A nice coat is definitely an investment-worthy piece, especially for fall/winter. Like my mom always told me: as long as you have a fabulous coat, you will look great no matter what you wear under.

This fall, cocoon is still one of the hottest coat shape. This one spotted on two style-conscious supermodels Miranda Kerr & Lily Aldridge instantly caught my eye: The hip grazing length is versatile, can be worn with anything from dress, skirt to leggings and pants; The sophisticated gray color is timeless, let alone the marble-like texture, which we’ve seen a lot on the latest runways; The slightly oversized shape has that popular sporty element, is right-on-trend and very flattering.

外套是最值得投资的基本单品，尤其到了秋冬。小的时候妈妈就常告诉我，一定要买好的外套，无论你里面穿什么，看起来都会很漂亮。

今年秋冬，宽松的可可呢大衣仍是大热的版型，最近在时尚超模Miranda Kerr 和Lily Aldridge身上看到的这件灰白色的外套吸引了我。刚好到臀部的长度非常百搭又修饰身形，从牛仔裤到裙子到内搭裤都可以配; 低调优雅的灰白色即能点亮整身look又不失秋冬的温暖感，织纹又很像明年会流行的大理石的图案；宽松的设计恰到好处，即有男友风外套的帅性感，肩部及领片的设计又展现了女性的柔美。

Colored blazer is a versatile piece we can wear for the office and weekend, I especially love cobalt blue version, because the color is eye-catching yet sophisticated, easy-going and ultra flattering. Did I mention that it’s the hottest color this season?

Last time, we shared how to style a blue blazer for warm weather (remember those gorgeous sandals, cute prints and distressed jeans? ). Today’s featured looks of Emma Stone & Jessica Alba showed us how to wear it for late summer and fall:

Dark colors and earthy tones are our go-tos for cold weather, and cobalt blue goes perfectly with those shades, like the grey, black, and rich brown showed on today’s featured stars; Accessories are always a quick, easy and affordable way to update any look. Here, Emma Stone opted for right-in beanie and menswear-inspired oxford to make the classic black/blue combination look fresh and updated while hot mom Jessica Alba chose red mirror sunglasses and statement jewelry for an edgy yet glamorous finishing touch.

彩色西装外套抢眼又百搭，上班休闲皆相宜。在众多的选择里我尤其偏爱宝蓝色，因为这个颜色既有活力又不失庄重，而且不分季节，也不挑肤色，刚好又是这个秋冬大热的颜色。上次我分享了一些春夏如何搭配宝蓝色西服的小贴士，这次我们从Emma Stone 和 Jessica Alba的这两个造型里学学在秋冬怎么穿它吧！

深色和大地色系是秋冬最常见的颜色，宝蓝色和这些颜色搭配起来都非常出彩，比如你在Emma Stone 和 Jessica Alba身上看到的黑、灰和棕色。这些基本色和宝蓝色的搭配是我们每季都可以拿出来穿的组合，要穿出潮流感，就要靠配饰了。Emma Stone所选的有运动元素的针织帽和中性帅气的牛津鞋都是今年秋冬大热的单品。或者像辣妈Jessica Alba一样，用撞色的眩光太阳镜和个性的金属饰品给经典的蓝黑搭配增加活力。

Skinny jeans & white tops (blazer, jumper or tee) are basics we all have in our closet, today’s featured looks above show us how to take these classic staples from the boardroom to the sidewalk.

Olivia Palermo used a mesh baseball tee and bright loafer to give her distressed jeans an up-to-date fashionable vibe while chunky jewelry and textured satchel adding extra punch. The overall look is casual, fresh yet polished, great for shopping, strolling around town or hanging out with friends.

Miranda Kerr always looks glamorous yet effortlessly chic. Here, a structured white blazer, a quilted chain shoulder bag and pointy toe pump instantly dress up her jeans while a blush silk top and coral lip adding a soft, feminine touch. This look is great for the office, meetings and many social events.

牛仔裤、西装外套、薄毛衣都是我们衣橱里的必备单品，注意一些细节的选择再加以适当的配饰，就可以用这些单品轻松打造出或正式或休闲的look.

Olivia Palermo的这件白色透视上衣即有时下大热的运动元素，剪裁又修身，加上亮色的复古包鞋，略带庞克风的手包，让普通的蓝白搭配休闲中更带有新颖时尚的酷帅感。

Miranda Kerr擅长把普通的单品穿得性感又利落。西装外套，尖头包鞋和Lanvin的链条包瞬间提升了休闲的牛仔踝裤，粉肤的丝质上衣和淡橘的唇色提升了气色又增加了柔美感。
