Its just a rule of thumb in the fashion world. Real people wear whatever they want no matter what day of the year it is. Don't fall into the trap, wear what makes you happy.

The only logical reasoning we could find cited temperature. Image consultant Nancy Penn suggests that because white reflects light and heat, wearing white would make you cooler in winter, and thus should be avoided. But others suggest the rule stems from a class issue. Acting Director of the Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology Valerie Steele notes that in the late 19th century and the 1950s, more people were entering the middle classes. These nouveau-riche folks were often unaware of the standards of high society, so they were given specific codified rules to follow in order to fit in.

That actually does not apply any longer. You see all the stars wearing white. They just don't think its a good thing to match the season so to speak. You can wear white all year round now! I do!

Because the fashion gurus say so.

You can, if you live in Puerto Rico!
