Summer Chic: Plaids & Checks

Olivia Palermo style 2014; how to wear plaids and checks; menswear trend

 An unexpected, crisp and oh-so-chic summer look from Olivia Palermo. We have seen her in mixed checks here. For this look she combined them with another classic pattern–plaids. The various directions of the lines add charm and modern vibe to the look. Menswear loafer toughens up the flowy shirt and flirty peplum hem skirt while an embellished clutch bag adding just right amount of color, glamour and luxe touch. This is a very versatile look that is great for casual or dressy occasions.

In Chinese: 又一个来自纽约街拍女王奥利维亚·巴勒莫 (Olivia Palermo)的清爽夏日搭配。还记得上次她穿小方格的造型吗？这次她把两种完全不同的格纹混搭在一起，线条的变化给黑白色的单品注入了动感。男士风的尖头皮鞋平衡了小女人味的褶边迷你裙。串珠和流苏装饰的宝蓝色手包加入了恰到好处的色彩点缀和奢华感。这个造型休闲正式皆相宜，帅性又不失甜美。

Denim Shorts

A summer wardrobe won’t be complete without a great pair of denim cutoffs. One Teaspoon has the coolest pairs that are widely loved by celebrities and fashion bloggers. This pair is my personal favorite. I adore the undone hem, shredded holes and the retro wash. My favorite parts are the flattering high-rise and the cut: The outseam length is shorter than inseam length, which help elongate our legs. Pair it with something not too casual like the sexy pinched waist knit tank on Rosie Huntington-Whiteley or the tailored blazer on Alessandra Ambrosio. Finish the look with some gold accents. This season, the classic black/gold combination is back!

In Chinese: 夏天的衣橱当然少不了一条好的牛仔短裤。平价品牌One Teaspoon的破洞仔裤深受明星和时尚博主的追捧。这一条经典款有它标志性的仿旧处理和复古水洗。我最喜欢的是它中高腰的设计和很重要一个拉长腿型的细节：外短内长的剪裁。对这种街头风十足的酷帅单品，搭配上女人味的修身针织背心或正式感的西装外套，更有时尚感。配饰就选择金色来呼应这一季又回来的黑金风潮吧！

Western Spirit: Fringe Bags & Floral Shorts

 Celebrities airport and street style 2014; How to wear the western trend for summer 2014

This is my ideal travel outfit which marries trend and function, allowing us adapt to temperature changes between takeoff and landing with ease. I love how Poppy Delevingne made the soon-to-be-everywhere western elements  (the fringes and flowers) city-centered with a leather jacket, sneaker and sweatshirt.

In Chinese: 这是我理想的旅途穿着：潮感十足又随性舒适。而且可以适应机场、目的地等不同的温度和气候。西部元素很快就会席卷大街小巷了，比如流苏、花朵、木底拖鞋等。走在时尚尖端的街拍偶像已经把秋冬的元素融入了她们夏天的搭配。今天的这个造型里，波比·迪瓦伊(Poppy Delevigne)用皮夹克、卫衣和匡威把西部元素融入了都市休闲中。
