Winter is coming.

POSTED BY DEE CUNNING

If you've always thought white is the absence of color, you're wrong, girl. It's actually the inclusion of all color – you know, the same way white light is made up of the spectrum. Say that to the next fool who calls your frosty creps basic, and know that they represent all of the many facets of your personality. Evoking all things heavenly and pure from the outside, white sneakers are also the perfect tool for feigning innocence: the ideal choice for stepping out to break boys' hearts. Oh and, you know, they go with absolutely anything. Fancy yourself as an incognito ice queen? Check out our top-eight pick of the best white sneakers around.
