believed that myth and just thought I was a freak for it not working on me. LOL I love the punchy pants with this otherwise neutral look!

Hahaha interesting point! :D I guess it all comes down to the material you wear. :-)

Love white during summer though.

Never thought about if white cools or not - to be honest here in Bavaria we haven´t really often totally hot days so I can´t give a statement to this topic ;) But I like to wear white shirts, especially in summer and I love it how you combined it with your coloured pants <3 And the necklace is great!

Pretty outfit. I find fabric, not color, affects coolness.
