Interview with Olivia Palermo

What is the most original gift you have ever received?
Original and practical, a set of Tiffany stationery with a wax seal with my initials to stamp was an elegant and thoughtful gift.

What would be top of your Gift-Library lust list?
The Katherine Pooley Moon Perfume bottle - it reminds me of the 1920's Art Deco perfume decanters that women would display on their vanities. It makes me dream of having a mirrored console filled with amazing scents.

Who are your favourite designers?
I love everyone such as classic designers Valentino and Diane von Furstenberg for their consistent look over the years, while I find inspiration in the modernity of younger designers such as Marchesa and Giambattista Valli .

How would you define your style?
Street meets chic: it's all about wearing clothes that look good and you wear. I think so many people get caught up in the trends and forget that they are wearing the clothes, not the other way around.

You are involved with many charities, which are closest to your heart?
New Yorker's for Children and Operation Smile are causes dear to me because they both allow me to give back to the community. Having grown up with so much I feel it is our duty to be able to help others.

You've previously said you love London, what do you like about London style and what would be your top fashion tip for Londoners?
I love the fact that everyone in London is expressive through their clothes in different styles. Some might argue that New Yorkers are chic, but they are chic in a similar way with minimal differences. In London, you can walk down the same street and see someone wearing an outrageous outfit such as pattern on pattern or a bright neon look paired with a contrasting neon - it just makes sense.

How and where are you spending the summer?
I hope to spend some quality time with Johannes in Europe maybe St Barts, as well as weekend getaways to Nantucket and the Hamptons.

Olivia Palermo Debuts The Stuart Weitzman Young Hollywood Cares Collection @ “The Smurfs” World Premiere

Olivia Palermo is a real film buff, because she never misses a New York Premiere.
She attended “The Smurfs” World Premiere at the Ziegfeld Theater last night wearing an effortless summer ensemble.
The look included a beige sheer off-the-shoulder nude blouse with tie detailed sleeves with an ivory maxi tiered skirt. Maxi skirts are becoming a signature red carpet look for Olivia.
Her accessories were toned down once again, because on this occasion she only added a white Lila belt and tan Lacey clutch both from Reiss.
She was wearing Stuart Weitzman sandals which she co-designed.
The navy satin ankle-wrap sandals embedded with fuchsia feathers is part of the “Stuart Weitzman Young Hollywood Cares Collection.”
All proceeds will benefit Dr. Marsha Moses’ pioneering research in ovarian cancer at the Folkman Institute in Boston, MA.
The “Stuart Weitzman Young Hollywood Cares” collection will also feature other co-designs by Hollywood’s young trend-setters.
