Back to Basics

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…

Bring Me Sunshine

Sunny yellow goes especially well with black and white prints, like classic stripes, polka dots or exotic tribal print showed on Reese Witherspoon above. She highlighted her beautiful sweater by keeping accessories all in black.

This look is casual and chic, great for brunch, hanging out with friends, shopping or school activities if you are a mom. Speaking of moms, skort is a great piece for moms who want to show off beautiful legs while staying safe (you know what I mean) and age-appropriate.

In Chinese: 亮黄色和黑白印花配起来格外亮眼,无论是经典的条纹、圆点,还是像辣妈瑞茜·威瑟斯彭 (Reese Witherspoon)身上的这种部落风格的印花。她的这条小裤裙很适合想秀美腿,又不方便穿迷你裙的美妈们。这个休闲又出挑的造型适合和朋友聚餐、逛街或参加学校的活动等很多场合。

Spice Up Your Black Ensemble

How to wear black and white,   On Olivia Palermo March 31 2014: Rachel Zoe short sleeve coat, Christian Dior lady dior white purse, Hudson side stripe Jeans, Ralph Lauren Black Long-Sleeved Mesh Top.Photos: Olivia Palermo; Courtesy of splashnewsonline.com.

Why I love the look: It’s a little bit of everything: classic yet trendy, comfy yet polished, chic and sexy, with a hint of sporty and fun.

Shopping Tips: 
Look for basic pieces with interesting details: black skinny jeans with side stripes, black top but see-through, classic coat with chic short sleeves
Speaking of short sleeve coat, it’s perfect for between-seasons, and it’s a wonderful item to play with: you can wear lace, leather, chiffon, or fun prints like leopard, camo and stripes underneath it to create endless combos.

In Chinese:  街拍女王奥利维亚·巴勒莫 (Olivia Palermo)的这个造型简约而不简单,看似平淡的黑白配,却融合了透视、运动、印花等很多流行元素,利落又性感,舒适且潮味十足。

挑选经典单品中带有出挑的细节设计或新一季的元素是打造这种风格的关键。比如这件在她的街拍中出现过很多次的短袖风衣,不仅是换季时的必备,而且通过内搭不同材质,比如蕾丝、雪纺、皮革等,不同图案比如豹纹、迷彩、条纹等等,可以变换出很多新造型。
