There are no other fashion trends that represent spring and summer better than bright colours and floral/botanical prints.
Whist the black-and-white monochromatic statement look is big this season, nothing can stop the streets booming with vibrant colourful looks and various romantic prints/patterns this time of year!
Some might think it’s overly girly or too feminine to wear such bold tones and outspoken graphics… but I disagree!
It’s really about your attitude and styling. I am going all out here by wearing a pair of sharp neon apricot coloured jeans (they’re ripped, therefore not really so girly, right?! :)) and a silk blazer filled with delicate botanical prints, plus statement jewellery! It seems crazy, I know, but they work perfectly together.
That’s why I love styling and mixing the impossible, it’s just like doing chemical experiments – you really never know what’s going to come out in the end. Sometimes you get a lovely surprise, and other times… hmmm, maybe it doesn’t turn out quite so well! Nonetheless, you always learn something in the process.
Here, I chose to wear only a blazer without anything underneath; it’s risky yet uber sexy and delivers a powerful look. I’ll never forget the first time I saw a woman wearing a simply cut black blazer/suit jacket with nothing else underneath walking down the street in London – she was so confident and amazingly HOT! Others might think it’s a bit provocative, but the difference is really in how you carry yourself.
I’ve always been obsessed with rubies and gold; they can easily elevate and add class to an outfit. Gold is a big trend in jewellery this year so if your jewellery box is looking a little empty, it’s time for you to start collecting!
Black is a shade that’s always safe to match with almost any other colour, hence the black sunglasses, black sandals and black beads.
Every trend can be adapted or tweaked to suit your own style; don’t sacrifice your style by just blindly following trends. Nonetheless, don’t be afraid to have fun with different trends, even if you think they might not be your usual style.
Be your own boss, and stay true to your style!

說起春夏季的時裝大勢，離不開明亮色調與花卉/植物圖案。
除了這季異常流行的黑白單色襯搭，每年的春夏時尚風都離不開鮮艷色彩與不同的浪漫印花及圖案。
或者有人會問，如此鮮明的色調與圖案不會過於女性化？我可不會這麼快下定論！
其實一切取決於你的造型與衣著品味。好似我今天，穿著螢光橙色的牛仔褲 (經洗水後增加了粗獷，cool一些的感覺。）搭配植物圖案的絲質外套及大件首飾！看似不太搭調，但出來的效果卻相當合襯。
將不同的元素 mix & match 是很過癮的事，就像做實驗一樣，未到最後都不會知道結果。有時你會有意外驚喜，有時效果不太理想。無論如何，在每一次的嘗試過程中你總是學習到了一些新的搭配技巧。
我這次選擇只穿外套不穿上衣，這樣看起來更性感，能帶來震撼的視覺效果。記得有次我在倫敦街頭看到一位女士，穿上一件簡約的黑色外套而內裡空無一物，從她身上散發出來的自信與火辣令我難忘。有人可能會覺得她賣弄風情，但一切視乎你能否駕馭自己的形象。
配飾方面，我一向鍾情紅寶石與金的款式，輕易提升造型格調，特別是金首飾是本季度大熱之選（我從去年就開始說了，大家有沒有留心呢？）。如果你仍未為今季入手心水配飾，不妨選擇用金打造的首飾！
黑顏色向來是任何造型的穩陣之選，正如這次我配上黑色太陽眼鏡、黑色涼鞋及黑色頸錬，令整體造型不至太浮誇。
雖然每季有不同潮流，但千萬別盲目跟從，一定要配合自己的風格。與此同時，也不要太過保守，有時放膽一試，嘗試一些你從未想像過的衣著配搭，可能會為你找到新風格。
做自己，忠於自己的風格！記得，要穿出自己的風格，而不能讓潮流駕馭你。
