Olivia's favorite shorts

What i love about Olivia is that she reuses pieces but still manages to create different outfits everytime! One of the things she loves to wear are black shorts. Olivia: "Don’t spend much on trendy pieces. Invest in items that will make your style grow.” I picked out 3 outfits where she's wearing her favorite pair of black shorts, which one do you prefere?

The first outfit is very classic. She's wearing all black items but creates dimension by opting for a sheer blouse. The silver jewellery keeps the outfit fresh.

The second look is a bit more playful. She brings summer into her outfit by wearing the dvf Mala floral blouse and emphasizes the yellow in the blouse with a yellow clutch. The golden jewellery gives the outfit a warm glow. She chose black sandals instead of pumps which adds to the summer feel.

The last look is the most serious one. She looks smart and chic wearing a black and white outfit. Behind the sweet smile you can read the message: "don't mess with this girl".

Who wore it best?

Who can wear a topshop sweater and make it look much more expensive? Yes indeed, Olivia can! And now the difficult part: How to do this? "Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize!" is the correct answer. She manages to look hot in a baggy sweater by wearing black leggings and peep toe heels that show off her red vampy nail polish. Normally I wouldn't recommend mixing two prints, but I think the zebra striped scarfe doesn't harm the outfit. By keeping her make-up simple the bold necklace doesn't seem too much. Or do you think I'm wrong and prefere the more casual way of dressing up by Mary-Kate Olsen?

Mary-Kate wears her topshop sweater with a pair of gladiator sandals, Ray Ban Wayfarer sunglasses and a bright handbag.

What concerns accessorizing, i think Olivia is definitely the one who's gonna win this little battle. ... I mean, what better way to spice up your outfit than with a male model by your side? ;)
Or are you the kind of girl that preferes a rocker boyfriend with an "I just got out of bed" look?

déjà vue

When i saw this outfit, it reminded me a lot of the chanel style. This outfit breaths class and elegance, and gives you a Saint-Tropez kind of feeling. The silhouette is so simple, yet so luxurious. Timeless beauty.

Olivia is a career girl, that's why she wants to look strong and confident. By mixing a no-nonsense polished appearance with a certain elegance, her outfits scream 'sophisticated'. Olivia reinvented the black trouser suit. She gives this conservative outfit a more fashion-forward feeling by adding a sparkling clutch, brooches, and red nail polish.

all-in-one: the jumpsuit!

From short to long, strappless, glamorous silk to humble cotton, Olivia has one in every shape, leg length, and colour: the jumpsuit! When it comes to wearing jumpsuits, Olivia's style is less complicated. She just adds a pair of killer heels and golden jewelry, that's it. Love them or hate them?

50's making a comeback!

The popular cat eye sunglasses style has made its way back onto the fashion scene. Olivia Palermo has been spotted sporting a pair of Tom Ford Anouk sunglasses. The warm colours of her 1950's inspired sunglasses add a more luxurious feeling to this retro look.
