Remember those days when people would dress in suits to go on an airplane. I saw a picture of Yankee Stadium taken in the late 40's. Everyone in stands had a suit and hat. The gals wore dresses. To a ball game??? Gimmie a break.

Like Bob Dylan said "The times they are a changin" Thank God for that. Wear whatever you want. The fashion police will not write you up in the Villages.

I've been lurking on this forum and we're looking forward to our preview in October. I wasn't sure about white in Florida (we're in PA) and it was great to search to get my answer. This is a great forum and I appreciate being able to get a feel for the community prior to visiting. It's very active, covers every topic, and thank everyone for keeping those of us outside so well informed.

I wear white clothing and other light colors all year round. Love the Florida lifestyle!
Same for wearing sandals daily except on a few really cold mornings.

I wear white all year in Florida. I don't wear white up North or when I'm in Europe unless it's Summer.

I am currently in Michigan and with the temp in the 90's , I am still wearing white. We are leaving for our home in TV the end of the month, so along with me are whie pants and shoes. White is for warm weather, no matter where you are.

I wear whatever I want whenever I want. I live in the NE so certainly I'm not wearing sandals when my feet would be could. But I'm a thinking human being and don't need some horrible fashion designer to tell me what to wear and when.
