| Whatever
the many meanings and associations of white, one thing’s
for sure: It’s a brilliant color—and the ideal
symbol of summer. Of linen, cotton and silk. White Peonies.
White topaz. The moon, sand and pearls. Doves. Peace. The
walls of a fine art exhibit. A fresh beginning.
Summer
has arrived, and so has white. Let’s embrace white in
all its brilliance. White alone deserves a compliment: It
looks beautiful alone, together or in contrast with any color.
It could be said to have that universal appeal. So here are
a few things to keep in mind as you refresh your summer wardrobe:
SUMMER
MUST-HAVES
This summer into fall, white is the way. Wear it well: white
dresses and skirts in linen and cotton, organza and silk.
White tunic, tank and halter tops. |

TREND
SPOTTER
Remember leggings? The post-Flashdance, calf-length
ones made popular in the 80s? Well, they’re back,
but not at the gym. Wear them under a dress to create
a connection between the hem of your dress and your
ballet flats, sandals or Espadrilles.
DO'S
+ DON'T
Do enjoy the great outdoors, but don’t overexpose
yourself to the almighty sun. What was once coined sun
worshipping is the direct cause of different levels
of skin cancers caused by damage from harmful ultraviolet
rays in sunlight. Do wear sun protectant, and do re-apply
often! At Ziba Beauty, we recommend the Solar Defense
System from Dermalogica.
