So I wanted to take a break from outfit posts to show you all one of my fashion inspirations. Olivia Palermo has such amazing style. I know that she was always the catty one on The City and yeah I disliked her as much as everyone else while watching it. But even then I was impressed with how put together she always was. In this post, I basically broke down a few of her outfits into their key elements. I believe that to achieve Olivia's style you can start out with these essentials: a great bag, a nice skirt, and cigarette pants (or the Audrey Hepburn pants).
First, a great bag can go a long way. It can make any regular outfit look fabulous and it can last for years if you take care of it. I have to say I am a huge purse lover. Like, how some women love shoes...I love purses. I guess because no matter what size you are a purse will fit. I love that. So needless, to say I am always looking for a greta bag to complement my wardrobe. Olivia, has tons of great bags! Just look below.
Next, skirts are a staple in a girl's closet. Like I said in my old post, which you can read here, I went to a private school and the dress code was that girl's had to wear skirts. I have skirts that date as far back as high school and I still get wear out of them. Olivia also knows how to rock a great skirt. She wears long and short, tight and flowy, and they all look great! Check them out.
Laastly, a nice pair of cigarette pants. While I am no where near Olivia's size I still love a good pair of skinnies. Olivia takes those a step further with the cigarette pant. They not only are skinnie but also stop a bit above the shoe, which I love. I have been on the hunt for a good, cheap pair of cigarette pants. So if you know of a place let me know!
So, how about you? Do you find Olivia's style inspiring? Who is your style inspiration. I'll try to get an outfit post up soon and maybe I'll make these style inspirations a regular thing, I certainly have enough style icons :)
IT'S FRIDAY!! Any plans for the weekend?
Lots of love,
