Spring 2014 is a season to embrace bold colors and patterns. Buzzwords contain midi dresses, florals, pop-art and more. It’s definitely time to shine, are you ready?

Besides the trend, there is another thing we can learn from today’s featured ladies: To pull off the rare combination of rock edge and retro glamour, add characters with accessories, like the refined T strap pump, chunky oxford, ‘Rockstud’ shoes and bags showed above.

In Chinese: 今年春夏一反去年单调的黑与白，变得鲜艳、奔放、大胆。大伞裙、花朵、当代艺术等都是T台上传递出的关键词。你准备好了吗？

要想把这些带有复古元素的单品穿出现代感，配饰就很关键了，像上面这几位时尚偶像身上所看到的厚重的鞋款以及铆钉等硬朗的元素是这些女人味十足的裙装最好的配搭‘伙伴’。

CLOTHING

Happy 2014 everyone! How is your New Year’s Eve? With a little one needs to be nursed around the clock, I opted out of the hoopla and stayed at my warm home with loved ones.

Kick off the first day with two classic, cozy yet fashionable looks. Cable knit sweaters are very nostalgic for me, growing up seeing heavy snow every winter, I can’t live without them. How to update? Play with textures by pairing them with tough leather or flowy chiffon; Also incorporate trendy elements, like the pleats (prepare to see them a lot next spring), skirts in midi length, and punky zips or studs seen on today’s featured fashion experts.

In Chinese: 新年快乐！你的新年前夜是怎么度过的呢？带着襁褓里的宝宝，又赶上纽约气温骤降，我只好选择呆在家里，不过和家人在一起，其乐融融，也很惬意。

今天我选了两个非常经典又不失时尚感的搭配，都是和一件我们很熟悉的单品有关的，那就是人人都离不开的毛衣。这种从小穿到大的衣服怎么穿出潮流感呢？贴士一：混搭不同的材质，把厚重的针织和硬朗的皮革或飘逸的雪纺配在一起；贴士二：引入当季的流行元素，比如百褶裙（明年春夏会很火哦），复古的中长裙，或有庞克风的拉链、铆钉等。

Styling tassel or fringe pieces can be quite challenging. Olivia Palermo showed us how in two different ways: give them more punch with exotic accessories and geo patterns for a world traveler’s refined gipsy look or polish them up with sleek shapes and clean lines. The result? Effortlessly chic ensembles you can wear for the office, a date-night or strolling around town.

In Chinese: 搭配流苏装饰的单品挺有挑战性的，希望Olivia Palermo的这两个造型能让你在日常生活中大胆尝试一下：上图左边的look里她搭配了颇有异域风情的配饰和不同的几何图案，使整身造型很有故事感，仿佛带上了她旅行中每一站的记忆；右边的look里她则用利落的廓形和简洁的线条给流苏赋予了精良的都市感。
