Accessories are key to spicing up basics, as showed here: from the edgy footwear (combat boots on Taylor Swift, lace up booties on Doutzen Kroes) to bags that full of characters (the retro glamour of Taylor Swift’s or the bohemian hobo of Doutzen Kroes’s), to their fabulous sunglasses, hat, coordinate lips or artfully tossed hair.

In Chinese: 今天的这两个look再次展现了配饰的强大力量:T恤配上短裤或迷你裙的简单造型,加上精致的小手包格斗靴和一抹红唇,Taylor Swift看起来复古又俏皮。配上波希米亚风的大挎包,镂空的踝靴眩光太阳镜,Doutzen Kroes看起来则颇有都市风情,休闲随意又不失性感。

Spring/summer is a great time to play with different types of statement accessories–when we dress less, eye-catching accessories really help to elevate the simple outfits while filling in the blanks. Today, I picked several of my favorites this season, from Miranda Kerr’s retro sunglasses and Punk finger ring set to Olivia Palermo’s ethnic choker necklace and futuristic slate-colored pearls, from Shala Monroque’s whimsical brooch to Sofía Sanchez Barrenechea’s edgy cut-out cuffs, hope to inspire you to step out of your comfort zone and explore more sides of yourself!
