Last week, Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, celebrated her 40th birthday, and the British royal family released an official photo to celebrate her birthday.
Many netizens are sighing: Kate is really powerful, the figure and appearance remain like a day for ten years, which is like a 40-year-old person?
She and William run a family of five who seem harmonious and loving, and there is simply no one of the most positive "princesses".
As a rule, there should be a "40 classic fashion moments of Kate" to celebrate her birthday, but less than half of the editors began to play drums in their hearts, because they could guess what your message looked like:
"The more boring it is", "I'm tired of watching it", "no surprise and no joy"...
Oh, similar statements have appeared before.
It's not that our newspaper friends are too picky Ha, everyone is honest, watching Kate's street photos in recent years, is it more or less in the heart to mutter: Will this be too bland?
You want to say that she didn't take the heart, every time she was seriously dressed up, but the strength was spent, and we couldn't say the word "fashionable". There is a sign of hard work but not flattery, and it is slowly emerging.
You must know that she has also experienced the stage of wearing what everyone closes their eyes and praises! Or a master of carrying goods, the front foot of the single product on the upper body, the back foot can be sold out of stock.
So, why do the former "excellent students" who used to wear it look like they are about to become "negative teaching materials"?
The reason was obvious, first of all, the rules of royal dress that held her tightly.
Anything that requires creative engagement, once there are too many restrictions (and tough and non-flexible), must not produce too many sparks.
Dress is no exception, the royal family's dress code for its female members will be specific to the length of the skirt, the color of the coat, and the height of the heel of the shoe, and, under this premise, there will be many "moral pacesetters" who voluntarily join the ranks of supervision, holding up a magnifying glass to observe their every appearance.
In this way, who would dare to dress as much as they want? It doesn't hurt at a glance, as long as you don't make a mistake. That relaxed and natural fashion attitude, she can't have anymore.
However, the editor does not want to use this dress code as a shield for her.
Because she is also a member of the royal family, she also does not have much freedom to dress, and the 9-year-old Queen of Spain, Letizia, who is 9 years old, and beatrice Borromeo, the "hidden princess" of Monaco, who is 4 years old, seems to have not given up, at least every appearance can bring some surprises.
So the second reason, it should be that Kate and her styling team are lazy. This has led to her wearing style becoming more and more solidified, although from time to time will turn over the big designer's brand, but the idea and matching way of picking clothes is completely stuck at the level of 10 years ago.
Next, there are some examples of "it's not too big to watch the hilarity".
When Meghan Markle has not yet "fled" from the British royal family, he is often in the same frame as Kate, and when the two are compared, the word "obsolete" written on Kate's Look is directly bolded and enlarged.
The 2017 Royal Christmas event was supposed to be the first official frame for the two of them, with Megan wearing a Sand coat from Canadian brand Sentaler, paired with Stuart Weitzman's brown boots and Chloe's bag.
Turning her head to look at Kate, Miu Miu's green plaid dress has a Christmas atmosphere, but with that hat, it really looks like a Russian choir costume (Sorry).
The melon-eating masses have always liked the new and tired of the old, and this appearance set the tone of the two people after the same frame: the royal fashion director is the newcomer Megan, and Kate is temporarily reduced to a foil.
Let's look at the same frame with my brother and sister-in-law at an event in 2020 after Meghan Harry's "brexit", which is red and green at a glance, which is a configuration that has been greeted in advance.
Meghan's green dress is from Emilia Wickstead, and Kate's is from Catherine Walker, both British brands, but one heavy design, one heavy ceremonial.
With comparison, it is easy to produce results, and in general, Kate's active dress is a feeling of "above the everyday, but not gorgeous".
In fact, these Looks have "once looked good", but the trend is constantly changing, the public's aesthetic is also fluid, ten years ago so fashionable to wear, ten years later may not be.
If the style is unique enough, there is still a chance to turn red, but if you play the decent safety card, it is no wonder that everyone lifts the table.
The one who can break through many obstacles to free play is also one of the dai concubines of that year. So the next editor will take two generations of "princesses" as an example, no other purpose, is to let everyone choose clothes and collocations, do not step on the "boring and boring" thunder.
Kate's coat is divided into two types, one is a very Russian style double-breasted coat dress, which can be worn directly as an event dress.
There is also a slightly "everyday" long coat, with excellent texture and close cut, suitable for the tall and thin Kate to control.
These two coats have something in common: narrow sleeves at the waist + double-breasted, the former showing the waist, the latter showing solemnity.
In this way, everyone should also be able to find the reason for the "unfashionable": the popular coat style is just trying to get rid of these two points to do design!
Too much emphasis on the details of women's curves have been removed, the shape is as loose and structured as a men's coat, not only does not close the waist but also adds shoulder pads, so that the people who wear it look full of aura and majesty.
Secondly, it is also due to the different ideas of collocation, Kate is very "honest" in wearing clothes, and there will be no extra tricks.
Dai Fei is different, she is very confident that she understands this matter, her clothes are all for the scene, so there is a sense of conflict and "human taste", more real, not like a doll.
Fortunately, Kate is also opening up, her last year (not quite able to accept that 2021 is already last year' thing), this event suit, chose Massimo Dutti's camel coat, still double-breasted, but the fit is slightly relaxed, the point is that she played a whole body of smooth oh, the sense of detail is how it comes!
So, the waist and proportions are not needed? Yes! I just don't want it to be so simple and straightforward.
Otherwise, if you think about it, why celebrities & bloggers are so willing to open their coats to wear, even if the underwear is still loose, but still "dark poke" to mark the waist and leg length.
Instead of "pinching" out like Kate before, it is highlighted by a one-step-back and one-forward approach. For example, the underwear is changed to a high-waisted model, or the hem of the long Top is tucked into the pants
The difference between our commuter clothes and everyday wear is narrowing, and unless there is a strict Dress Code, loose dress and fashionable will be what everyone wants to achieve.
These coats can help you be fashionable and not old-fashioned:

Fano studio hooded horn button women's tweed coat coat woman

Our misunderstanding of the horn buckle coat was really big!
I used to think it was a representative of the British Academy style, right? In fact, people can also be very fashionable! First of all, you have to choose the right style, the above one, for example, has been improved to be less student, but retro literature is a lot, milk white is also very lining the skin tone!
Second, you have to understand the collocation, the more retro elements, the more you need to neutralize the sense of seriousness in some daily items, for example, with jeans is obviously much more suitable than with suit pants.
Fano studio horn button fur coat in one
Price: 449
Isn't it enough for any of the items to be hairy this year? Horn buckle + fur in one, is this idea interesting enough? It doesn't take a lot of brain cells to match, turtlenecks, hoodies, shirts and so on, and they all look good at will.
It's soft and sticky to wear, and it's also very good!
If Kate's closet is open for viewing, obsessive-compulsive people will have to queue up.
Spring and summer is a water dress plus one piece dress, autumn and winter is a coat + suit, the direction of the selection is neat, no accidents, you can imagine the kind of spectacular after the classification of neat.
The style of suit she likes is also quite ancient.
This piece that once swept the fashion circle was called the small suit. The cut is relatively close-fitting, the length is moderate, the waist is closed and the cuffs are closed, and the hem will be slightly upturned, which was also a must-have for the wardrobe of exquisite OL.
Inside only a close-fitting underwear, with wide-leg pants is very smart.
But this piece is actually very demanding on the figure, but where there is a thrown pendulum meat on the arm, you don't want to wear it well, the front is strong and the side is bulging, and the tightness is not "elegant".
Everyone usually has such a lot of pressure, after spelling the collarbone, you have to fight the vest line, and when you reach the arm level, you really have to collapse, so you just let yourself go.
As a result, the small suit has almost no trace, and now it is the world of the big suit.
At this point, Princess Dai saw a little bit the same.
Although her arms are not swinging meat, she likes to dress in a strong way, so a big suit with a bit of "manhood" has become her must-have.
The neutral casual style interpreted by Dai Fei is really a classic. She would wear a pullover sweatshirt under a loose suit, paired with sweatpants and cowboy boots, and finally press a baseball cap, like a handsome tomboy.
With the skirt is also good-looking, the small black skirt is a classic, but there will be a little monotonous and easy to show restraint, after adding a large suit, there is more layering, and the image of a dashing big woman will also come out.
Today, the popularity of this item may be about to match the shirt, whether it is Gao Mei or Harpy, they are rushing to wear it.
The big suit seems to have unlimited space, and you can wear several pieces in layers, and you can also spend the winter!
You can also wear it inside the coat as an "inner fit", really not too practical.
These big suits, please actively unlock:

The editor is a bit of a zipper plot, always feel that with this detail of the piece, whether it is a top or pants, it comes with a sense of coolness.
The design of the fit of this suit is the kind that can easily lift the air at a glance, and the position of the zipper is arranged very cleverly, and you unconsciously want to shake off the hem of the clothes and stride to walk

This woolen suit has the magic of love at first sight, everyone look closely Oh, it is a "fake two pieces", the double placket design allows you to automatically unlock the stacking function!
Apricot gray, as the new "net red" color in the editor's heart, is quietly conquering my wardrobe, which is the true color of the low-key fashionable star! As for the version, it looks thick, so it is also more handsome, specializing in all kinds of small hunchbacks, high and low shoulders and so on, you say, is there magic?
This last point is actually the causal relationship with the existence of the previous text, because Kate likes slim coats and suits, and there is naturally no way to change too much on the inside, and it can't be stuffed.
You see, in her coat, is not generally this very classic high-necked underwear; in the small suit, visually there are also some close-fitting sleeveless Tops.
Compared with Concubine Dai, who had just been promoted to a new mother, her coat was not only full of thoughts, but also the accessories were neat, and even the makeup was "moved", if this person had a heart that loved fashion, it was impossible to hide.
Well, the editor has helped everyone broaden the idea of choosing coats and suits, and as for the inner frame, there is a lot of space in it to give you creativity.
Matching a shirt and a tight collar is a more conventional way of thinking. The editor's little skimming step this year is - the knitted cardigan can also be stuffed to see, but also have to specialize in that kind of "grandma style", now take it as an underwear, super fashionable Oh.
Didn't mom's twisted sweater turn the fire? If you wear it alone, you do have a retro feeling of being overwhelmed, but it is quite Chic when you take it as an inner layer.
Here are some of the knitwear items that can now be worn under the belt and worn for spring at the end of the year:
322WORKHOUSE workshop mulberry silk cashmere knit cardigan
Original price: 639 Poster Special: 449
The skill of knitting cardigans is also very large, when the inner layer can be like the above bloggers, wear in coats or down jackets, increase the sense of layering, and when the weather warms up, the blazer will also need it as a base, so be sure to choose a classic enough, good texture.
For example, the one where the editorial department was planted collectively, why does it look so close and the drape is great? The designer told us that because of the use of 16-needle pit strip weaving, it takes time, but the effect is visible to the naked eye, and the feeling of the body is really good.

Price: 289
The editor of the stranded sweater is also looking for a long time, and the style is purely reproduced a lot of the mother's hand-knitted model, but the effect behind the upper body is also really "retro", or it has to be improved.
First of all, the version should not be too close-fitting, this sweater comes with a sense of volume, looser can break the sense of binding. Secondly, the collar and cuffs need to keep pace with the times, and some lively and cute little details are still important!
Well, I didn't expect that the original starting point was a birthday inventory, and finally wrote Kate "Black Text" (scared), bowed to the birthday star, owed her 40 selected Looks, we will obediently make up for it later!
