Van

Lead Designer
Hometown: Hanoi, Vietnam

The shape is not the best, but I like the style, and with a belt it will probably look much better. It fits very well and is just my size. It has an inner lining so it's not too thin and I don’t have to worry about it being see-through.

They are very comfortable! Next time I would order one size bigger. I hope they last a long time.

Dream Catcher Earrings

From ￥15.05

They are super cute, and very light, so they don’t drag my ears down. The seller also included a free pair of silver earrings with the purchase!

Total Price: 130.05 RMB

I think the fabric is comfortable and flattering. The white color is a bit sheer so make sure you don't wear anything dark colored underneath it!

These shoes are very comfortable to wear and look more expensive than they are. The color is nice too.

 It's light, cool and I love the design of the back. It's perfect for spring or summer, very versatile.

Total Price: 198.80 RMB

Cotton Off-Shoulder Top

From ￥25.10

The fabric is soft, it fits well and is perfect for the hot Shanghai weather. It will need to be ironed after it arrives.

A versatile skirt that is decent quality. Not bad!

12-Piece Choker Set

From ￥12.39

I liked the design, and each set includes so many! I will give some away as gifts to friends.

These shoes are comfortable and looked exactly as advertised. They are also available in larger sizes, which is really convenient.

Total Price: 200.59 RMB

Show Off Your Shoulders This Summer

You may have noticed that off shoulder tops are hugely popular these days. Known to many as the “Bardot Top”, it owes its name to sixties fashion icon, Brigitte Bardot. Even after all these years, she remains throughout the world a symbol of timeless French style.  

Why have so many women fallen in love with this style? It reveals a flattering cut of women’s shoulders in a chic and feminine way, without showing too much. And now, the trend has been updated with plenty of different types of off shoulder tops; try it cropped, slim-fit or even flared!

Today, we’ve found some different looks for you to get inspired by.

WITH A SKIRT

Like Rocky Barnes or Meagan Faye, mix and match your skirt (maxi or mini) with a Bardot top. Give some volume to your look by choosing a flared style.

WITH SHORTS

You can never go wrong mixing an off shoulder top (choose high-waisted, cropped styles or the classic slim fit!) with casual denim shorts. Here’s how Federica and Julie Sarinana put their looks together.

AS A DRESS

We can often find the Bardot top’s neckline on a dress, as it is so flattering and feminine for any body type. Federica chose a slim fit yellow dress, while Julie adopted a looser fit and a tropical print also trending this season.

Here are some similar styles we’ve found right here on Baopals. Make sure you have at least one of them in your wardrobe for this summer!

Guest blogger Concetta Borli comes from a tiny country best known for its delicious waffles, beers and chocolate. In this country, the temperature never exceeds 28 degrees, so you can only imagine how she is melting here. Fortunately, off shoulder tops exist and are a good alternative for not going to work in a bikini top.

The Comeback Of Big, “Ugly” Sneakers

Ovni sneakers (if you’re French), Grandpa or Dad shoes (if you’re American), or just “those big, ugly sneakers” if you’re from elsewhere in the world...

Ovni sneakers (if you’re French), Grandpa or Dad shoes (if you’re American), or just “those big, ugly sneakers” if you’re from elsewhere in the world have made a huge comeback this past year. The alien-like sneakers you might have scoffed at several years ago are now found on the runways of Balenciaga with their Triple S model and Louis Vuitton with their LV Archelights. Nike is getting in on the action too with the comeback of their Air Max 97s (original pictured below).  

While the sneakers may look like they from another planet, they aren’t without any charm. In addition to their futuristic and modern design, these shoes are just plain comfortable to wear. So it’s no surprise that people have embraced the trend that contrasts so starkly to the simple and classic tennis shoe trend we’ve been seeing lately.

If you’re into the fashion scene, you might already own a pair of these shoes. But they aren’t exactly easy to style, due to their bulky and oversized appearance.

We’ve made it easy for you and found some nice looks to be inspired by. Pair these shoes with some athletic socks, straight pants, a shirt or even a pair of high-waisted “mom jeans” and you’re good to go!

SPORTY CHIC

Models Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid have fallen for the shoes and mixed them with a trench coat and classic blazer.

CASUAL LOOK WITH SHORTS

Fashion bloggers Xenia Adonts and Aimee Song paired the shoes with shorts for a casual daily look.

CASUAL LOOK WITH PANTS

Brazilian model Thassia Naves and fashion blogger Claire Marnette adopted them for a casual yet put together look that you can never go wrong with.

CASUAL CHIC

Pair these sneakers with your semi-formal wear for a more casual, yet classy look. Seen on fashion blogger Laetitia Nimah Kutob.

Are you convinced? Here are some of the best shoes we’ve found, from the original styles to some significantly cheaper alternative options.

Guest blogger Concetta Borli is always talking about shoes and doesn’t have any room in her closet to store all of them! She can’t skip out on this new shoe trend as she can definitely use another 5cm added to her height.

5 Ways To Pull Off The Colorful Plaid Trend

Cher Horowitz approved plaid has taken over this fall. From coats to blouses, pants to skirts, every garment has gotten a serious boost in saturation. Let’s take a look and see how some different fashion bloggers are pulling off this colorful plaid trend!

Don't be afraid to be a little bit extra this fall with a head to toe plaid suit! If you want to be a low-key fashionista at work, you can choose a dark toned plaid like Allison McGevna's suit. But we must say, Kary Cuii really knows what is the hottest plaid pattern this fall and she is pulling it off!

The more colorful the better! Mirella Belle picked blue plaid wide leg trousers for a comfortable and stylish look, when Taylor (live.love.chardonnay) went for a bolder look with yellow plaid trousers.

If your self-described style falls somewhere between sophisticated and casual, try a plaid blazer and mix it with jean trousers or a skirt; it’s suitable for both officewear and street style.

A plaid skirt is perfect for a schoolgirl chic look. Sylvia styled her mixed plaid skirt with a simple striped blouse for her New York Fashion Week look and went for a Gossip Girl vibe. Both these pieces are just perfect for a fall wardrobe! And Gemma’s look is young and cute, especially when styled with a pair of classic Vans.

If you are still holding to your polka dot dress, then it’s time to let it go. Summer is over and the plaid dress is slowly replacing them as a wardrobe must-have!

Here are some similar styles we’ve found right here on Baopals. Make sure you have at least one of them in your wardrobe for this fall!

And of course let’s not forget about the original colorful plaid trendsetter herself…
