When I read the news that it took designer Marcus Wainwright a whole year to develop the now widely loved Boy Tee, I was not surprised. I’m very picky when it comes to white tees, and always on the hunt for that perfect one, I know how hard it is. When I find the right one, I do not hesitate to stock up even before I check the price tag–For me, it’s priceless: A perfect white tee makes me feel great every time I wear it; It goes with everything, fits any occasion and can be worn year round, on its own or layered. It makes dressing in the morning less daunting, because I know that when everything else fails, I can always count on my perfect white tee. Besides my new favorite Boy Tee, J.Crew and T by Alexander Wang are also my go-to places for the right one. Next on my wishlist? This make-you-feel-like-a-million-bucks one by The Row.

In Chinese: 当我前段时间在时尚资讯里读到瑞格布恩的设计师马可斯·温莱特(Marcus Wainwright)花了一年的时间研发设计了这款现在被时尚博主们热捧的男孩风白T恤时,我一点也不惊讶,因为作为白T恤的狂热追捧者,我深知找到一款完美的白T恤有多难。如果有合适的,我会不计价格地囤起来。对我来说,衣橱里必不可少的单品里第一件就是完美的纯白T恤:它和任何单品都可以搭配而且几乎可以穿去任何场合(像红毯或正式晚宴等场合当然需要其它单品的辅助),而且四季都能穿。有了一件完美的白T在衣橱,出门前少了很多紧张,因为当感觉穿什么都不对的时候,把它拖出来准没错。J.CrewT by Alexander Wang也是我囤货的必去之地。我理想的终极白T恤?这件让你穿上感觉像百万富翁的奢华版!

Crop top, Two Ways

Crop tops are much more versatile than you thought, you don’t even have to invest in high-waisted bottoms: take a hint from Miranda Kerr, pull out your trusty boyfriend jeans and be-loved track pants, both help tone down its sexyness, eradicate what deters us the most from testing this hot crop top trend. For accessories, an elevated espadrille and timeless satchel add sophistication to a dark palette while a playful printed duffle and on-trend Birkenstock echo the youthful spirit of the white/blue combo seen on Miranda Kerr (above right). When all else fails, you can still wear them like any other tank tops, with this trick demonstrated by another style savvy Olivia Palermo.

In Chinese: 今年大热的超短款上衣其实很好搭,你甚至不需要另外再投资高腰裤,向米兰达·可儿(Miranda Kerr)学学这两招吧:把露脐装配上松垮的男友风牛仔裤或者酷帅的运动裤,中和这种小上衣的性感。配饰的选择上:她的“升级版”草编鞋和经典的大包为休闲感的造型加入了典雅简约的都市风,是对奢华运动的另一种诠释。对于清爽的白色无袖针织衫破洞牛仔裤的组合,她则用豹纹大包和流行又极舒适的博肯鞋来呼应整体年轻和不羁的感觉。当然,如果你还是对露出小蛮腰有所保留,那别忘了试试来自另一个街拍偶像奥利维亚·巴勒莫 (Olivia Palermo)的这个造型

Denim On Denim

 spring summer 2014 outfit ideas; how to wear denim on denim,  Models off duty

There are many ways to rock the denim-on-denim trend: 1. Mix up the shades. Personally, I prefer wearing darker shade on the top, lighter on the bottom, as it’s more unexpected; 2. Mix up textures, like the patchwork and ripped details seen on Miranda Kerr here; 3. Matchy-matchy. This is the hardest to pull off in my opinion, since the combo may make us look dated. Accessories are key in this case. Miranda Kerr modernized hers with a streamlined roomy tote and right-on-trend mules, finishing off with fresh face and natural hair.

In Chinese: 单宁配单宁正流行。要玩转这个风潮,试试这些不同的搭配方法吧:方法一,把不同水洗色的牛仔单品搭配在一起,我个人喜欢把深色的穿在上面,下身穿浅色。方法二, 运用细节丰富层次感,比如在这两个造型里看到的拼接和破洞等。方法三也是我觉得最难的:同色的牛仔单品的搭配,对于这种很容易显得过时的搭配,配件的选择就很关键了,比如超模米兰达·可儿(Miranda Kerr)选择了简约的大容量手包、最夯的穆勒拖鞋和清新自然的妆发来增加年轻和时尚感。
