The Male Emporium: My Favorite Classic Combination

Joseph Top, Helmut Lang Pants (on sale, last seen here), Gianvito Rossi Pumps, Mark Cross Bag (love this new color for fall)

I'll always love a great monochromatic look. I think there is nothing more chic than an all white or cream outfit, especially when heading into the colder seasons when clothes and outfits start to become darker and heavier. Last year, I wore this winter white look that's always been a staple of mine, especially when I want something that feels bright and fresh. Often times I think this simple combination is overlooked, but yet, it's so easy to create. Many of us already have some type of white/cream pants (whether it's jeans, trousers or even a skirt) and some type of white/cream top (a blouse, a sweater or even a tee) to pair together.

While we shot this look a while ago in NYC, it's sort of a timeless combination. Now, I would just add a cream coat over the top to make it more seasonally appropriate, or switch out my blouse for a cream turtleneck. A pair of cream trousers will always come in handy. I bought this Helmut Lang pair a few years ago, and luckily, they are still available and on sale here. They're probably one of the most comfortable pairs of pants I own, and oh so flattering.
