Easily Transition From Day to Night

An effortlessly chic day-time outfit that can be easily transformed into a glamorous night-out look simply by taking off the vest. Put a little thought in the morning, you will move with ease and confidence till dusk. The blush colored tote is such an unexpected finishing touch. I think it works because the pink is very subtle and sophisticated, thus almost works as a neutral, the black handle and dove grey side panels also help it blend harmoniously with the rest.

In Chinese: 我最近最喜欢的一个造型,运用了很多巧妙的搭配技巧却看起来随性自如。更重要的是这套造型可以从早穿到晚:晚上约会或晚餐时只要脱掉马甲就可以了。可见早上出门前多花点心思,一整天都可以游刃有余。这个粉色的拼色手包更是意想不到的搭配,放在这个造型里完全成立的原因在于它的粉优雅柔和,几乎可以算做中性色,而且黑色的手提带和侧边的灰色拼接和裙子的颜色也相互呼应。

Perfect Summer Night Looks

A sweet floral dress combined with tough ankle boots is my favorite summer night look! Classic yet modern, sweet and edgy. Since ankle boots can cut you off, making the legs look shorter, the length of the dress and some styling tricks are very important. Look at the style savvy above, it’s not by chance that they both chose dresses 3 inches above the knee. A coordinating belt or high waist design further elongates the legs. With a pair of cool shades and hands-free crossbody bag, think of nothing but enjoying your night!

In Chinese:  碎花洋装搭配上帅气的踝靴是我最喜欢的造型,可以从春天一直穿到早秋,参加夏日晚上的户外派对也最适合不过。这个搭配经典又有潮感,甜美又率性。但踝靴有个最大的问题就是会截断我们的小腿,所以选择合适的裙长再搭配一些造型技巧就非常重要,比如上面的这两个造型,她们都选了膝上约三公分的裙长,这个长度适合大多数身形。除了裙长外,高腰及收腰的剪裁也很重要,或搭配上一条彩色的细腰带,都可以在强调腰线的同时拉长腿型。配上酷酷的太阳镜斜挎的小包,就能轻松享受夏日派对了。

Bomber Jacket Meets Full Skirt

Another fabulously accessorized look that is great for many summer events. I love everything about this look: the fresh white and green palette, the contrast between her bomber jacket and feminine full skirt, the mimic elements on her cuff, shoe and Minaudiere which tie the whole outfit together, the barely there but oh-so-important leopard belt and her half-tuck hair.

In Chinese: 又一个来自混搭高手奥利维亚·巴勒莫 (Olivia Palermo)的造型,清新自然又不失潮感,适合夏日的很多活动。值得学习的地方有很多:清爽的配色、棒球外套淑女长裙的混搭、把整身完美统一在一起的几何图案的配件,还有那些微小但对造型影响很大的细节,比如豹纹腰带和她看似随性、半塞进去的发型。
