white collar.

ordinarily, wearing white post-labor day might convince some that you should be wearing a white straightjacket. yes nikita, there are rules: keep your colorless dresses in the closet until next season, and call anything else you own winter white, i.e. a shawl-collar jacket from this seaon's versace runway.

big collar, big flare, big-belted (okay, big pricetag). we'd expect nothing less dramatic from donatella who should have named this catwalk item the-wear-until-your-friends-tear-off-your-back-collar jacket. yes, it's set to arrive stateside any day now, and with a waitlist potential that scales at about an eight.

stop the boo hoos, boho and get into something that you'll actually wear past next month's vogue. and remember, you can bask in your post-labor day tan all you'd like, but just not in your white jeans.
