Olivia Palermo :Summer Style Essentials

*It’s all about what catches your eye when it comes to different patterns. Play around with mixing big and small prints to see how it works for you, and go from there. I love a great floral or polka dots.

*Summer is a great time to experiment with color as well, so don’t be afraid to go bold.

*Add a statement necklace or earring in a bold color to make your little black dress stand out, I also love a printed or metallic heel with a great skinny jean or miniskirt.

*Smoking flats, a light, flowy dress, and I love a one piece bathing suit, They’re so chic!!!

Olivia Palermo is wearing a citron Tinley Road blouse, Rachel Zoe pleated skirt, and Pour La Victoire sandals.
