Celebrities Wearing White Summer 2012

We're not ones to adhere to the seasonal rules of white, but there is something to be said for the arrival of Summer and the return of the LWD, white pants, and all kinds of styled plays on the traditionally seasonal hue. Nothing looks quite so chic as a crisp white short suit or a creamy white dress on a hot Summer day. As proof of that, we've rounded up over 20 of our favorite celebrity moments — all in white. Some are red-carpet worthy, others of the everyday variety, but in each case, these style setters inspire our own Summer-ready white ensembles.
