Create a Color Contrast

Flatter Your Figure with Plus Size & Petite Harem Pants

Plus Size Figures:  For curvier figures, black harem pants are an excellent choice to create a slimming effect and flatter fuller legs. The dark color visually lengthens leg lines, creating a balanced and streamlined torso proportion. Pair black plus size harem pants with a fitted black top or a dark jewel-toned blouse to enhance this slimming effect.

Petite Figures: Petite women can beautifully wear high-waisted harem pants to elongate the legs. Choose high-waisted designs and pair them with lighter-colored tops such as white tank tops or tucked-in oversized T-shirts. Tucking in your top further defines the waist and shortens the upper body, maximizing the leg-lengthening effect.  For footwear, sandals or flats ensure a relaxed and casual vibe, while high heels instantly elevate the look, making it suitable for office wear and projecting a professional and polished style.  Pointed-toe heels will further enhance the leg-elongating effect.

Add interest with prints(Bohemian Vibe)

To add glamour and sophistication to your harem pants outfits, incorporate a vibrant pop of color. Bright blues, yellows, pinks, or reds are excellent choices to refresh and elevate your look effortlessly. Pair your colorful harem pants with a designer blouse, a chic cropped top, or a sophisticated turtleneck sweater.  Accessorize with a statement bag or bold jewelry to further enhance the chic and polished style.  Imagine red harem pants with a cream-colored silk blouse and gold jewelry, or bright blue harem pants with a black cropped top and a statement clutch.

Office Wear with Harem Pants (Polished Look)

Harem pants can even be adapted for office wear. For a more polished and professional look, choose harem pants in solid, muted colors like black, navy, gray, or beige. Pair them with a tailored blazer to add structure and sophistication to the billowy silhouette of the pants. Underneath the blazer, opt for a crisp button-down shirt or a simple, elegant blouse. Complete this office-appropriate ensemble with heels to elevate the look and project a professional vibe. Pointed-toe heels or classic pumps in neutral colors like black or nude are ideal choices.

Experiment with different fabrics 

For a more natural and relaxed look, consider harem pants made from linen, cotton, or ramie. Linen provides a soft, flowing drape ideal for summer, and pairing it with other loose-fitting linen garments creates a cohesive and comfortable outfit.

By incorporating these styling ideas, you can confidently and fashionably wear harem pants for various occasions and express your unique personal style. Experiment with different combinations and discover the versatility and comfort of this iconic garment!

We are always told to choose garments that suit to our figure, but ever wonder the new fad of wearing an oversized shirt dress? The versatile trend gives you various stylish combos from office wear, resort wear to casual wear. Unlike 5 Kinds Of Shirt Dresses To Make You Chic, this time I want to show you how to wear the white oversized shirt dress in Korean-style way.
For me, I quite like the idea of a black/white corset worn over a white knee-length dress, which really shows off the curves—taper to a small waist, highlight the breast, and lengthens leg lines. Moreover, the classic black and white goes well with each other and forms a strong color contrast. Go for a pair of minimalist shoes to finish the look and make it available for your daily wardrobe.

Leggings teaming with a white shirt dress is a classic Korean chic and delightfully feminine, also looking lovely with flats or sneakers.

Try the cropped leggings or ninth-length design to expose ankle, adding an extra unintentional sexiness. Upgrade your overall look with a belt or some fashion accessories for a real impact.

Jeans work equally as well with the oversized shirt dress, especially if they are skinny-tailored.

Korean women/ girls like to wear the skinny jeans with a loose shirt dress and heels to create a visual difference —tuck the shirt into jeans to lengthen their leg lines and making them look more slender as well.

Or choose the sneakers/ flats to highlight a laid-back effect.

The design of such a white dress is quite simple, but the denim jacket is helpful to make your look eye-catchy and trendy. Wrap your denim ensemble to your waist to update this basic look and accessorize with some statement jewelry, such as a watch, sunglasses, bracelets, headband for a more modern and chic inspiration. Of course, simply paring with a denim jacket also looks awesome as well.

A blazer is an ideal way to be the office-appropriate style. Go for the pointed-toe heels or mules and a clutch bag or handbag to accentuate your capable charm. In addition, the hue of black and white is utterly classical for your office wardrobe.
A shirt with a belt is perfect to enhance your silhouette, slim your waist and show off your figure. Usually, girls/women with long legs can choose the maxi shirt dress decorated with thigh slits because it does not only combine the sexy appeal but also present a more pronounced torso.

For those petite ladies, tie a belt around your knee-length shirt dress to create a summer definition and balance your silhouette as well.

How to glam up your simple white shirt dress? Opt for a pair of stilettos. I personally like leather fabric, which has a bright surface and good texture. Black stiletto is an obvious choice, but other bright colors like red, yellow, rose provide a pop of color and also work for every season, every occasion, and every outfit as well.

In fact, ankle boots are quite good for a sophisticated look. Try the leather booties with chunky heels and accessorize with a stunning bag or a piece of funky jewelery to make a casual summer style.

To further amp up your chic look, unbutton your shirt dress and wear a contrasting t-shirt underneath. This look is perfect for the beach and daily wear. It's comfortable, casual but not monotonous.

Tuck your oversized shirt dress into your denim overalls and match them with a pair of sandals. The combination will make you look youthful and still versatile for all seasons.

For a more preppy-style look, feature the vest over your shirt dress. Both two outfits go pretty well with each other and add an extra layering. Finally, simply select a pair of black shoes or loafers, and you are all set to go.

Ladies, if you are planning a beach vacation or a tropical journey in the next few months and wondering how to look chic and relaxed as a woman over 40 in such searing heat, you've come to the right place! Resort wear should be both stylish and practical, especially when our bodies and preferences have evolved with age. Let's dive into what makes the perfect resort wardrobe for women over 40.

Women over 40 may face several challenges when it comes to resort wear. These challenges are often related to changes in their bodies, lifestyles, and preferences. Some of the most common challenges are:

 

A. Comfort and body changes

Also, the clothes should be absorbent, cool fresh and won't stick to your skin, especially when the temperatures are above 35°C.

B. Proportional Balance

Choose the appropriate clothes that can flawlessly balance your torso and your legs well. 

For apple or pear shapes, consider tankini sets or flowing cover-ups to create a balanced silhouette.

Women with longer legs can confidently wear one-piece swimsuits or high-waisted shorts.
For an hourglass figure, wrap dresses and fitted tops will highlight your best features. Rectangle shapes can create curves with belted dresses and ruffled tops.

Base on the above considerations, these beach ensembles are must-have for a hot tropical/ beach holidays.

C. Age-appropriate style without looking matronly

Resort wear essentials for women over 40

Women over 40 may have different style preferences than younger women. They may prefer more conservative or modest clothing, or they may be looking for clothing that is comfortable and practical for travel.

1. Loose linen dresses

As one of the natural fibers, linen is comfortable, breathable, skin-friendly, anti-bacterial and can quickly expel the moisture. Moreover, the loose-fitting design is great for air flow, which is helpful to take our heat away easily and won't stick to your sun cream. Thus, the combination of linen and loose silhouette are definitely your beach staple.

2. Versatile Cotton Beach Towel:

It won't take up much space and convenient for drying your body and hair after diving or swimming.

3. Beach bag

Great for accessorizing your beach look and adding an extra boho chic. I personally quite like this rattan bag. I love the stars design that is distinguished from other ordinary bags.

4. Smart cover-ups

5. Footwear Variety

Espadrilles, dressy sandals, comfortable walking shoes, and flip flops.

6. Other fashion items

Such as maxi dresses, tank top, swimsuits, sunglasses: I have already made a detailed introduction in 10 ideas of what to wear to the beach, I'm not going to add any additional remarks.

After preparing all your resort wear, there are a few tips for packing your suitcase, which shows you the practical methods about how to pack up in a minimum space.

Styling Tips and Outfit Combinations

Now let's look at five complete outfit ideas that bring together all these elements:

1. Elegant beach day ensemble:  A white crochet cover-up adds sophistication and a touch of sexy without being revealing. Pair it with a blue one-piece swimsuit featuring supportive cups and subtle tropical prints. Accessorize with oversized tortoiseshell sunglasses and a structured straw tote bag. This combination provides coverage while looking undeniably chic for a beach walk or seaside lunch.

2. Evening resort elegance: A vintage-inspired turquoise maxi dress with black polka dots creates the perfect balance of elegance and femininity for warm evenings. The maxi length provides coverage while remaining appropriate for the climate. Pair with black fringe earrings that elongate the neck and simple black sandals with a slight heel. This versatile outfit works for everything from casual dinners to more formal resort events.

3. Pool day confidence:  A striped tankini provides classic style with practical tummy coverage—perfect for active pool days. Layer with a sheer oversized shirt dress in a complementary color, which not only provides sun protection but also visually lengthens your legs with its half-length design. Complete with a functional straw tote and comfortable flip-flops for a look that transitions effortlessly from poolside to beachside café.

4. Casual resort daywear:  Bermuda shorts (walk shorts) are not only good for tropical vacations but also good for daily wear. They go well with a tank top, blouse, t-shirt, vest, giving us a casual yet modern vibe. If you want a romantic date on the beach, this very reasonable wrap blouse would work well. You can dress it up with a pair of cute wedges and a leather tote, too.

5. Glamorous sunset beach outfit:  A colorful printed sarong wrapped as a skirt adds tropical excitement and creates a flattering silhouette when paired with a supportive bandage one-piece in a solid, complementary color. Complete this look with a wide-brimmed white hat for sun protection, statement sunglasses, and a woven handbag. This combination offers the perfect balance of sophistication and beachy glamour for sunset walks or beachfront dining.

Under the exchange and collision of different cultures, Chinese designers get inspirations about how to absorb the essence of modern fashion and combine those elements of their homeland to their products, making them shine on the international stage.

For another, international designers have also shifted their eyes to Chinese culture and added the Chinese auspicious elements in their designs, such as the crane, ocean weaves, peony, etc.

As the Spring/Summer 2019 runway comes to an end at China Fashion Week, it's time to take a look at the 7 fashion trends that emerged along this way.

Embroidery, as a traditional handicraft with nearly 3,000 years of history in China, is also a common embellishment for high-end clothing in the world. In this China Fashion Week, embroidery tends to be more elaborate, fashionable and more skillfully decorated on the apparel.



Except for the traditional patterns, the designers also get inspirations from Chinese ink painting, which adds an extra retro vibe and brings a color impact and flowing beauty on their designs. Keep scrolling to see how it works on different outfits, especially the silk maxi dresses, jackets or pants.



With the irresistible aesthetic perception, ruffles are getting a major update in a stereoscopic form. The stereo construction not only breaks the monotony of the fabric but also gives the look a unique and dynamic rhythm.

Opt for ruffles, fine embroidery, beautiful prints that add a little extra adorning to your spring collections.

The below brands choose a more minimalist look with a maxi dress that looks good on everyone.

Or take on the look with an oversized designer blouse and a pair of printed leggings that could effortlessly be your streetwear.

All fashion savvy ladies know how to present their sexy appeal in a casual way. It's best to get dressed from the crochet / hollow out dresses. Think: crochet details and an overall white, but elegant appearance completes with slits or fringed design, which is definitely the best graceful look in your new wardrobe.

There are plenty of crochet options to choose- upgrade your office-wear for a crochet white blouse and black pants/ midi skirt, it all felt like a welcome office surge.

Or complete your street ensembles with a hollow-out detail, which really takes your look to a new territory with an oversized hoodie dress done in a pop of yellow and blue.

The adorning details, like a work of art, are rich in visual impact and texture, making the costume more high-grade and luxury. And for those who prefer something a bit more subtle, there were statement beading dresses at J.Queen, 绝设•朱光妍, which fully explain this trend on the runway.

Applique proves its versatility this season. From White Honey's wedding dresses to EP雅莹's evening options/ daily basis, it’s clear that the applique details will be popping up in plenty of different occasions and continue to pack a romantic impact in 2019.

Cheongsam or Qipao, a traditional Chinese costume, are given a modernized update for the 2019 woman. Designers loosen the silhouette of a standard Qipao and change the stiff mandarin collar to V-neck, crew neck or common stand collar to make it look more casual, as I told you in < When Chinese Fashion Meets Modern Fashion>.

Meanwhile, they also give a hint of newness to the Pankou designs (an essential button decorated on Qipao), making them more novel, extraordinary but without losing an retro vibe.
