Inspired by Olivia Palermo...




♥


She grew up on the Upper East Side, has a designer mother and dates a socialite boyfriend — Olivia Palermo, former cast member of The City, is the real-life version of the style-savvy Blair Waldorf.

For an Olivia-approved look, here are some similar pieces you can work into your wardrobe without breaking the bank. Who knows? The downtown sidewalk might as well be your Fifth Avenue stomping grounds. xoxo
