True Fashion People Are Rule Breakers—8 Ways They're Wearing White Denim Now

There was a time when wearing white jeans at any time of year besides the summer was a true fashion faux pas. White jeans were for summer, and blue jeans were for everything else—no room for debate. While many traditional folks still buy into this narrative, fashion people tend to disagree. What can we say? We like to break the rules. Wearing white jeans whenever it feels like the right time to put them on is exactly what I would expect from the fashion crowd, and I've been seeing a lot of it lately.

With the vanilla-girl aesthetic *still* all over my FYP, there hasn't been a better time to wear white denim in any which way that you like it. Whether you're after the "winter whites" look or you're going for a wardrobe revamp, these eight outfits will inspire your white-denim adventures.
