Having a 4 month-old son, I barely have time to get dressed. No-brainer black ensemble is my go-to. How to spicy it up, avoid that tired-mommy look? Two words: details and accessories.

As showed on Heidi Klum above, the combination of denim/leather on her pants, the side buttons on her boots, the fur collar on her coat make the outfits anything but boring. Trendy sunglasses, scarlet lips and hot It bags add the right amount of glam.

These outfits are great for any age,especially handy for busy moms. Change the leather pants with straight-leg trousers or a pencil skirt, you can wear these to the office too.

In Chinese: 当了妈妈后,根本没有时间考虑每天穿什么。一身黑最简单,又不怕脏。但是怎么穿出辣妈味呢?

两个关键词:细节和配饰。比如Heidi Klum这两身造型里牛仔拼接的皮裤侧边有排扣设计的踝靴、白色皮草领的大衣等让原本普通的黑色单品潮味十足。在配饰上,眩光镜片精致的红唇、或大热的设计师手包等都能瞬间让普通的搭配脱颖而出。

这两个造型不分年龄,而且尤其适合忙碌的妈妈们。把皮裤换成西装裤或铅笔裙,就能穿去办公室了。

Winter White: Oversized Coat & Ladylike Accessories

how to wear the oversized white coats,winter white trend, how  to wear leather pants,   street style, fall/winter, Celine Dion, white coat, white cable knit sweater, leather pants, black boots, green bag, celine luggage, pink pump,  On Celine Dion: Celine white oversized coat, 	3.1 Phillip Lim Zip Oversized Pullover with Faux Trim, leather pants, black leather ankle boots, emerald green suede bag, dark green scarf,  	 On Celine Dion:Celine white oversized coat, grey skinny jeans, nude pink pump, pink celine luggage tote, oversized sunglasses, grey ombre scarf, Photos: Celine Dion; Courtesy of justjared.compcnphotos.com.

I’m very impressed by Celine Dion’s looks lately. She said that she is in the greatest place in her life. The happiness and joy are surely reflected in her uplifting outfits. Today’s featured looks of her are fresh, trendy with Celine’s classic elegant touches.

Besides teaming skinny bottoms with an oversized winter coat for a well-balanced look, there are more we can learn from her, especially the way she used colors: for graphic black/white color theme, she accessoried with deep, rich jewel tones like emerald green, whereas for softer white/grey color theme, she chose light peachy pink for an oh-so-fresh look. These two outfits are great for any age, get inspired and recreate yours!

In Chinese: Celine Dion 最近的造型让我眼前一亮,正如她在接受采访时所坦言的,她目前处于人生最好的状态,非常满意现在的生活。这种快乐和满足也正反映在她明快、时尚的着装上,比如今天所选的这两个造型,既抓住了这一季的潮流又不失她自己多年来的典雅风格。

我们能从这些搭配里学到很多,我最受益的是她对颜色的敏锐度,比如对于对比强烈的黑白色,用浓郁的宝石色来搭配,像她身上的墨绿色的包和围巾; 反之,对于相对柔和的中性色组合,比如白色和灰色,则用彩度稍低,但明快的粉色、杏色、浅蓝色等来搭配。

Pretty Pastel: Go-Everywhere Holiday Outfit Ideas

Soft pastels are as festival as traditional jewelry tones but more fresh, chic and mod. Today’s featured looks of super models Karlie Kloss & Natalia Vodianova incorporated beautiful turquoise and powder pink, which in my opinion, are “superwoman” outfits that are great for many occasions, whether running errands, last minutes shopping, going to the office, after dark drink, picking up kids from school, or hosting a dinner party.

The key to make pastels cold-weather approved is to add warm textures, like the fur tunic and tweed top showed on the models, respectively. The leather pants, right-on-trend midi skirt and block heel pumps balance out the sweetness of the pastels, making them great for any age!

In Chinese: 相比以往秋冬流行的浓郁宝石色,今年大行其道的马卡龙色系既有同样欢愉的假日感,又多了份别致的清新气息。今天所选的这两个来自超模Karlie Kloss 和 Natalia Vodianova的造型把甜美的马卡龙色上装搭配上了舒适又有复古气息的粗跟鞋、百搭的皮裤以及优雅的铅笔裙,很适合这个时节的各种活动和场合: 既适合通勤、约会,又适合举办派对、采购节日礼品或接送孩子上下学。

秋冬穿这种粉嫩色系的关键在于材质,比如在两位超模身上看到的皮草粗呢等增加了温暖感。深色皮裤和今年流行的有复古风的中长裙优雅的低跟包鞋等平衡了过于甜美的色彩,让40+的妈妈们也可以大胆挑战这些可爱的颜色了。
