Fur or Faux fur pieces are cold weather essentials. They keep us stylish while shielding against winter chill. Today’s featured ladies gave us more fresh ideas of how to style these wardrobe staples:

Olivia Palermo mixed plaids to liven up her dark ensemble. Her relaxed pants work well in this outfit because the fur piece on her is a vest instead of a coat. The sheer blouse balances the loose silhouette while the eye-catching stilettos elongating her legs.

Alessandra Ambrosio’s striped fur coat is definitely the center piece, so she kept the others simple and quiet. The right-on-trend over-the-knee boots seen on her go great with mini skirt or shorts, exuding the right amount of sexiness. Check out how Kate Moss styled her striped fur coat for a glamorous evening look here!

In Chinese: 皮草是秋冬打造时尚又保暖造型的必备单品。除了搭配牛仔裤或打底裤外，还有什么新鲜的搭配方法吗？看看今天的这两个造型吧！

Olivia Palermo混搭了两种不同的格子图案给秋冬的暗沉色调增加了趣味。因为皮草本身具有膨胀感，所以我们一般搭配紧身的裤装，Olivia Palermo却选择了略宽松的款式，关键在于她的皮草单品是马甲，而且她用半透明的衬衫降低了潜在的臃肿感，她的裤装在脚踝处也做了收紧的处理，搭配上能拉长腿型的尖头高跟鞋，这种宽松加宽松的‘公式’才成立。

Alessandra Ambrosio的这件条纹的皮草大衣是整身最亮眼的单品。在保持其它的色彩相对简单低调的同时，她用休闲的牛仔短裤给皮草增加了些年轻活泼的元素。现在正红的膝上靴最好的穿搭伙伴是迷你裙或短裤，既拉长腿型又能展现恰到好处的性感。Kate Moss也曾穿过相似的条纹皮草大衣，还记得这个look吗？

Military Chic: Army Jacket

how to wear camo pants, how to wear army/military jackets, how to wear over-the-knee boots, On Olivia Palermo:zara military army jacket,Givenchy ‘Antigona’ medium tote,True Religion Casey Camouflage-Print Skinny Pants, black ballet flat, burgundy plum skinny belt, On Olivia Palermo: zara military army jacket, tibi belt, Ted Baker boots,Rebecca Taylor floral blouse,hermes bag,ray ban wayfarer sunglasses, Photos: Olivia Palermo; Courtesy of startraksphoto.com, splashnews.com.

Can fashion be practical and comfortable? Absolutely, military jacket is a brilliant example of that. It’s a great piece to throw on year-round. It goes with everything from basic T-shirt and jeans to glamorous maxi dress or polished pencil skirt. It compliments almost any color (from neutrals like brown to brights like orange) and prints (like stripes, leopard or florals).

A great tip on styling utility jacket is adding a luxe or feminine touch for the boy/girl vibe. As you can see from Olivia Palermo above, the camo pants, sleek boots on her enhance the utility chic while a floral printed blouse, haircalf skinny belt, designer handbag, ballet flats adding that delicate, luxurious touch.

I especially appreciate her attention to details: the pushed up sleeves showed off her beautiful sheer blouse underneath, a skinny or vintage belt highlighted her tiny waist, the unbuttoned shirt revealed just right amount of skin…

In Chinese: 时尚和实用可以兼备吗？当然可以，军装风的外套就是很好的例子。耐穿又耐脏，可单穿可混搭，既可以配短裤、牛仔裤，和长裙、铅笔裙等搭起来也别有风味。颜色更是百搭，无论配棕色黑色等中性色还是明橘、亮红等饱和色，无论搭条纹、动物纹还是印花，都很好看。

因为这种外套本身就有男孩子的酷帅感，所以我喜欢搭配有柔美或奢华感的细节来提升品质感。就像我们在Olivia Palermo身上看到的：迷彩裤和骑士靴呼应了军装外套的酷帅，精致的细腰带、奢华的手包、丝质或印花衬衫增加了女人味。

我尤其欣赏她对每一个细节的注意，比如把袖子略略推上去露出半透明的衬衫去和硬朗的外套做对比，把外套的扣子打开既有随意感又可以体现穿搭的层次，但是加一条腰带来强调腰线。深V的衬衫也展现了恰到好处的性感。

Fall Essentials: Over-the-Knee Boots & Impeccable Coat

Thanks to Balenciaga & Yves Saint Laurent who first introduced over-the-knee boots to the fashion world in the 60s, and legendary Karl Lagerfeld who popularized them by showing women that over-the-knee boots are a fashionable and practical alternative to leggings, now they already become a fashion staple that we rely on every fall/winter.

From the pioneers who rocked them in the 60s (led a strong trend against the iconic New look from Dior), you know that these babies are bad girls, they are tough, brave and sexy, which we should keep in mind when styling.

The streamlined menswear coat and outstanding cape coat showed on Miranda Kerr echo the cool-girl vibe of these boots. Mini skirts or shorts are the way to go with the high hem. And the best accessories? Your attitude!

膝上靴的流行真的要感谢设计师Balenciaga & Yves Saint Laurent，在上个世纪60年代，他们第一次把这种专门为男士们骑马而设计的鞋款引入了女性时装界。但这种靴型真正流行起来还要感谢Karl Lagerfeld，他在90年代设计的一个秋冬系列里用膝上靴代替传统秋冬穿的厚裤袜，从此每年秋冬，膝上靴就成了我们必不可少的单品了。

至于怎么搭配，回顾它的设计起源能给我们更多灵感。上世纪60年代正是迪奥最著名的new look盛行的时候，膝上靴的酷帅、性感和“坏女孩”的感觉吸引了一批对new look审美疲劳的时尚先驱们。

Miranda Kerr所选的单品，从狮身人面图案的T恤、迷你裙、男士款的大衣及独特剪裁的披肩外套等，都呼应了膝上靴的这种叛逆感和性感。
