OLIVIA'S SPIN ON MENSWEAR

Posted Feb 19 2010 @ 11:57 AM

Socialite and star of "The City" Olivia Palermo was spotted posing for photographers before she took her front row seat at the Tibi Fall 2010 Fashion Show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at The Promenade at Bryant Park on February 16 in NYC, looking polished and pretty as always. Olivia is giving us her spin on menswear chic here, starting with a pair of ultra wide leg trousers (check out Habitual Jeans' Madix Trouser in Gravel for a more tailored look) along with a silky blouse (try Gold Hawk's Beaded Abstract Top in Taupe) and blazer (check out Isabel Lu's Exposed Zipper Jacket in Grey). Accessory wise, who knows what shoes OP's wearing under those wide leg pants of hers, but her huge statement necklace is really an eye-catcher. She completed her look with soft pink makeup and a gold watch (try TKO Orlogi's Venezia Watch in Steel Gold). What are your thoughts on Olivia's look here, readers - do you like it when she steps into the menswear world, or do you prefer her a bit more girlie, like when she stepped out in Manhattan back in September? A fashionista at heart, it's no surprise to see Olivia turning up at so many NYFW shows. The show she's most excited for? "I have Rachel Roy tomorrow, which I'm looking forward to. She's a very dear friend of mine," she says. "I really am loving the colors we're seeing on the runways this year, I really like the grays, the greens [I think I'll be wearing them]." I bet she will!
