Why I love it: a floral midi skirt gets modernized when teamed with leather jacket, denim shirt and chain trimmed pointed toe booties.

Style Tips:
Pair a midi skirt with cropped tops, like the jacket seen above. Wear it where the jacket ends.
For petite fellows, tie the denim shirt around your waist for a more flattering look.
Change the jacket to a tailored blazer, wear the outfit to the office!

In Chinese: 长及膝下的大伞裙是这一季的流行，但是穿不好容易显老显俗，尤其是这种大花图案的。波比·迪瓦伊(Poppy Delevigne)用短小的皮夹克，富有年轻感的牛仔衬衫、字母T恤和链条短靴穿出了潮感和新意。

选择这种大伞裙时最好选择高腰款，搭配上这一季大热的短款毛衣、外套或小衫，打造好比例。娇小的女孩可以把衬衫系在腰间。配上短款的西装外套和尖头包鞋，这种裙长其实非常适合办公室。

How to recreate the look:

1. J Brand crop moto jacket (also here; similar here & here)
2. AG chambray shirt (also love this pullover style)
3. Kenzo vintage skirt (stunning print! similar here & here)
4. Tory Burch perforated satchel
5. Saint Laurent boots (on sale here! similar here)
6. Etre Cecile T-shirt

Key piece: floral midi skirt

On Miranda Kerr: Helmut Lang leather pants, Prada aviator sunglasses, Equipment Hunter washed-silk tuxedo shirt, Hermes Birkin bag, Saint Laurent two tone flats; Photos: Anja Rubik & Miranda Kerr; Courtesy of vogue.fr, infphoto.com.

Some contend that pairing black with brown is a faux pas, but today’s featured outfits from style savvy show that it can be so easy, chic and effortlessly cool, whether you want to go for a feminine vibe with sexy pumps and a strappy jumpsuit or opt for a masculine touch with tough leather and two-tone loafers. These looks are ageless and versatile, great for the office, shopping, or hanging out with friends.

In Chinese: 在配色上有一个常见的迷思就是黑色和棕色不能配在一起，时尚圈的好玩就在于任何规则都可以打破，看看上面的这两个超模的黑+棕造型吧：Anja Rubik的搭配简约利落，深V的连身裤、性感的包鞋和标志性的小烟熏给她的装扮注入几分性感；Miranda Kerr则用硬朗的皮裤、大包以及男性化的平底便鞋把这个搭配穿出了假小子的气场。这两个造型什么年纪都可以尝试，而且适合上班、购物、约见客户或和好友聚餐等很多场合。

Midi skirts and wool shorts are great transitional pieces to keep us warm without the winter heaviness. The graceful vibe of a midi and tailored silhouette of the shorts make them versatile pieces that can be worn from desk to dinner. Here, I love the accessories master Olivia Palermo adds edgy or glamour elements to her ensemble via add-ons like her enviable shoes, cool sunglasses, and ladylike purse.

In Chinese: 优雅的过膝裙和挺括的羊毛短裤很适合现在这样的过渡时节穿，有保暖功能又没有冬装的厚重感，既能通勤又可以穿去约会。街拍女王Olivia Palermo是善用配件的高手，看看她的这两个造型吧：用优雅的酒红色高跟鞋把一身硬朗的皮装穿出了十足女人味，男孩风的铆钉短靴则给俏皮甜美的波希米亚风装扮注入了恰到好处的酷帅。
