Overall Chic

How to Wear Overalls, Olivia Palermo, street syle 2014Photos: Olivia Palermo; Courtesy of pacificcoastnews.com.

I have been hunting high and low for a great pair of denim overalls. I want one that stays true to its utilitarian root while complements my personal style. This pair on Olivia Palermo fits the bill perfectly: I love the inky wash and tailored silhouette, also greatly appreciate that it still has all the elements of a classic denim overalls: buckled strips, loops, and a patch pocket details the bib. Pair it with feminine, sophisticated pieces for a grown-up, urban chic vibe. 

In Chinese: 一直很想收一条大热的牛仔背带裤,找了很久都没有满意的,不是颜色不理想就是版型太松垮。直到看到奥利维亚·巴勒莫 (Olivia Palermo)的这条:黑色水洗加上修身的裤型,让原本过于休闲和孩子气的背带裤多了份都市感,同时又完整地保留了这种工装裤应有的元素,比如金属的搭扣、可调的背带、腰带圈和前兜上的口袋车线等。配上女人味的单品和配饰,休闲又优雅。 How to Wear Overalls, Olivia Palermo street syle 2014;  1.

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。

Walking on Sunshine

How to wear spring 2014's art trend;  Olivia Palermo street style: christian louboutin yellow printed pump, zara knit cardigan jacket, white shirt, AG Adriano Goldschmied Ankle Legging Jeans, statement necklace,Wunderkind Brown Mosaic Cat-Eye Sunglasses Photos: Olivia Palermo; Courtesy of rexfeatures.com.

Why I love it: To keep up with the contemporary art trend this spring, you don’t have to wear a face or bold brushstroke print dress. Olivia Palermo made the trend her own with a pair of arty pumps which blend harmoniously with her old favorites.

Style Tip: Distressed skinny jeans are great to dress down delicate pieces while still making you look polished. Plus, they won’t go out of style.

In Chinese: 要赶上这一季的艺术潮,不一定非要投资一条夸张的脸谱或笔刷图案的裙子,不仅识别度高,而且也受穿着场合的限制。向名媛奥利维亚·巴勒莫 (Olivia Palermo)学习吧,她的这双像水彩画作般的鞋子呼应了流行风潮,又契合她的优雅风格,和正装休闲装都可以搭,一件新欢就可以更新我们衣橱里的旧爱。

牛仔裤这一季又被推上了流行的中心。破洞牛仔裤不是摇滚青年的专利,投资一条好的破洞紧身款,能给你淑女风的着装注入些不羁的帅气感,又不失女人味。
