Stepping Out of the City

A few years ago, Olivia Palermo may have been known as just the girl from MTV’s “The City” but that is no longer the case. Palermo has become well-known in the fashion world attending Fashion Week, doing designer collaborations, and being placed on many best-dressed lists. If anyone has watched past episodes of the show, she is not portrayed as the nicest of girls but I have to hand it to her— she has killer style.

Tibi chose Palermo to be featured in their Spring/Summer 2011 campaign that mimics the likes of street style websites like The Sartorialist and Face Hunter. Backdrops were used to make Palermo look like she was in different places like London, Paris, and New York and all the outfits were styled by her.

The reason for my fashion crush (which I have many) is that she doesn’t just stick to one look. She can be photographed chic as can be with her Birkin, skinnies, and a blazer and then the next day at a store opening in an embellished blouse, harem pants, and the most fabulous statement necklace you can imagine.

She recently did her own line of necklaces with Roberta Freymann which was stunning. She is often seen pairing them with crazy printed frocks or a more subdued black leather/white shirt combo. Either way, she gets it right.
