If you find something that works, then stick with it. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has a long neck and narrow, slightly sloped shoulders, shoulder padded jackets/blazers look great on her. Soft pastel colors compliment her porcelain skin and blonde hair.

Here, by simply changing the jacket and hair style, she managed to look chic on-the-go, which can inspire us to pack strategically for our coming summer trips.

In Chinese: 如果一种搭配方式或者颜色适合你，那就多尝试，让它自然变成你个人风格的一部分。比如超模罗西·汉丁顿-惠特莉(Rosie Huntington-Whiteley)的有令人羡慕的长脖子，略点削肩，很适合有垫肩的夹克或西装外套。她的肤色和发色也非常适合柔和的浅色系。这两个造型她只是简单得变换了外套和发型，却有完全不同的感觉，希望能给我们假日出行怎么用最少的单品打造出尽可能多的造型带来些灵感。

What would Parisienne wear on Saturday mornings for dog walking or coffee run? Probably this one of Olivia Palermo, truly effortless chic, and great for year-round, no matter the age.

In Chinese: 想想巴黎女子会在悠闲的周六早上遛狗或买咖啡时穿什么？可能就是奥利维亚·巴勒莫 (Olivia Palermo)的这个造型吧，精良简约的基本款，舒适随性又优雅，而且不分年纪，也四季皆宜。

The blazer/jacket section is a ever-growing part in my wardrobe. I’m a firm believer that a great blazer is investment-worthy, and it can instantly make an outfit look sharp and polished. Here, Rihanna balanced her boxy pinstripe version with distressed denim cutoffs and feminized the look with sexy heels and bold red lips.

In Chinese: 我投资最多，平时也最喜欢买的大概就是西装外套了。多年积累下来，我的衣橱里已经有各种材质、颜色和图案的西装外套了。它们四季皆宜，好搭实穿，可以瞬间让即使最普通邋遢的造型利落有型。比如今天所选的这个造型里，蕾哈娜（Rihanna）用极短的破洞牛仔裤平衡她略带箱型剪裁的外套，性感的系带高跟鞋和红唇注入了女人味。
