I have love-hate relationship with parkas, need them when it’s freezing cold outside while challenged when it comes to styling. Today’s two looks inspired me, I love how Gisele Bundchen kept hers sleek and sexy with skinny jeans, killer booties and an It bag, envy how Miranda Kerr made the impossible combination of super comfy and super chic by mixing sweatpants and sneakers with covetable Hermes and sultry red lips.

In Chinese: 我对风雪衣既爱又恨，寒冬里离不开它，穿时却很难搭配出时尚感。如果你也一样，今天的这两个look能给我们些灵感：Gisele Bundchen选了酷帅的军绿色，配上修身仔裤、拼接的皮革踝靴和IT包，颇有硬朗又性感的都市风。Miranda Kerr则混搭了休闲的运动裤、运动鞋与让人垂涎的爱马仕包和她标志性的红唇。 How to Dress for Zero-Degree Temperatures; How to Wear a Parka; featured: Earrings: ginette_ny Mini Lotus Stud Earrings, Bag: Givenchy Lucrezia duffel Bag, Jacket: FAY padded jacket, Jeans: J Brand Maria High Rise Powerstretch Legging Jeans, Boots: CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN canassone boots,

Bold printed pants have been on trend since last year, with new elements added, such as pajama, geometric pattern and sporty trends, these beloved printed pants have been constantly reinvented.

I initially had reservations about this type of pants because they tend to make our legs look wider and shorter, but with more and more options for different prints, cuts and materials, we can totally nail this trend while looking slim and effortlessly chic. Gwen Stefani & Miranda Kerr showed us how:

Choose “smart” prints, like the Peige one on Gwen Stefani, it looks like her legs are the same width as the print, the black side stripes also help to slim her legs; Go for high waisted version, it’s more flattering, especially when you choose loose fit one like the pair on Miranda Kerr; Opt for shoes in the same color family as the pants or a classic pointy-toe pump, both will help elongate legs; Pair them with plain tops, let the pants do the talk.

花朵、几何图案的印花裤从去年开始就很流行了，这几季在加入了新的元素后，这种裤型更受欢迎。我刚开始对印花裤敬而远之，总觉得会显腿粗，但是随着选择越来越多，挑到图案抢眼又时尚，而且修饰身形的印花裤已经不是什么难事了，我们可以从Gwen Stefani 和 Miranda Kerr上面的这两个造型里学到一些挑选和搭配的小技巧：

选择“有心机”的图案，Gwen Stefani身上的这条就很有巧思，视觉上她的腿只有中间内侧的几何图案那么纤细，另外，侧边的两条黑色直条纹也像给腿部打了阴影，更加强了显瘦的效果。高腰款式是拉长腿部线条的不二选择，尤其是穿像Miranda Kerr的这种宽松横条纹裤。在鞋子的选择上，和裤身同色系的鞋或经典的尖头高跟鞋也能使腿看起来更修长。

Midriff baring is not only trendy now, also quite practical for combating the heat. Wearing crop pieces for night-time is easy: a bustier with high-waisted pencil skirt or a bandeau and hot shorts with a boyfriend blazer. But styling it daytime appropriate can be quite challenging. Today, I featured two daytime chic outfits to give your some inspiration.

Compared to plain jersey version, the ones on today’s featured style-conscious starlets are more elegant and feminine thanks to the beautiful embroidered details and high neckline. Exposing just the right amount of skin by pairing them with high-waisted pants or skirts. Strappy sandals echo the polished glamour while the eye-catching It bags on them add a touch of urban chic.
