But in fact, when you go to Paris, you will find that there are few such fashion bloggers in Paris. It is rare to see young girls in beautiful clothes in the street.

But it is undeniable that there are many middle-aged women on the streets of Paris. They are very beautiful and elegant.

Even Li, a little assistant who came to Paris and Europe for the first time, lamented: "Middle-aged women in Paris are too good at wearing! Old ladies, coats and scarves, age and wrinkles are all their weapons. "

That is! Women in Paris are not only crazy when they are young, but also persistent from beginning to end.

I have written so many bloggers in Paris, mostly young girls, very Paris and very French.

But if you really want to wear French aristocratic temperament and keep middle-aged people elegant, you have to learn from the French blogger Mai Tai, who I introduced today.

Look at her photos, I don't feel the age limit at all, and I don't have any suspicion of act young. I am completely middle-aged, and I can wear whatever I want.

Although the figure is not slim enough for a little girl, with fat on her waist, wrinkled skin and wide hips, it is elegant at first glance.

Especially in autumn and winter, her clothing texture and matching skills are also first-class.

For example, this dark blue dress has a big black bag and a blue and white scarf on the left. If you add another khaki coat, you can go shopping directly.

Change it into a suitable match, jewelry necklace, small bag, and you can go directly to socialize the next second.

And I searched all her photos, and she especially likes to use the same item with different items, which leads to different chemical reactions.

So is the scarf.

I prefer the blue one. She and I must be bosom friends.

Today, let's take stock of what she is wearing and what is worth learning.

0 1, single item is expensive.

Although I won't say it directly, sharp-eyed readers must find that her bag and scarf are very expensive.

Yes, she loves Hermè s very much. She bought Hermè s herself and became a customer of vvvvip level.

The style she chose is also low-key and versatile, and there is no obvious logo. If you are not familiar with Hermes, it feels like a single product with a good texture.

Besides Hermes, she also likes some high-quality clothing brands.

For example, the color of this ordinary photo looks very simple, and you can hardly see any brand. It is casual and natural.

But everything has hidden secrets. This scarf belongs to Hermes. Needless to say, the light gray sweater is Max Mara's and the white jeans are Vince's.

Vince: I bought it. This black V-neck silk blouse is Vinc, which has a good texture.

For another example, this light blue knitted top, without obvious logo, looks very comfortable, but it is Gerard Darel, a luxury clothing brand from France.

Another example is this little floral sleeveless skirt, which comes from theory.

It also happens that I bought this brand. Last time, I recommended the Haitao website shopbop and placed an order for a theoretical suit jacket. It seems that our aesthetics are very consistent.

In fact, if you look closely at Mai Tai's clothes, most of them are basic models, with simple colors and styles.

You can't find too many redundant designs, but she always has her own requirements in texture, and she must look "expensive", which I wrote about kristin scott thomas before.

Try to choose brands and materials that are not easy to wrinkle and look good, enlarge the photos at close range and feel the charm of this single product itself.

Clothes with better texture will not be worn several times, and will lose their original color after washing, which can be matched with all the basic models in the wardrobe.

I'm Gerald Darryl up there.

But good quality does not mean luxury. Not that everyone has to spend a lot of money. Every dress must be bought by Hermes and Max Mara. Only when people reach middle age and want to wear texture, they must be willing to invest in better items for themselves.

Needless to say, the texture of this close-up is very advanced, and it is also from Gerald Dale.

Other accessories can only have one or two good ones occasionally. After all, we don't have collagen from young girls, so we should improve our texture from another aspect.

I also collected it for everyone myself. I can write down several clothing brands she wears most often in a small notebook.

In addition to Gerard Darel, Theory and Vince above, there is also the Swedish high-grade frigid brand Filippa K.

Black shirt Filipa K.

British designer stella mccartney is a brand with the same name. This brand is most famous for its star platform shoes.

Max Mara outside and stella mccartney inside.

This lemon yellow embroidered dress, which she has worn several times, comes from Weill, a century-old French clothing brand.

If you are interested, my next article can specifically introduce these worn-out brands. I have a look in official website, and all the brands she wears, in terms of tailoring, color and collocation, are completely in line with our middle-aged sister's appetite.

02. Color matching is very important.

In fact, this is already a commonplace topic in my writing.

We talked about looking for inspiration from the master's oil paintings.

Looking for inspiration from beautiful home pictures,

Here in mai tai, there is another solution: look for inspiration from scenic photos, which are very common in our lives.

For example, is this skirt covered with black and white ink marks reminiscent of the city at night? Choose two gold necklaces to match, just like the golden traffic lights flowing at night, shining.

Again, the same dress with a less eye-catching accessory immediately reminds people of beach seascape, round necklaces and earrings, just like street lamps beside trees.

Another way of thinking, the same scenery, just a little change in color, can extend another collocation.

The blue coat corresponds to the blue sky in the picture, and the silver earrings and white trousers echo the white beach.

This truly reflects the collocation skill of middle-aged women. Simple colors can solve all the collocation without relying on fashion elements or big-name LOGO.

She also likes to go to nature for inspiration, and many of them take photos of the scenery by themselves.

For example, this pink and white rose looks very bright, doesn't it? But when it comes to her collocation, the pink knit top with the white exaggerated necklace is really beautiful.

Or just put a pink rose next to Hermes silk scarf, which can also give her inspiration to wear.

Rose red silk scarf with white Vince jeans, if it is too bright, a gray sweater and dark gray Hermes bag will be very depressing, which will immediately make the whole person look low-key and have a bright fashion sense.

I bought a purple sweater and I don't know how to match it.

Look at the morning glory picture, with a green scarf, it will shine at the moment!

Can't find a suitable interior for beige fragrance coat?

Look at the flowers outside. They are your best color teachers.

Therefore, it is no wonder that there is a saying: "Nature is the best teacher of color matching."

03, scarf, scarf collocation

As a deep user of Hermes vvvvvip level, Mai Tai's collocation is naturally indispensable for Hermes' single products.

There is no bag here, because the first one is difficult to buy and the second one is expensive, so there is no reference.

But a silk scarf or scarf is a single item that every middle-aged girl can at least buy or touch.

From so many photos in front, it is not difficult to see Mai Tai's love for silk scarves. From the first one to now, there are at least 20 Hermes scarves.

I have observed that women who buy Hermes scarves, including myself, basically have only a few ways to go back and forth in the use and collocation of scarves, which are worn around their necks or as clothes.

After I saw Mrs. Mai, I found that she created dozens of different methods herself. Let me give you a brief introduction:

1, wrapping method.

This is the most basic and simple, basically everyone can do it, but remember, if you want to be more elegant, don't shrink your neck.

It is the most beautiful to leave a little to show your slender neck.

2. Simple folding hanging method.

This is one of the easiest ways. Fold the scarf diagonally from both sides to the middle, let it hang naturally, and it is suitable for leisure and outdoor wear.

Don't underestimate this simple method, which is the first step of the complex method used later.

You can wear it on a sweater, or you can wear it outside a suit jacket or coat.

You can also hide it in your coat.

If it is a long scarf, you can also fold it diagonally and put it over your shoulders.

Did you find that the color of her scarf echoes the color of accessories, such as bags and necklaces, which is also a way to match?

3. Triangular system method

This is also a relatively basic method. Fold the silk scarf diagonally, and then tie the ends of the diagonal.

There are no women here. No

4, use with scarf buckle

This is Mai Tai's favorite way to handle silk scarves, which is simple and changeable.

Most of her scarf buttons are oval "Japanese" with a horizontal bar in the middle, which is very easy to use.

First put both ends through the scarf buckle, from bottom to top, and then down. The scarf buckle is mainly vertical buckle.

This method is simple and easy to use.

Second, the silk scarf is buckled horizontally, and the scarf buckle is mainly buckled horizontally.

This kind of scarf is not difficult to use, but also elegant and suitable for small areas.

You can also move the buttons left and right to create another style.

You can also add a necklace to the silk scarf to make the whole look more luxurious.

The third one is Mai Tai's favorite. It's elegant, a little half-bowled, and not too girly. It's suitable for neutral or business clothes.

The half bow can be big and in full bloom.

It can also be a small bundle, symmetrical left and right, and become a complete bow.

Mai Tai also has another scarf buckle similar to finger pulling.

The way is probably similar to this "Japanese" button, and it is similar.

However, there is an extra silk scarf to wear, which plays the role of ornament.

A plurality of rings can also be matched together to form a circular scarf.

5, used as a belt

Scarf as a belt is also a common way, but Mai Tai invented several ways to tie it on jeans.

Fold it into 10 cm, and use it as a wide belt.

If the silk scarf is long, you can also tie a bow directly in front.

Really can't tie a knot. It looks just as good with a scarf buckle!

She has more uses for scarves. Here is a picture for your reference.

If she publishes a book about how to match silk scarves, I think I must be the first reader to buy this book!

Mai Tai has always been a blogger hidden in my heart and wants to introduce it to everyone for a long time.

In my opinion, the girlhood that China pursues is not what we should admire, but what we middle-aged sisters should learn is that we have experienced the precipitation of years like this, and we don't care about the baptism of wrinkles, and we don't care about the sameness and exquisiteness, and fully show our true beauty.
