Pop art is a huge trend this season. Usually we will wear art-inspired prints with neutrals for balance, but Miranda Kerr said otherwise by pairing her Prada printed coat with floral patterns and cheerful hues, mainly because the oversized abstract print on her coat is fairly neutral. A bag that has colors on her coat and skirt ties everything together. It’s an outfit she wore to a baby shower. Nothing beats a pretty, spirit-lifting outfit to celebrate a new life, right?

In Chinese: 今年春夏的T台上随处可见波普艺术的身影。穿这些画作般的图案时，我们一般会用中性色去衬托，但是辣妈米兰达·可儿（Miranda Kerr）配上了同样抢眼的花朵图案和明亮的色彩。成立的关键在与她的外套的图案基本都是中性色，再加上被放大的抽象效果，让这样一件流行的单品值得投资又容易搭配。她的印花包既有大衣的颜色，又有小花裙的颜色，把整身造型很好地统一起来。

When in doubt, wear red. It’s classic yet eye-catching, elegant yet sexy, feminine and graceful. It instantly boosts your energy. No matter what your skin tone, there is a perfect red for you. It’s all about getting the undertone right. If you have a warm skin tone like Kate Bosworth, look for yellow-based red, like orange-red, watermelon, bittersweet red, and choose gold accessories to bring out the warmth. If you have a cool skin tone, opt for blue-based red like blue-red, rose, and use silver or turquoise as the perfect finishing touch.

In Chinese: 红色是永恒的经典，优雅性感，富有女人味。而且能瞬间提亮肤色、带来好心情。而且无论你是什么肤色、发色，总有一款属于你的红。如果你像凯特·波茨沃斯 (Kate Bosworth)一样是暖肤色，带黄色基调的红更衬你的肤色，比如橘红、西瓜红，配饰选用暖色调的金色。反之，如果你是冷肤色，则选择偏蓝调的红，比如玫瑰红，选择银色或有民族风的蓝松石的配饰。

This is a woman who has her distinctive style that amazed the world, a woman who knows what she wants and suits her best. These two outfits are the epitome of that: They are very ‘Kate’ with the nipped-in waist and elegant knee length; They are perfect for the occasions and very comfy to wear; More over, the color shows her respect to the hosts (yellow is one of Australian’s colors).

Tips learned: your personal style, body type, and targeted occasion should always been kept in mind when dressing in the morning, right?

In Chinese: 深受大家喜爱的凯特王妃具有独特的个人魅力和标志性的穿衣风格，她知道自己适合什么并坚持自己的风格。今天的这两个她出访澳大利亚的造型就是典型的凯特风：收腰及膝裙配上她最爱的平价包鞋，不仅亮眼、舒适，而且颜色的选择也体现了对东道主的尊重（黄色是澳大利亚的颜色之一）。毕竟，我们每天穿衣的目的都是想要让服装要和自己的风格、体型、肤色匹配，和当天的活动契合，不是吗？
