10 Things to learn from Olivia Palermo

Olivia Palermo is one of my favorite it-girls for their impeccable yet original style and attitude. It represents one of the best definitions of the term current it-girl (the original is first applied to Clara Bow in the 20s). It is one of the essential in parades, stars fashion campaigns, is one of the socialites par excellence, and his style is ideal to go for a walk with your dog. What lessons can we learn from Olivia?

· Forget the conventions: Why wear heels everywhere? Olivia usually look dancers and oxfords, and not lose one iota of elegance and femininity.

· Risking: Who dares, wins, and in terms of fashion, even more. Sometimes you have to mix clothes that seemed impossible to bring together, the result is often surprising (for good). Bring several different prints, long shirts under jerseys ... Olivia knows no bounds.

· Be true to your style: Olivia points to many trends (the maxi-necklaces for example), but it would be difficult to see with a grunge look. In short: take only what you like.

· Glowing what best fits you: There are more flattering clothes than others, and that Olivia is very clear. If palazzo pants upset you, better leave. Rarely has taken too flashy makeup, and never has been crazy hairstyles.

· Be discreet: There is nothing worse than going dressed for the sole purpose of attracting attention.

· Adapt the clothes to your figure: One of the regrets of Olivia when reviewing some of her outfits for years is not to carry the clothes fix did not sit perfectly. If you like that dress would look better with shorter low, or that new shirt looks a little wide, go to a dressmaker or a site arrangements (type the Retoucherie).

· Work and work: Olivia Palermo began as an actress in The City, and although the interpretation was not one of his greatest talents, he tried. Then he built a style that has managed to establish over time (it-girls have the expiration date?), Worked as an intern at Quest, signed by a modeling agency, is or has been the face of several firms (Mango, Hogan, Rochas), has a website (although it takes a team of editors full-time) ... Of course, we must recognize that belong to a wealthy family has its advantages. Anyway, Olivia proves that you should never sit still.

· Having a good basic base: Blazers, jeans, little black dresses ... you saved on more than one occasion.

· In the accessories's the difference: You might take a look very basic, but with a nice necklace or a pair of sunglasses elegant styling can become perfect.

· Smiling: It sounds cliché, but one of the qualities of Olivia Palermo is his kindness, which I have seen in person. Even his publicist is attentive and friendly. It costs nothing ...
