You may have noticed that pretty pastels like baby blue, powder pink, lavender, buttercup yellow, which are usually associated with spring, take center stage this fall. These beautiful, feminine colors soften heavy fabrics and lighten up our winter days.

The key to wearing pastels in fall/winter is combining them with familiar dark colors and rich shades like black, brown, burgundy and hunt green.

If you are not ready to commit to this trend, as always, start with accessories, like the baby blue tote spotted on Rosie Huntington-Whiteley here.

In Chinese: 你可能也已经留意到了,那些常在春夏看到的粉嫩的马卡龙色席卷了今年秋冬的T台,像冰蓝、浅粉、淡紫、鹅黄等。这些轻柔的颜色冲淡了毛呢的厚重感,也点亮了萧瑟暗沉的秋冬。

搭配这些颜色的关键在于平衡,引入这些淡雅的流行色的同时保留我们熟悉的秋冬的大地色系比如灰黑棕等,或浓郁的酒红、墨绿。像所有的流行趋势一样,如果你不确定自己是不是喜欢,是不是能驾驭,就从小的配件开始尝试,比如在上一篇博文里看到的超模Rosie Huntington-Whiteley所做的,提一个粉蓝色的手包来点亮整身的黑色造型。

Black leather boots with minimal embellishments, knee-high or slightly above, are such a functional and fashionable piece. They keep our legs warm while instantly polish up any outfit, exuding a cool and authoritative, tough yet sexy mood.

Team them with perfect fit skinny jeans, a chunky sweater and roomy yet eye-catching bag for strolling around the town. When the sun goes down, simply change the sweater to a delicate, feminine silk blouse, grab a classic quilted handbag which doubles as a clutch, and a bold lipstick, you are ready for a hot date or a girls’ night out!

For more style inspirations for pairing these babies with a skirt or dress, check out my previous post here.

一双简单的黑色及膝或膝上靴是秋冬必不可少的单品,既保暖又时尚,简洁的线条和硬朗的皮革渗透出都市精英的干练和酷帅。

周末逛街时搭配上紧腿牛仔裤宽松的大毛衣实用又抢眼的斜挎包,晚上约会或和同事、好友聚餐时只要换上一件V领的丝质衬衫优雅的黑色手包,再加上一抹红唇就足够了。

除了牛仔裤外,这种靴子搭配女人味十足的短裙更是别有风味,还记得Miranda Kerr的这两个时尚又性感的look吗?
