职场英语：春天到了，该如何着装

　　Warm weather doesn’t seem like a distant dream anymore. You may already be planning a wardrobe revamp to embrace the season of change and new beginnings.

　　温暖的天气不再遥不可及。为了迎接换季与新春伊始，或许，你已经在计划一次“衣柜大改造”了吧!

　　But if you think the spring will once again be all about floral prints and pastel colors, you’d better hold onto your wallet for a second. The fashion world is gearing up for a major shift in the 2013 spring season and some not-so-spring-like trends will be making the rounds.

　　但如果你认为印花和浅色调会再次成为本季的主题，那么血拼之前你非常好三思而后行。时尚界正在孕育一场2013春季时尚潮流大变革，一些过去与春季绝缘的时尚元素正当红。

　　Black and white

　　黑白配

　　The idea of wearing black and white in spring sounds a bit crazy. Nevertheless, head-to-toe black and white is slated to become a huge trend this spring after being featured on multiple runways, from Alexander Wang to Marc Jacobs. The extreme contrast between black and white has paved the way for a return.

　　虽然在春天穿黑白色听起来有点出格，可不管怎么说，一身从头到脚的黑白装束已然成为本季的一大流行，从亚历山大•王到马克•雅可布等，黑白撞色频频亮相各大秀场，定了黑白配的回归之势。

　　But a black-and-white look doesn’t need to be boring or banal. You could play with different textures, for instance mixing sequins with leather or tweed with lace, to present new takes on this classic combination.

　　但是“黑白配”并不意味着乏味或平庸，你可以在不同的面料上大做文章。例如亮片配皮革，或者花呢配蕾丝，这会令经典的黑白组合给人耳目一新的感觉。

　　Bold stripes

　　粗条纹

　　Stripes are coming back as another replacement for floral patterns, which we often associate with spring. You can spot them in almost every collection major fashion designers are presenting on the runway.

　　过去我们常常在春季选择将印花图案，而本季条纹的回归也为我们提供了另一种尝试。几乎所有重量级设计师的秀场上，你都可以发现条纹元素。

　　The stripes of 2013 are noticeably more prominent than those of past seasons: bigger, longer, stronger, and even more versatile. They come in a large variety of shapes, from horizontal, vertical, and chevron to any contrasting design.

　　相比过去几季，2013年的条纹趋势更为明显：面积更大、条纹更粗、颜色更深，甚至样式也是千变万化。条纹的形状可谓多种多样，从横条纹、竖条纹、人字条纹再到各种对比鲜明的设计元素。
