Me, too.
For crying out loud, OP, wear whatever you want!

The only thing I don't wear is white shoes after labor day. I have no issue with white skirts or linen until it cools down a little. After all, it would be dumb to break out the wool and corduroy and flannel now. Too hot!

That rule is so f'ing dumb. It's hot, it's summertime, wear what you feel good in.

I wouldn't wear white after Labor Day, but I also have enough clothes that I could find another light weight skirt besides white. I'm sure you can too.

How do you know they observe this "rule"?

Well, I really don't have many nice things. I will find something else. I am sorry that I asked.

I wouldn't do it. But I am one of those "old southern women".

Are you talking about Daughters of the Confederacy 80 year old former debutantes? Maybe they will care.

If not, the fact they are southern is not really relevant.

Bah. Outdated. There's now "winter" white" and I have a pair of white ponte work dresses that I am totally planning on wearing once it cools down a little.

As long as you remember your gloves, pearls and a fetching little hat you will be just fine

Not at all. That "rule" has long since been outdated.

I have a business casual event this week with the kind of people who observe the no white after Labor Day rule. Seriously, it is hotter than it has been all summer. Will these ladies still judge me if I wear my nice white skirt?
