Where's that shining flower 'neath the Eiffel tower?
Where's that fairy land of gold?
-- Judy Garland "Paris is a Lonely Town"
A while ago, I saw a rather interesting outfit blogpost here, it is inspired by a magazine editorial in which you take one item from an outfit and reuse it for the next one. I always love this kind of editorials, it motivates you to find more ways of mixing and matching your existing clothes instead of buying new ones, though I daresay I could always find fresh excuses to perform the latter ;)
前一陣子，我在 Rossi 的部落格中看到蠻有趣的穿搭接力文（這裡），靈感源自日文雜誌的穿搭單元，主要是取穿搭中的一件單品去用在下一次穿搭當中，好像連鎖反應啊！XDD 我超愛這種單元的啦，會刺激你為你的舊衣找出更多搭配的方法，而不是一直添購新衣 ... 雖然我永遠找得到新的理由讓我繼續買 :P
Well, this time I'm keeping the palette simple with mainly blue, white and beige. Nothing too romantic, complicated or frilly this time, haha!
這次的一週穿搭接力，我主要走清爽的藍、白、裸色系。因為想要比較偏夏天的簡約風，所以浪漫指數給它調低啦 XDD
Dress : from In-house Gallery
Shoes : Summit
My recent acquisition -- an Eiffel Tower print dress with a rather chic silhouette. The mandarin collar imparts a rather working woman feel, non?
我最近的戰利品 -- 巴黎鐵塔印花洋裝，版型跟剪裁都深得我心 >///< 那個中山裝的領口莫名有種職業女性的幹練感啊 XD
Dress (worn as shirt) : from In-house Gallery
Skirt : Chalala
Clutch : Taobao.com (here)
Voila! A dress as shirt combo! Bought this flared skirt from online boutique Chalala years ago, I'm not even sure if that still exists now LOL. The skirt is actually a deep navy shade, and I seriously adore the scalloped hem and the neat little laser cut-outs.
科科～把洋裝穿成上衣啦！這件圓裙是兩年前跟 Y 拍賣家 Chalala 入手的韓版單品，老實說這個賣家還在不在我也不確定 XD 這裙子其實是深到接近黑色的深藍，然後我對裙子的扇形邊跟裙擺那一圈精緻的鏤空雕花很有愛啊 >///<
Sandals : Vincci
Bag : Vincci
I've paired the skirt with a lace tunic this time, keeping the palette simple with just navy and white. This EMODA tunic is one of my favourites, a lace top with rose motifs and a cute chiffon bow at the back.
這次把裙子跟蕾絲罩衫搭在一起，整個色系依然是簡單的深藍 x 白。這件 EMODA 的罩衫是我的愛將之一，有著玫瑰圖案的鏤空蕾絲加上背後一個可愛的雪紡蝴蝶結綁帶。
Shorts : Nichii
Shoes : Summit
Clutch : Taobao.com (here)
The tunic can be paired with shorts as well, for a simple all-white look perfect for summer. I've added some blue accessories for a pop of colour. This bright blue clutch from Taobao is just incredibly cheap, and though it is perhaps not that well-made, it turns up really nice in photos, haha!
這件罩衫也可以拿來搭短褲，這次走適合夏天的簡單 all-white 風。我也用了些藍色的配件作為點綴，為整體穿搭增加一抹色彩。這個亮藍色的手拿包是在淘寶入手的，超便宜的。雖然實品看起來質感 so-so，不過它還蠻上相的 XD
Shorts : Nichii
Bag : Vincci
Well, beige and white is certainly one of my go-to colour combinations for summer. This beige chiffon top which I got from Romwe.com is a versatile piece, it looks simple without being plain, and the studded collar adds an edgy touch to an otherwise simple outfit.
裸色 x 白色是我喜愛的夏季配色之一。這件購自 Romwe.com 的裸色雪紡襯衫是個百搭單品，看起來簡單卻不普通，而領口的鉚釘為簡約的穿搭增加了一些時尚感。

Shoes : Summit
The idea of pairing different shades of beige is not neccessarily bad. This chiffon skirt, also from Taobao, has more of a pink undertone, and I attempted to balance out the beige overload by utilizing accessories of a deeper shade.
把不同深淺的裸色系搭在一起也不是不可行啊！這件淘寶的雪紡長裙比起上衣的裸色較為偏橘粉。另外，我使用了深色系的配件來中和穿搭中過多的裸色。

The chiffon maxi skirt can be easily worn as a dress, just add a belt of your choice and voila! The fabric falls beautifully, and the length is just right for me in a demure sort of way ;)
這件雪紡長裙也可以當洋裝穿喔～加個喜歡的腰帶就可以了！這件的雪紡垂墜度很美，然後穿起來的長度對我來說剛好 ... 是今年流行的及膝長度啊！XD

Well, that's that then!
As a final note, a shot of the nail colour that I used throughout this post!
穿搭部分就醬啦！
最後來一張整篇穿搭使用的指甲油照片！
I'm using Essie 768 Cocktail Bling, and I really like the formula. It is kind of watery and glided on effortlessly, but pigmented enough so that two coats is sufficient to hide any smile lines.
這次使用的是 Essie 768 Cocktail Bling. 這瓶的質地我很喜歡，比較偏水所以很容易擦得均勻，但是又不會太稀，大約塗兩層就可以很好的遮住微笑線了 :)
This time, another blue-themed Instagram medley to end the post! You can join me on my IG @ bonjourjasmineblog :)
這次，還是用最近很有愛的藍綠色主題 IG 拼圖作結束！大家可以到我 IG (帳號是 bonjourjasmineblog) 找我聊天噢 :)
