Want a sure-fire way to stand out in the sea of LBDs? Try layering shades of cream and gold for a simple, luxurious outfit that will get you noticed.

Monochromatic ensembles tend to be lengthening, so between the high waisted wide pants and sky-high pointy toe stilettos your legs will look miles long. I've used a short sleeve silk shirt so the body won't be totally overwhelmed with these super wide trousers. Top with a sharp cream coat, and add some rich gold accents.
Beauty-wise, you'll want perfect creamy skin. Try this milky cleanser from Sisley and a festive Hourglass berry lipstick.
