Ivory/WinterWhite bags for Fall/Winter?

[temo]

I know every year this time of the season, this issue gets discussed, but what do you say this year? Anyone plan on doing it? (Except, of course, all you lucky ones who live where the weather is good.)

Sure! I have an off-white bag that will look great with my brown outfits. I don't mind off-white/cream (and have a winter coat in that color too); I just avoid stark white.

I wear off white/cream in the fall as long as it matches my outfit. I usually wear it during the day.

I think it depends on the texture and overall look.

A white leather bag with lots of hardware or fur is a lot different than a white straw bag

I generally don't have a problem with using white/ivory bags in the winter. I'm more concerned about the bag getting dirty though, because of all the melting snow and wet weather outside.

When I saw the thread title I immediately thought of the LV corail blanc vernis alma! That is such a beautiful bag, but I can't imagine myself using that in the winter time. Maybe it's because most of my winter clothes, the colours are very dull.

I think ivory/cream bags look great in the fall with the chocolate browns and beige outfits, but pure white looks much better in the summer to me. I'm dying for a new white bag, but I'll wait until the spring to get it.

Sure - Off-white or winter-white.

I think off white is definitely great for all seasons
I just love how white/off white bags during Falll & Winter look against darker colors & I definitely plan on doing it!

I absolutely love white & off white bags! I only have a pure white purse, but for some reason I don't really use my pure white purse that much during the Fall season. I use it quite a lot during the Winter months though (pure white reminds me of snow).

I am in cold and dry Canada, prairies, and here light suede and off white do not get dirty or wet..I carry them all the time

I live in the D.C. area, and I am starting to use my off-white patent purse tomorrow.

So, just having purchased a bright (milk) white woven leather bag with no hardware, I want to carry it when it arrives next week. So, what is the consensus? The bag is the color of fresh snow, which means I will match the landscape for quite a while (when we finally get snow)... I was thinking of tying a red ribbon on the strap for Christmas/Winter Solstice...

I love the way they look but have never ventured buying one. I do wear white (bone) however in the summer and love it!

As long as you can keep it clean I don't think it really matters. I have a bright white winter coat, its a nice change from all the dark, dreary winter colours.

Sounds lovely! Reminds me of peppermint.
