White pants are a no-go for me. Before or after Labor Day, it does not matter--I very seldom see a white-pants-outfit that works.
The issue is this: white draws too much attention. While black is a slimming color, white is blinding. It draws the eye, it is too bright and big and glaring. In my opinion, white is too loud for pants. There are a few exceptions (check out our fashion Pinterest board), but the general rule is this: white pants don't have a place in my style.
There are also the logistical problems. White dirties easily, undergarment colors show through, and it's all-around stressful--which is, again, something fashion should not be. Fashion is an escape, not a box.
My philosophy: let white be your go-to for interior decorating--paint, furniture, etc. But for clothes, pick black.
