Proof That White Pants Are a Must-Have in Your Fall Rotation

Crisp white pants are a no-brainer in the summertime—whether it’s a casual-cool cropped pair or trendy, office-friendly trousers. They’re the perfect base with which to build an outfit, and they never fail to look refined and sleek, regardless of the top you choose to team them with. But are you ready for the best part? They’re an all-season staple that can be worn year-round, which means you should hold off on packing away your white pants for fall and instead transition them into autumn by pairing them with other seasonal essentials—like an oversize sweater, statement coats, and ankle boots.
