Early December means Christmas trees are cropping up in a healthy harvest, and we are taking cues from the biggest and brightest for inspiration.
Khloe Kardashian is just one example of adopting a glamorous approach to Christmas. As seen on her Instagram page, the reality TV star has opted for a white and gold color scheme on her tree, evoking the spirit of a winter wonderland with some luxe details.
The white pine needles on the Christmas tree are accentuated by gold lights, which create a warm glow to contrast the icy hue. White, pearly ornaments add some sheen and texture to the tree as well, without distracting from the color scheme.
Though the appearance is luxurious, it is super simple to recreate. Start with a base of a white tree, then add some white lights and pearlescent baubles to achieve a sophisticated and chic appearance. Shop the look below.

Finding an alternative to a green tree that doesn't feel gimmicky can be tricky, but opting for a white colorway is a failsafe way to go. Though it differs from tradition, it is good looking year-after-year (while the neutral base is the perfect canvas for gold and silver ornaments that can truly stand out – like Kardashian's does).
No white Christmas tree is complete without lights; these simple white string lights are the perfect base. Make sure to tuck them into the branches so they look beautiful even when not lit.
