From there, you can either explore the Meguro shops or easily connect to the JR Yamanote line that circles greater Tokyo.

I just got back a couple of days ago, having spent several days in Osaka, then a few more in Tokyo. Both were extremely simple to navigate via metro.
I did the same once, but realized it wasn't worth the $2 to get from Shirokanedei to Meguro. I'd only really use Shirokanedei station if I was going somewhere that wasn't on the Yamanote line.
