Maternity Chic: Blake Lively

Rarely see a mom-to-be look so light and fresh. I love how Blake Lively contrasted light and heavy (her flowy floral skirt and suede boots), warm and cool (the grey and mint based outfit and her warm rich brown boots). A pair of trendy shades and a swipe of red lipstick are best accessories during my pregnancy too. Best of all? All the pieces can be worn post-pregnancy!

In Chinese:  很少见准妈妈们像布莱克·莱弗利(Blake Lively)这么轻盈。我很喜欢她在这套造型薄厚、冷暖的混搭,比如她飘逸的花裙和厚麂皮长靴的对比,以及蓝灰等冷色调和温暖大地色的碰撞。在尽量少用化妆品的孕期,一个时髦的太阳镜和一抹红唇就是最好的配饰了。最赞的是,这个造型的每一单品产后也都可以穿。

Sexy Trench

I’m mesmerized by the idea of wearing a trench coat as a dress, nothing underneath. The contrast is so sexy. For an ubiquitous basic piece like this, I like to look for details: Capelet, contrast sleeves, luxurious material, or fun colors makes one stand out. Here, Blake Lively showed us how to wear it for day and night. Her unstudied attitude and signature tousled hair are the best accessories!

In Chinese: 把硬朗的风衣当裙子穿,只露出美腿,魅惑性感,就像布莱克·莱弗利(Blake Lively)所展示的一样,皮袖拼接的风衣配上帅气的踝靴和自然的妆容就是简单又出位的白天出街造型,换上女人味的尖头包鞋、闪亮的内搭,再加上烟熏妆,就可以参加晚上的派对了。她那种自由不羁的态度和标志性的随性自然卷就是穿风衣最好的“配饰”。在选购风衣时,注意一些与众不同的小细节,比如大的挡雨披风不同材质的拼接奢华的面料有趣的颜色等。

Wear Florals to Work

How to Wear Floral Print to the Office,     On Reese Witherspoon: white button up shirt, j crew floral no.2 pencil skirt,nude pump,  Ray-Ban 'Classic Wayfarer XL' 54mm Sunglasses, Saint Laurent Sac de Jour Small Carryall Bag,   On Blake Lively: Mother The Looker Print Skinny Jeans,  black top, aviator sunglasses, black top, black pump, Photos: Reese Witherspoon & Blake Lively; Courtesy of infphoto.comsplashnewsonline.com.

Nothing better to welcome spring than florals. Reese Witherspoon & Blake Lively show us how to incorporate the cheerful print into our 9-to-5 wardrobe: Pick a floral piece in dark base with office-friendly silhouette, like a navy or black floral pencil skirt, straight leg pants or sheath dress; Down play the floral print with neutral pieces that have professional vibe, from button down shirt to structured bag to classic pumps.

In Chinese: 花朵图案的单品总是让人赏心悦目。Reese Witherspoon和Blake Lively的这两个造型告诉我们怎么把我们喜欢的图案穿去办公室:在单品的选择上,尽量选暗底色的。另外因为图案本身已经很醒目,款式上就简单些,像铅笔裙直筒裤及膝一字裙等办公场合常见的版型。搭配上黑白灰等基本色的单品,让整体造型更利落清新。配饰上选择硬挺材质的手提包经典的尖头包鞋增加专业感。
