I've just found out the party we're going to tonight is casual dress not smart. All my jeans except last years' white ones are pretty tatty. So what do you think, are white jeans okay or not?

I personally stay away from white as I attract dirt like nothing you have ever seen. However, they do look smart, and if you like them, wear them!

80sMum · 18/08/2012 16:46

White jeans are lovely for a warm summer evening. A slightly more dressy top than you'd wear in the day time and you're sorted! Enjoy the party!

shockers · 18/08/2012 16:52

Agree with 80sMum.

I love white jeans just don't spill any food down them as I usually do. Blush

CurlyKiwiControl · 18/08/2012 16:56

Perfect :)

Don't drink red wine or eat and you'll be fine lol

lycheejelly · 18/08/2012 17:00

Thank you all. The only reason they are still presentable, monsterchild, is because I never wear them because they are so impractical!

Grim. I'd never be seen dead in a pair.

Secret7 · 18/08/2012 17:10

Sorry. Remind me of old ladies and Liz Hurley. Don't like at all.

AGilchrist · 18/08/2012 17:19

I love my 3/4 white jeans. I did until I helped out at dhs restaurant before going into town. Was not a good idea. I have to come home and change.

MyLastDuchess · 18/08/2012 17:29

Perfect for this weather!

JustTheRightAmountOfWrong · 18/08/2012 18:41

Love White jeans, especially worn with mink (colour, not fur) or navy.. Can be chic if worn with the right accessories, etc. Can look try hard / liz hurleyesque if worn with high heels, however.

I live in my skinny whites with ash jalouse boots.

StepAwayFromTheEcclesCakes · 18/08/2012 18:42

yes go for it Smile

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 18/08/2012 18:43

I don't like them. Very hard to get right and very easy to get very, very wrong.

MerryCosIWonaGold · 18/08/2012 18:43

Bit Essex imho

AvonCallingBarksdale · 18/08/2012 18:47

If I had the legs and stomach for them, then I would be a yes! But I don't, sadly Smile

MardyArsedMidlander · 18/08/2012 18:47

Best way to get your period to start Grin

Icelollycraving · 18/08/2012 18:49

Perfect for Liz Hurley. Not my bag but if you are happy in them,wear them with confidence :)

GhostShip · 18/08/2012 19:57

They're horrible.

waterwatereverywhere · 18/08/2012 20:04

I'm very envious of people that can wear white (any white - jeans, tops, linen trousers) I only have to have them on for 18 seconds and dirt will have miraculously appeared from nowhere (I wore a white top to work the other day. It rained. My recently coloured hair ran and I had a purple streak all the way down my back all day)

But yes, I think they can look very summery and chic if teamed with the right footwear - nothing too high or trashy, and an elegant floaty top.

ToadsPornFrogsPawn · 18/08/2012 21:59

Only to be worn if you are in a tampon advert!

aquashiv · 18/08/2012 22:02

White jeans are great I love mine never ever wear them in the vacinity of children though. I had a bloody a foot print on my arse when out in mine last week.

TheFogsGettingThicker · 18/08/2012 23:01

I like them, I have a 3/4 length pair and full length ones.

My DH likes my arse in them.Grin
