NYFW Street Style

Almost as much fun as gushing over the Fall '11 runway wears during New York Fashion Week is seeing the ensembles of all that attend these shows.  From quirky to coiffed it proves to be a no holds bar for street style.   

Olivia Palermo for Tibi lovefest

Yes, it is Valentine's Day and although I should be compelled to post about feelings and all that nonsense I'm incredibly uncomfortable with emotion so I thought I would chat about Olivia Palermo's newest campaign for Tibi.  Olivia was recruited for the Spring '11 web campaign where she dons Tibi garb of her own choosing along with her own personal baubles and accessories in order to style her own looks.  I know that Olivia is lauded for her style, and I myself am a fan, but I'm somewhat skeptical that she styled this entire online campaign herself - you're not fooling me, Olivia.  Nevertheless, I'm absolutely obsessed with the amazing elephant belt and the trench with the fantastically pleated collar.    

this sounds familiar



Olivia Palermo for Spanish Vogue

So the premise of this reality show is to follow a twenty-something woman as she galavants around New York City trying to launch her own clothing line while simultaneously seeking love and juggling strained relationships.  It's called The City.  Oh wait no, it's Olivia Palermo's new reality show - I got confused for a second with another ill-fated series spearheaded by Whitney Port.  I must admit that I do love Miss Palermo's eclectic style, but without the lovably abrasive Kelly Cutrone to make anything interesting I might have to pass on this one.
