I have quite possibly tried on at least twenty pair of white denim over the last year. I am not exaggerating. I just can't seem to find a pair that don't heavily accentuate features that I typically try to keep under wraps. I have seen so many of you ladies rock the white denim, but I think I have all but given up.
Instead, I decided to go on a hunt for the perfect white skirt. Ironically, it didn't turn into a hunt at all. It appeared to me the day I left my shopping binoculars at home. I went into JcPenney's Sephora shop to replenish my Kat Von D foundation. As I was walking out the door, right there, on the outside aisle, this skirt was hanging with a big SALE sign above it. I went straight to the dressing room to try it on and then immediately proceeded to the checkout counter.
Forever 21 Stripe Crop Top (option here and here) // JcPenney's Worthington White Pleated Skirt (on sale) // The Daily Look Ankle Strap Heels (option here, here & a lower heel here) // Forever 21 Quilted Bag (option here and here) // Lilac Bijoux Rosette Necklace c/o sold out (option here and here) // Lilac Bijoux Bangles c/o (option here and exact here) // Gorjana Griffin Ring c/o // Forever 21 Sunglasses (option here)
SHOP THE LOOK
I suggest plenty of items to you ladies four-five days a week. It's what I enjoy doing, but this time, I am telling you, get this skirt. Do I sound a little pushy? Yes? Well, I can't apologize for it this time.
The fit, pleats, texture, material and style are extremely flattering. It sits right above the waist (perfect for a crop top) and draws in the waistline. Also, if you are not a fan of the midi-skirt trend, but are looking for a full skirt, this one is your winner. I am 5'7" and it hits me right above the knees. It's classic and I honestly don't see this style becoming outdated anytime soon. Did I mention it has pockets and doesn't wrinkle? They also have a petite option that I think will work as well, especially if you are looking for a shorter length.
P.S. This skirt also comes in black and both colors are on sale for $20. Go ahead and get them both!

Such a classic outfit that will stay around forever! You look lovely - as always! We don't have JC Penny here but I'm on the hunt for a similar skirt now! x

Hahaha, loved Alice's comment. I want that skirt too, btw. =)
You look gorgeous. Such a happy girly outfit. Love the skirt, necklace & heels and want all 3. =D
As always a pleasure linking up. Happy Hump Day!!
This is very simple and cute! I am excited that JCP has such great options now. I don't have a white skirt, but I think this one may be a staple. I can picture it styled several different ways, and that is key for me(: Susan
I totally agree with Alice! You are so bad for my wallet! I bought some leopard slip ons last week and now I'm loving that crop top!!! Actually, this whole look is my fave in a while. So pretty, fresh and springy!
I'm showing a similar purse this week for Glam Grunge.

LOVE this skirt - will have to check my local store later today. What size did you get?

OH MY GOODNESS THAT SKIRT IS FABULOUS! And it looks amazing on you. You are VERY convincing!!!!! :)
gorgeous! I love the "pops" of red!
Seriously! I tried on 3 pairs of white jeans yesterday...all awful. Have been on the hunt for a long while myself...and I refuse to give up! :)
LOVE this skirt. Sadly, no J.C. Penney in these here parts. Boo.
Now that is a crop top I can get behind! I need to check out F21! Also, every time I think of getting rid of my flower necklace, I see you wearing it and reconsider...haha.
White jeans are so hard to find. I love your white skirt and how you styled it with the red and black!
Looks so great on you, especially with the red shoes! I had a white skirt but it creased horribly so I got rid of it. Still looking for a replacement!! P x
Love this color combination. The black and white and the pops of red in this look just really work well together.

The cut of this skirt is PERFECTION! And only $20? I'm tempted to buy one for post-pregnancy wear!
It took me a good two years to find the perfect pair of denim jeans. I would suggest looking at the Loft. They have a cropped ankle zip jean that is perfect! I love the white skirt that you found though! So chic and your right it's not going to go out of style anytime soon! Great find!
Have a great day!

Girl, I'm about to give up on white denim, too. It's so hard to find a good pair!

The white skirt looks great on you! I've had a hard time finding a good pair of white pants too... I think part of it is that I have a huge phobia of wearing white because somehow it WILL get dirty. lol! Especially because I have a 15mth old daughter with sticky little hands. lol

What an amazing find! That skirt is perfect! I'm a few inches shorter though, so I think it would hit me in a much less flattering spot.
I own no white bottoms - the train is a dirty, dirty place, so I wouldn't wear them to work, and on weekends I'm pretty covered.
I feel the same way about white denim...so hard to find the right pair! I love your skirt. It's the best when what you are looking for finds you!

I need this skirt immediately. Good thing JCPenny is literally two minutes down the road from our house. I love how you styled it - very classic!
Love the classic colors and stripes in this outfit! What a cute skirt!
I LOVE this look! So pretty, chic, and those pops of red are amazing! Pinning now :)

White denim can be quite difficult - I agree. I have had the best luck with Gap. Their outlet pair of white skinny jeans is comfy & not see through! And the regular store - Always Skinny - is a flattering cut as well. Hope that helps!

SO crazy...I was cutting through JCP last night on the way to another store, and saw this skirt and was obsessed! Unfortunately they had nowhere near my size, but I just loved it. And I just saw you on my FB news feed wearing it and couldn't look at your post quick enough! It's so stinkin cute, and I love that the length is easily work appropriate.

Shanna. Girl. You look fabulous! I can't get over how every single outfit you post looks amazing...some fashion bloggers have a few posts that I'm not so sure about, but never with you! You always look gorgeous!

Gimme gimme gimme! But unfortunately, white and I are not good friends. I am messy! And I just have this undying love for my Nike shorts that always seem to trump items like this. Maybe Chris and I need to find more places to go where Nike shorts aren't acceptable...then I would have an excuse to buy skirts like this!!
This outfit is PERFECTION! Love it all! Especially the skirt!
In love with this entire look. Gorgeous as usual.
There is so much to love in this ensemble. You look amazing! I now need that skirt. (sending my husband to you once it shows up on our bank statement) HA!
LOOOOOOOVE it! I already told you this on Insta, but you look HOTT! It's the red against that white--amazing combo!
I love the white skirt - so cute. By the way, I was having such a tough time finding white jeans too, they are not very forgiving! But I found a pair I love last summer at Loft - they were the "Modern Fit". They are great! Give them a try

White denim is hard! I have a pair from Target that I love, but I have to wear longer tops with it to cover the hips;) You look great in this classic combo…those red shoes look awesome with that skirt!
Love this whole look!
I love this whole combo–the white/red/striped is a perfect combo!
So Funny! I was just at lunch, saw this skirt and had to have it. I couldn't believe it when I opened up your post. I agree - if you don't have this skirt Run and go get it!
LOVE the skirt! I've been tempted to get another white skirt but I already have like 3!
Love how you styled it too - so classy!

Pockets AND wrinkle-free?! Sign me up! And of course I love the striped top. And the shoes - fabulous!
Love the stripes with that necklace!
That skirt really is perfect, with the crisp white color and cute pleat! Love how you styled it with the stripes and red accents!
Love it! Simple and chic with perfect pops of color-- great look, Shanna!
I was seriously so excited to read this post when I saw your Instagram!! You look fabulous! A white skirt is on my wish list right now. unfortunately you told too many people to buy it and it is sold out in my size, haha! I will have to see if my actual store has one!

I love black, white and red so much, and this skirt is beautiful!!!
You can really find some great stuff at Pennys and they are always having a sale!
