I love pieces that combine interesting yet practical contrasts, like a sweater with crepe ruffle hem or, what featured here, a cardigan with faux fur trim: the fluffy collar adds coziness to the knit without the extra bulk.

Olivia Palermo styled hers with skinny jeans and velvet slipper loafers for a casual yet polished day time look, with a fringe dress and metallic strappy sandals for a glamorous night out look.

Since fur vest, coat or cardigan add volume to our upper body, balance them out with slim fit bottoms, like skinny jeans, pencil skirt or shorts. Extra bonus for injecting a bold punch of color or pattern by way of standout accessories, like the handbag and scarf on Olivia Palermo.

In Chinese: 我总被一些包含了强烈对比元素的单品所吸引,比如这件带刍纱花边的毛衣,还有今天想分享的这件秋冬必备的带皮草领的针织衫。皮草给普通的开衫加了些许奢华感,看起来像穿了两件但是一点也没有厚重感。

Olivia Palermo搭配了休闲的瘦腿裤和丝绒包鞋打造既休闲又有格调的出街造型,晚上外出参加派对时,加在一件庞克风的流苏裙外,再配上金色的高跟鞋,保暖又抢眼。

因为皮草本身有一定的廓形,所以穿皮草马甲、外套或开衫时尽量选择贴身的下装,比如铅笔裙,小短裤或紧身牛仔裤等。利用围巾、手包等配饰引入一些抢眼的颜色或图案,给成熟的皮草增加些年轻活泼的元素。

Continuing our talk about fall pastel trend, Today I want to share with you two more looks that are great for the coming parties and get-togethers.

To balance the pretty and conservative baby blue pieces, Mandy Moore & Chelsea Leyland chose dark colors, tough materials, cool add-ons (love their booties and Leyland’s playful book clutch!). The overall looks are so modest and risky all at once!

Mandy Moore’s look especially amazed me: she is in head-to-toe Topshop, but looks so graceful, comfy and modern. It’s truly a look great for any age. So, for the moms out there, you are never too old to try Topshop!

In Chinese: 继续我们上次对于今年马卡龙色潮流的探讨,今天我想分享两个同样引入了粉蓝色单品的look,很适合参加年末的公司聚餐或和家人朋友的派对。

Mandy Moore 和 Chelsea Leyland为了平衡浅粉色的上衣和外套的甜腻感,加入了很多时尚的元素、硬朗的材质、酷帅或有趣味的配件(好喜欢她们的鞋子手包!)。我尤其喜欢Mandy Moore (上图左边)的这个造型,既得体又时尚,适合很多场合,什么年纪的人都可以穿。很难相信她身上的单品都来自很平价的Topshop。所以很多妈妈们,逛街时不要错过那些貌似只针对年轻人设计的高街品牌哦,你一定会有意外的收获!

Fall Pastels: Baby Blue Coat and Skirt

You may have noticed that pretty pastels like baby blue, powder pink, lavender, buttercup yellow, which are usually associated with spring, take center stage this fall. These beautiful, feminine colors soften heavy fabrics and lighten up our winter days.

The key to wearing pastels in fall/winter is combining them with familiar dark colors and rich shades like black, brown, burgundy and hunt green.

If you are not ready to commit to this trend, as always, start with accessories, like the baby blue tote spotted on Rosie Huntington-Whiteley here.

In Chinese: 你可能也已经留意到了,那些常在春夏看到的粉嫩的马卡龙色席卷了今年秋冬的T台,像冰蓝、浅粉、淡紫、鹅黄等。这些轻柔的颜色冲淡了毛呢的厚重感,也点亮了萧瑟暗沉的秋冬。

搭配这些颜色的关键在于平衡,引入这些淡雅的流行色的同时保留我们熟悉的秋冬的大地色系比如灰黑棕等,或浓郁的酒红、墨绿。像所有的流行趋势一样,如果你不确定自己是不是喜欢,是不是能驾驭,就从小的配件开始尝试,比如在上一篇博文里看到的超模Rosie Huntington-Whiteley所做的,提一个粉蓝色的手包来点亮整身的黑色造型。
