Is it acceptable to wear white slacks or capris in Aug/Sept in Alaska?

Q: Is it acceptable for a woman to wear white slacks or capris in August/September? —Gloria

A: Gloria, absolutely! Alaska is a casual place. You can wear whatever you want up here. We don't judge people based on their appearance in Alaska. It's probably the least conformist culture of any state in the country.

If your question has to do with temperature, you will also need warmer layers that time of year. If you want more information about the weather in any Alaska town, I encourage you to try the Alaska.org Weatherplanner. It allows you to compare the temperature, rainfall, and daylight hours for any Alaska town to your hometown. Give it a try and let me know whether this helps.
