There's something about wearing all white or cream that just screams expensive. Whereas other neutrals like black, navy, gray, or brown can often leave you blending into your surroundings, an ivory outfit always stands out, making you the richest-looking person in any room. It's a little trick fashion people have adopted over the years that comes in handy whenever temperatures start to drop. Why? Because the most luxe way to wear all cream is with a cream coat—period.
For proof that this styling method works every time, see the three A-listers who all used it this month alone. First, Selena Gomez was spotted leaving dinner at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica wearing a long cream coat with a matching Prada Arqué bag and woven ballet flats. A few days later, Elle Fanning was photographed leaving her hotel in Central London during the press tour for her new film, Predator: Badlands, wearing a similar cream-colored topper. The actress paired it with a white maxi dress, a cream Coach Tabby bag, and tan pumps.

On Elle Fanning: Coach Tabby Shoulder Bag 20 ($350)
Most recently, though, was Nicole Kidman, who was seen walking in New Orleans wearing an all-cream outfit, her matching coat slung over her arm. With it, she wore a white cardigan, ivory A-line skirt, and beige Prada slingbacks. It goes without saying that the actress looked sophisticated and chic—she always does—and while most of that is just her, I'd be remiss to not give at least some credit to her cream outfit.
