Effortlessly chic and perfect for dressing up or down on sunny days, white is the freshest update for your wardrobe this summer.
Whether you’re watching Wimbledon or not, white is always a huge summer colour. Simple and serene, crisp and clean, it’s an easy hue to incorporate into your style. Take the humble white shirt, one of the most versatile pieces you can own; styled down it’s smart for work and looks effortless with jeans, while dressed up with a statement necklace you’re instantly ready for a night on the tiles. Why stop there? White can be worked into your wardrobe from top to toe – and of course, we’re starting from the feet up.
Here are just a few reasons why you should consider starting with white shoes:
White shoes go with everything
It’s easy to add white footwear to an outfit when you’re wearing white clothing, but teaming them with contrasting black makes for a striking style. Take inspiration from sixties style with monochrome pumps. 
They’re timelessly modern
While fads and fashions might come and go, an all-white shoe is a perennial staple of style year in, year out. That’s not to say they never get better – Clarks Trigenic range features uniquely flexible soles developed scientific technology to create a giant leap forward in terms of both construction and comfort.
They’re a blank canvas
Liven up your white shoes with a bold pattern or print. Lively prints are big news for Spring/Summer 2016, so this is an easy way to work the trend. Be as daring as you like – nothing clashes with white. 
They’re unexpected
Many people prefer to wear dark colours on their feet because it’s practical, and because black footwear is also more widely available. However white adds unpredictable punctuation that styles up your outfit a notch – wear them as a semaphore of your enviably chic state.
They’re beautiful
Because every wardrobe should have something purely decorative, rather than just functional, that’s so gorgeous it could be considered a work of art in itself. Enter the Clarks V&A collection: every single style is a masterpiece.
They’re versatile
Picture these white loafers with chinos. Good. Now, cuffed denim jeans. We like. What about skirts? Long – check. Midi – that works too. The flat heel of these loafers will even temper a thigh-skimming dress. And the crystal-white leather is the perfect neutral to the rainbow bright chain trim, helping them blend effortlessly with every outfit.
They reflect light
Even in summer we’re lucky to get a full day of glorious sunshine in Britain, so we need to make the most of it while we can. White surfaces reflect the full spectrum of light, helping to brighten your mood – and making those metallic details really shine!
They’re nomadic
There is something about wearing casual white mules that is fitting with a European environment. Just picture it – relaxing on a cobbled Italian street, the sun blazing down from the cloudless sky, cocktail in hand…
They’re romantic
Connoting innocence and purity, white is often used in romantic settings – take weddings as a prime example. This pair, rendered in bold, ultra-modern laser cuts, are beautiful but with enough of an edge to make them feel contemporary while maintaining a lacy, ethereal air.
The future, as they say, is white. Shop white shoes online.
