Crop top is definitely not a youth trend . Pair it with classic high-waisted pencil skirt in graceful midi length as showed above, moms can rock this trend too. As for colors, understated neutrals like black, dove grey or innocent white balance out the sexiness. Since wearing white head to toe may make us look washed out, glowing skin, a bold lip or edgy accessories can help liven up the whole look.

In Chinese: 正大行其道的露脐装绝不是年轻人的专利，搭配上长伞裙或像上面这两个造型里的过膝铅笔裙，妈妈们也完全可以赶这趟潮流的班车，再加上廓形大衣，这种超短上衣甚至可以穿去办公室。在颜色的选择上，低调的黑白灰可以平衡露脐装的性感，不要忘记小细节的重要：亮橘的唇彩、黑色的甲油、金属点缀的手包等都能给整体造型带来大改变。

Florals are everywhere on the runway this season. Wearing it in a modern and youthful way can be challenging. Lily Collin’s breathtaking dress combines blooming roses and grid-print, her minimalist jewelry and dark red lips keep it mod and sophisticated; Bella Thorne’s striking ball gown maxi dress likes a piece of art. I love how she kept it fresh and fun with a preppy top and a playful strawberry clutch. The best part? These beautiful floral pieces both have side pockets! Seriously, what more can we ask?

In Chinese: 今天春夏花朵当道，但花花的单品穿不好容易显俗气，看看这两个造型吧：Lily Collin的这条抹胸裙结合了流行的花朵和窗棂格纹图案，她用极简的配饰和复古感的妆容让整体造型优雅精致；Bella Thorne的这条及地舞裙色彩奔放，像一件艺术品。这么有挑战性的单品，她却用学院风的针织上衣和可爱的草莓手包巧妙平衡，轻松驾驭。另外这两件抢眼的印花单品都有口袋，对于我这种裙子一定要有口袋设计的‘小偏执狂’来说就更难抗拒了！

Laid Back Chic

Loose fit pants paired with comfy flats? Sounds challenging. Julianne Hough showed us how to rock this practical combo effortlessly:

First, choose the pants wisely. Both pairs on her have a good relaxed fit without being too wide thanks to the stretch denim fabric and the tapered silhouette, respectively. Second, the rolled hems and fitted tops on her balanced the loose fit of her pants perfectly; Third, the eye-catching leopard print on her shoes distracted attention while offering the effortless chicness.

In Chinese:宽松的裤款和平底鞋的搭配很有挑战性，看看个子并不高，和我们普通人一样也有壮壮腿困扰的Julianne Hough是怎么穿出时尚感的吧：

首先她在裤型的选择上很有心机，看起来宽松，但她的牛仔背带裤的裤腿相对较窄，面料又有弹性。而右边白色的裤子也选择了修饰腿型的锥形，卷起的裤管露出了纤细的脚踝，再配上紧身的上衣，最大化的减弱了宽松裤型显胖的可能。豹纹的包鞋既转移了注意力又给整身look增加了潮感。
