Couldn’t help but quickly blog about this pair of silk-twill high-waisted white pants from our favorite brand 3.1. Phillip Lim, on sale now at THE OUTNET.  These beauties are 100% silk and only $150 — and even better, have that perfect silhouette so synonymous with the brand. We love the way they styled it with a marled tank and white blazer, though we’d also pair it with a simple white tank, slick black leather jacket, and this pair of amazing wedges.

INSPIRATION BOARD:  Black & White It’s our belief that moods in fashion tend to work in opposites — so as excited as we are to milk color out of every last moment we can before Fall officially begins, we’ve also been obsessed as of late by the clean lines and striking combination of stark black and white. Demonstrated with aplomb by two of our former STYLE STALKER icons, Sunyoung Jang of MissPouty.com and most recently Linda Fargo of Bergdorf Goodman, the look is equal parts 60s-inspired mod and modern day chic.  It’s easy and effortless with a single piece like a simplecolorblock dress, as well as in separates like a sheer striped top or a structured white blazer.

HOW TO WEAR IT:  Whites @ Work Inspired by our chic workwear guru Anh of 9to5Chic, we started thinking about the perfect summer outfits for the office — and given with our recent obsession with light-colored neutrals, the concept of whites at work was the perfect combination of what we’re dying to wear right now. One of our favorite French labels Carven really did this trend justice with their SS2011 cotton, crepe, and silk separates, spun up in the absolute perfect shade of creamy white — with substantial silhouettes that fit amazingly well and really make an outfit feel noticeably special. We love the idea of investing in these three key pieces (a skirt, blazer, and cropped pant — now on sale, thanks to NET-A-PORTER!) and mixing and matching them all season long with other key outfitting items. Some of our suggestions include a simple silk blouse, nude leather sandals and totes, and delicate gold accessories, like this classic menswear-inspired watch.
