Sporty Luxe: Mesh Sweater & Track Pants

This season is all about getting sporty. Two key words to keep in mind when rocking the sports trend: 1. ‘Inspired’, which means don’t take the trend too literally, leave your workout clothes inside the gym, shop for pieces that have a sporty touch, like the white sweater with mesh sleeves on Olivia Palermo (above left). 2. ‘Luxurious’. Designers have been taking sport pieces to another level with luxe materials like silk, crepe and cashmere. You can also upgrade yours by pairing them with glamorous counterparts like a sexy Christian Louboutin mesh pump or an eye-catching It bag.

In Chinese:  这一季运动风当道。要穿出潮感而不是像去健身房的路上,只要记住两个关键词:第一,运动元素。你要找的是包含运动元素但不是真正具有功能性的单品,比如在奥利维亚·巴勒莫 (Olivia Palermo)这两个造型里看到的甜美的针织衫加入了运动风格的网状拼接。第二,奢华。这几季设计师们纷纷出招,运用奢华的面料,比如真丝绉绸喀什米尔给把平民化的运动单品注入了奢华感。如果不想投资这么贵的运动单品,你也可以通过搭配来提升奢华感,比如配上性感的高跟鞋炙手可热的品牌手包

Perfect Summer Night Looks

A sweet floral dress combined with tough ankle boots is my favorite summer night look! Classic yet modern, sweet and edgy. Since ankle boots can cut you off, making the legs look shorter, the length of the dress and some styling tricks are very important. Look at the style savvy above, it’s not by chance that they both chose dresses 3 inches above the knee. A coordinating belt or high waist design further elongates the legs. With a pair of cool shades and hands-free crossbody bag, think of nothing but enjoying your night!

In Chinese:  碎花洋装搭配上帅气的踝靴是我最喜欢的造型,可以从春天一直穿到早秋,参加夏日晚上的户外派对也最适合不过。这个搭配经典又有潮感,甜美又率性。但踝靴有个最大的问题就是会截断我们的小腿,所以选择合适的裙长再搭配一些造型技巧就非常重要,比如上面的这两个造型,她们都选了膝上约三公分的裙长,这个长度适合大多数身形。除了裙长外,高腰及收腰的剪裁也很重要,或搭配上一条彩色的细腰带,都可以在强调腰线的同时拉长腿型。配上酷酷的太阳镜斜挎的小包,就能轻松享受夏日派对了。

Summer Chic: Plaids & Checks

 An unexpected, crisp and oh-so-chic summer look from Olivia Palermo. We have seen her in mixed checks here. For this look she combined them with another classic pattern–plaids. The various directions of the lines add charm and modern vibe to the look. Menswear loafer toughens up the flowy shirt and flirty peplum hem skirt while an embellished clutch bag adding just right amount of color, glamour and luxe touch. This is a very versatile look that is great for casual or dressy occasions.

In Chinese: 又一个来自纽约街拍女王奥利维亚·巴勒莫 (Olivia Palermo)的清爽夏日搭配。还记得上次她穿小方格的造型吗?这次她把两种完全不同的格纹混搭在一起,线条的变化给黑白色的单品注入了动感。男士风的尖头皮鞋平衡了小女人味的褶边迷你裙串珠和流苏装饰的宝蓝色手包加入了恰到好处的色彩点缀和奢华感。这个造型休闲正式皆相宜,帅性又不失甜美。
