I have this thing for sweet white dresses. It must be some never-had-a-first-communion-or-quinceañera-complex. Although there is this:

White clothing is probably the most impractical apparel choice for a long day in New York City (at least for a subway riding peon like myself), but I can't help myself.

This summer there is a plethora of white frocks to spill soy sauce on. I want them all.
Aliyah Crinkled Cotton Dress - Marc by Marc Jacobs
Bella Solid Dress - Delia's
Women's Gathered Tea-length Dress - Old Navy
Eyelet Trim Dress - Rebecca Taylor
Reina Dress - Trina Turk
Berdine Eyelet Dress - Tory Burch
Daybreaker Dress - Madewell
Linnia Tie-Front Shirtdress - Diane von Furstenberg
Oh, and I say PSHAW to the archaic no white after Labor Day rule. In fact, come winter, I would pair any of these dresses with opaque black tights, black booties or mary janes, and a cardi/blazer option.
