pure as driven snow
Utterly without blemish
Pure as driven snow describes someone completely innocent, virtuous, or uncorrupted—especially regarding sexual conduct.
Driven snow is fresh-fallen snow blown into pristine drifts, untouched and perfectly white.
The phrase often carries ironic undertones, implying the person isn't quite as innocent as they appear: She acts pure as the driven snow, but I know better.
