Lands End Canvas is usually good for summer tees. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836459 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 20:33:30 +0000 Glory 836459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have white jeans from Joe Fresh and they have been great.

My cuffs get dirty quickly so I almost always scrunch up my sleeves on long sleeved stuff or wear 3/4 sleeves. And before I buy, I ALWAYS read the care tag. Other than a skirt, I would probably never buy anything white that is dry clean only since I would be afraid to wear it, and I hate paying dry cleaning bills.</p> <p>Oh, and no matter the garment price, beware of the orange staining power of some sunscreens. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836447 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 20:09:14 +0000 siniestra 836447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanx for u replies !!!

I bleach my white denim jacket every so often and it works keeping it white. White long sleeve tops and me don't get along and I go for clearance t shirts for myself because of constant replacement.<br /> White accessories are a good idea - white watch, white scarf? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836209 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 17:08:37 +0000 rute 836209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zara has some nice pieces, the price is not very expensive and the quality not bad! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836208 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 17:08:19 +0000 Thistle 836208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you ever considered consignment? I know I have donated white items, worn only a handful of times, because white is enlarging for me in all the wrong places! </p> <p>Another option would be to hunt sales racks at higher end stores. I have found a lot of white in my area at the end of the season. </p> <p>Like Kris said, cheap white is really going to show. Also, white requires a bit more care. I only buy white items I don't mind tossing after a year of use. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836200 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 17:04:46 +0000 krishnidoux 836200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Siniestra, it's true that white clothing, to look good, has to be of better quality (which means more $$$) both in fabric and in cut. I have learned it the hard way through the years. Too thin and it is see through. Poorly cut and the visual result is an eye sore. I have thrown away so many cheap white pieces! I don't know what to tell you because I've never been able to find satisfactory cheap white items, although they abound in slightly higher price ranges. My strategy has been to first identify which pieces I needed most, save up for this piece and shop carefully. </p> <p>For me, the key pieces have been: white skinnies, white purses, white glasses and a white watch. The two last items were not cheap, let me tell you, but oh so useful every day. I think the CPW for them really gets down to a few specks of dusts of a cent. </p> <p>But on my list still are: white jacket, cute white tee, and white booties. Hmmm.... feeling a bit of Angie's influence here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836190 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 16:56:13 +0000 amiable 836190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with you - I'm having a hard time finding white too, and not willing to pay much of anything for them, because I know they'll be ruined quickly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836188 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 16:54:37 +0000 Emily 836188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pair of white jeans from Joe Fresh that were &lt;$30, I've had them for probably 4 years now and they've held up quite well for the handful of times I wear them each year. Unfortunately only available in Canada/NY/New Jersey, but if you find yourself in the vicinity of a Joe Fresh retailer, I'd check it out... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836146 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 16:31:56 +0000 siniestra 836146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>im cool with all kind of white from pants to button down i just need white hahaha from price range up to $25 lol i super cheap :/ plus i think forever21 has to do with this lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836135 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 16:27:34 +0000 Adelfa 836135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What items are you looking for? Button-downs? pants? If you're really on a budget I would try Target. They have some really nice classic items in a variety of colors. I know it sounds funny, but I just posted on another post how I get a lot of compliments on my Target items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836129 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 16:26:01 +0000 Kristin L 836129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I try to avoid all white clothing (except for undershirts) like the plague because I can't keep it clean. I've started washing my whites with baking soda along with my normal detergent and that seems to make them look whiter for longer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/white-clothing-sigh-so-hard-to-find-when-u-are-looking-in-cheap#post-836121 Fri, 01 Feb 2013 16:22:51 +0000 siniestra 836121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I been trying to look for white clothing all year around but it's really hard to find with this type of body ... plus im a hot mess lol when is about white i pretty much get dirty and lets talk about after care :/ Seriously i might have like 3 whites and that's all anyone have good advice on white and where to find cheap good ones? thanxs!! </p>
