Closing: 2025 Summer Style Philosophy
"Clothes are no longer uniforms for social roles—they’re canvases for self-narratives."
This season of contradictions demands leather-meets-lace courage, qipaos with laptops, and eco-ethics woven into Y2K romance. True style thrives not in perfect harmony, but in the balance between comfort and conviction.
✨ Your Summer Mantra:
"I wear contrasts, yet I am whole;
I love vintage, but live now;
I chase trends, never follow."
