A rebel in white

Rules are meant to be broken!

ESPECIALLY when it comes to fashion.

  • Never where black with navy
  • Always match your shoes and bags
  • You can’t wear suede or leather in summer
  • Never wear white after labor day
  • Don’t wear tights with open-toed shoes

SERIOUSLY? These rules must have been written around the same time as The Declaration of Independence, and most certainly by the forefathers living in New England. They never had to go out in 80 degrees in the winter.

I’m throwing FASHION ETIQUETTE right out the window.

Did you know that this “rule” was created way back in the Gilded Age period in American history (late 1800s, early 1900s)? Back then, wearing white was a symbol of wealth. The “laborers” had to work through the summer, while the wealthy business owners could spend their summers at the shore – wearing white. In September they packed up their summer homes (think the Breakers in Newport) and donned suits and ties once again.

So, I’m throwing caution to the wind and I wear white YEAR ROUND.

To keep my white’s their whitest (and my colors looking their best) I’ve switched to  Tide VIVID White + Bright. . It the detergent not only brightens my all-season whites, but it also removes stains without the yellowing effect that chlorine bleach can have over time. I also drop in a Tide VIVID White + Bright Boost, to my laundry that has gotten VERY stained (yes, I’ve been known to spill red wine on my white shirt, especially when I’m laughing with the girls – whoops!).

I may not be James Dean, but if you think that I’m wearing black mid-winter when it’s HOT outside, you’ve got me ALL WRONG, and it’s not just ME who’s bucking the system…

Tide has enlisted the help of actress Betty White, the ultimate Hollywood rule breaker, to spread the word about Tide VIVD White + Bright. Betty is notorious for pushing limits, and in Tide VIVID’s new ads she breaks some of the most infamous rules of white – such as only using chlorine bleach to care for white clothing, not using bronzer while wearing white and not wearing white after Labor Day

Are you a RULE BREAKER AS WELL?

The next time you’re out shopping for laundry detergent follow the Champagne Living RULE and pick up some Tide VIVID White + Bright. You’ll have them gasping “she’s wearing white in January”!

    I love the way Tide makes my laundry smell, but it’s so darn expensive that I hardly ever get to use it. Tide is the only detergent that I can smell on my clothes after washing and putting in my drawers. I would love to win this so I could use Tide again. I hope I win 🙂

    Tide is the best and I like the clean smell it leaves on my clothes. Since we need to do laundry why not do it right? To me that means using Tide. I just wish it was cheaper.

    My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on numerous websites for about a year and am nervous about switching to another platform. I have heard very good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
