If you ask me what is my favourite colour, that could be the hardest question to me. I love bright colours: red, pink, blue, purple… the latest item on my wish list is the Urban Decay Electric Palette! You can’t imagine how much I love those vivid combinations. However I’m always a fan of simple and practical looks as well. Because, as you may know, the winds of fashion change their direction every second. And for the people who are picky about colours (like myself), there might be more than 10 different types of red; who knows which one is gonna be the next trend?
我一直以来都是个有色彩选择困难症的人。如果有人非要问我最喜欢的颜色是什么， 我可能会纠结一会儿然后把顺位前五名说出来，然后加上“此排名不分前后”。我还记得最近跟阿布说我喜欢Urban Decay那个五彩缤纷的电光眼影盘得到了怎样一个大白眼。但是色彩纠结这件事儿同时导致了我买衣服的时候倾向简单实用的色彩搭配。首先是我喜欢干净简洁的整体造型。再者，我记得在哪里看到过，张艺谋拍英雄的时候跟日本来的服装编导说要红色，结果人家拿了出来40多种红色让他选择。在时尚界也是一样，今天是大红色明天是橘红色，谁又能预测明年的秀场什么颜色横空出世？
The same as the structure of the outfit. For example, the boyfriend style was so popular for such a long time. However, how many normal girls (by normal I mean you are not as tall and slim as Miranda Kerr or Ming Xi) can bring the essential bit of the style, ‘feminine and sexy’, into their looks? Baggy and loose jeans with a light colour will look good with a clean and tight top, but you will definitely look pregnant if you match it with a loose hoodie that doesn’t show your neck and chest. I’m not being mean to those who are obsessed by a style which doesn’t fit them. All I want to do is to suggest an alternative.
同样的，衣服的整体廓型每年也有不同的趋势。打个比方，男朋友风格在淘宝的热搜排行榜上呆了好几年。但是妹子们有能有多少能把这种风格穿的跟超模街拍一样的韵味呢？我不直一次见到过有妹子穿着浅色的宽松牛仔裤，上衣配一件宽松的长开衫。从远处看过去感觉就是孕妇打扮。这种牛仔裤的造型关键点就是在上装。能够体现曲线和女人味的上装才能跟下半身的酷感完美结合，出现一种另类的性感。脖颈周围的肌肤的裸露感更是加分项。我只是觉得与其盲目跟风不如专注在自己适合的款式上面。
As you may know, everybody goes through a period when you are obsessed by ‘the shorter the better’. So was I. I bought this black jumper dress 4 years ago before I came to Sydney. I didn’t even wear it once, because at the time I thought it’s too long for me. However, I started to realise that to wear less doesn’t equate to sexy at all! The design around the waist shows the body shape but not too tight to show people your stomach; the softness of the material brings out the feminine side of you; the length which I struggled with before can match every occasion: going out with your boyfriend, hanging out with girlfriends, or even a casual business meeting!
我也跟很多妹子们一样，有一阵子执着于裙子的长度。总觉得够短才好看够性感。所以4年前我买来这条裙子的时候就嫌弃它太长扔在一边儿一次都没穿过。但是最近我开始发现绑的你动弹不得的绷带装不见得性感，短的让你走路边走边往下拉的裙子更是让人尴尬。而这种细毛线材质的连衣裙会让人觉得你很苗条但是又线条很柔和。我以前不喜欢的长度更是可以搭配各种场合：跟男友约会，跟闺蜜们逛街，甚至跟老板去喝咖啡！
