When a celebrity is spotted wearing a piece from a high-street brand despite all the luxurious options she has, that piece is worth to take note, especially like style savvy Beyoncé. This striped number by Topshop has been seen on several celebrities. I especially love the way Margot Robbie & Beyoncé Knowles worn (above): Instead of adding a pop of color, they chose classic black and white for chic, sophisticated ensembles. Luminous skin and the confidence are their best accessories.

In Chinese: 大明星们通常不缺各大奢侈品牌的赞助，所以每次看到她们选择平价单品，而且极有质感和风格时，我都忍不住收藏，尤其是本身很有时尚品味的明星。上面看到的这两个出街造型里的条纹裙来自高街品牌Topshop, 前后已经有三四位明星都穿过了。我尤其喜欢上面的这两个造型，不加任何的颜色，简单的黑白配上经典优雅的鞋子和包包，自信的态度和好皮肤就是最好的配饰。

How to wear a leather jacket, fringe trend 2014, Models off Duty, Miranda Kerr in New York on April 8 2014 wore black leather fringe jacket by Saint Laurent, stripe top, black skinny Frame Denim jeans, Saint Laurent platform pumps and Celine sunglasses.

The saying of god is in the details is especially right when it comes to making a basic look stand out. Take this look of Miranda Kerr for instance, all the pieces on her seem wardrobe basics we may all have, but hers are a little bit different: a leather jacket with trendy fringes, striped T shirt with a relaxed silhouette, skinny jeans with flattering high-waist design, basic pump with pointed toe and platform…

In Chinese: 还是那句老话：细节决定成败，尤其是对于看似平淡普通的造型，全在细节化腐朽为神奇。比如超模辣妈米兰达·可儿（Miranda Kerr）的这身：皮夹克带有这一季最IN的流苏元素，简单的牛仔裤选择了深色高腰款，经典的条纹衫外移的肩线和更放松的廓形更好地平衡了下半身，简单的包鞋加上尖头的设计和防水台，穿起来更显腿型修长…

How to Wear Floral Print to the Office, On Reese Witherspoon: white button up shirt, j crew floral no.2 pencil skirt,nude pump, Ray-Ban 'Classic Wayfarer XL' 54mm Sunglasses, Saint Laurent Sac de Jour Small Carryall Bag, On Blake Lively: Mother The Looker Print Skinny Jeans, black top, aviator sunglasses, black top, black pump, Photos: Reese Witherspoon & Blake Lively; Courtesy of infphoto.com, splashnewsonline.com.

Nothing better to welcome spring than florals. Reese Witherspoon & Blake Lively show us how to incorporate the cheerful print into our 9-to-5 wardrobe: Pick a floral piece in dark base with office-friendly silhouette, like a navy or black floral pencil skirt, straight leg pants or sheath dress; Down play the floral print with neutral pieces that have professional vibe, from button down shirt to structured bag to classic pumps.

In Chinese: 花朵图案的单品总是让人赏心悦目。Reese Witherspoon和Blake Lively的这两个造型告诉我们怎么把我们喜欢的图案穿去办公室：在单品的选择上，尽量选暗底色的。另外因为图案本身已经很醒目，款式上就简单些，像铅笔裙、直筒裤或及膝一字裙等办公场合常见的版型。搭配上黑白灰等基本色的单品，让整体造型更利落清新。配饰上选择硬挺材质的手提包、经典的尖头包鞋增加专业感。
