I actually don’t hate this look, but Olivia has it all wrong. The fit isn’t perfect, so she looks really boxy in this structured dress. Also, the hair is awful, so that takes away a lot from the look. A cool dress worn in an average manner makes for a mediocre look.

This look is soooo busy, what was Olivia thinking exactly? Three patterns, super contrasting bag and disastrous hair does not a good grade make!

While Palermo covered Tatlerwith grace, Whitney kinda pulled a Rachel Uchitel-ish move, shedding her innocent layers for a spread in Maxim’s January issue. Inside the pages, she poses in sexy lingerie and heats things up, however we’ll be the first to admit her body is banging! The accompanying interview (yes, apparently these images are set next to actual words) has Whit opening up about not being the most attractive girl around in her youth, saying “I was the ugly duckling as a baby and a toddler”. Well she’s certainly blossomed into a swan- sporting styles from a polka-dot bustier to a deep violet negligee, and she just may be interested in working for Victoria’s Secret, saying, “I’d consider it.” Really Whitney? We gotta say though, if we stripped down for a shoot, we’d hope to at least score the cover. (Refinery 29)

Out of all the cheesy youtube “how to” videos on make up this is the easiest and best way to get Palermo makeup right on Olivia Palermo Makeup

Lea Michele (#5), Kristin Stewart (#7) Taylor Swift (#8) and Olivia Palermo (#9) somehow all made the top 10. I know this is Teen Vogue, but let’s raise the bar a little and maybe swap ‘em out for Emma Watson (#16), Keira Knightley (#20), Chloë Sevigny (#18) and Freida Pinto (#21).

Though I will say that I am glad that Kelly Osborune (#25) made the list. She’s really come into her own style, plus I love her with Joan Rivers on E!’s Fashion Police. If only they would get rid of that damned orange skeleton, Giuliana Rancic.

Meanwhile, three out of four Gossip Girls made the top 50: Leighton Meester (#19) and Jessica Szohr (#32), however (non-teen) Vogue‘s Best Dressed cover girl Blake Lively has to settle for #23. Anna‘s other Angels, Anne Hathaway (#49) and Sienna Miler (who is apparently still considered a celebrity) bring up the rear.

Take a gander at the full list:

1. Alexa Chung

2. Emma Roberts

3. Carey Mulligan

4. Kate Bosworth

5. Lea Michele

6. Camilla Belle

7. Kristin Stewart

8. Taylor Swift

I spy Olivia Palermo, Alber Elbaz, and Kanye West… now the question is who’s the sassy little frassy of the honorees!! I totally think its Palermo, obviously.

“As of right now it doesn’t really look like we’re doing it anymore,” said the 25-year-old fashion designer. When asked if it could possibly move from MTV to another network, Port said, “No, at this point it’s not.”

I love the city- just not MTV’s The City… it was definitely a whole season of my life I will never get back.. might be a bit on the dramatic side but what do you expect- you know it makes your gossip way more exciting… at least everyone is far more fond of Kelly Cutrone and DVF now?!….

Plus it must be said that the true fashionista on this show was my favorite Olivia Palermo and her Blair Waldorf inspired style!.. who cares if everyone was a bit on the negative side about her office skills who needs them when you have killer outfits.

Who knows maybe The City is canceled because Olivia is getting her own show… hey, it could happen!

The Olivia Palermo Vs. Blair Waldorf Youtube video is so exciting! How could you not love such a glamourous prepster!!  Thoughts?

I’m guessing the Brits must really love The City. Olivia Palermo. Girl of the Year…

Thoughts? Should Whitney be pissed…

The overrated MTV reality shows that give fashion careers a twisted reputation like The City introduced us to native New Yorker and most loved queen bee Olivia Palermo, with her amazing nonchalant style, model-esque ways, and of course you could never forget to include my favorite title, the bitch of all bitchismz. but just like any other fashion muse of today Olivia Palermo has taken a stand and has designed a jewlery line which is now available online . You may or may not agree with me but personally I would image such an epitome of a classy woman to name her line something other than “ROBERTA” a bit boring and manly. Aside from all the negativity, the perks of such a bizarre line if you’re a member of the “noir universe” or anything along the lines of unpretenious, your everyday wardrobe consists of a plain tee, or a simple black mko-inspired dress, then including one of these “sculptures” to your ‘drobe can add wonders to an amazing night’s outfit. Besides titles such as “Roberta” the love of the city for Palermo has motivated her to name her other works names that represent parts of Manhattan, such as Chelsea, Tribeca, and everything in between… Who knew working as a fake accesories editor at Elle Magazine for a few seasons with such characters like Joe Zee, could actually lead you to designing your very own jewlery line… no punn intended, promise.

The after show was kind of disappointing also. I wish the hosts would have asked more questions, but Lauren Conrad was there and that is all I needed. The other Indies are always laughing at me because I was addicted to the show, but I’m not ashamed to say that I love those girls!  They represented the American dream to me. When I was a student in France, their work in the fashion industry and great lives full of drama inspired me. Luck for me, The City might have another season, and I can’t wait to see what’s going on next for Whitney and Olivia. Since I am a raging fanatic, I hope that Lauren Conrad will make an appearance on an episode.

STEPHANIE Pratt is heading to New York — according to a new report.

Insiders say The Hills star is bound for the Big Apple so she can join MTV reality show The City.

Stephanie — the sister of psycho Spencer Pratt — has been talking to producers of the show, which stars Whitney Port and Olivia Palermo, reports New York Post gossip column Page Six.

“Now that The Hills is over, Stephanie has been talking about moving to New York for The City,” a source said.

“There would be a lot of drama there because her ex-best friend, Roxy Olin, is a regular on the show — and there’s bad blood because Roxy just dropped Stephanie for Whitney Port.”

this makes sense. Maybe it will follow her starting her handbag line.

At Whitney’s Rue La La shoot at Milk studio’s .. Erin breaks the news that Olivia is not going to show up and do the interview with her for Elle.com as promised because of her lack of interest in the line. In conclusion, Olivia is the most thick headed idiot to disobey a job from the magazine she works at.

While they were shooting Whitney’s lookbook, Olivia, of course, went to go see her designer friend instead and “check out” her line because she has control of what goes on Elle.com…Right?!

Back at the Whitney Eve shoot, Kelly is not impressed and blabs about how Olivia is going “down and how she is “dead”. Wait.. Did the city just turn into Kell On Earth?

Back at the Elle offices, Olivia bitches (she’s wearing Balmain) to Erin on how it wasn’t her fault on why she didn’t go to the shoot, it was all “miss-communication”.

Erin is not amused and makes a face that screams ‘this incompetent child should be fired immediately “.

Roxy goes on a date with a Tyson Ritter look a like and talks about how it’s so cold in New York during the winter. Really? Cold in the winter! Shocker!

Finally Joe Zee sits down with Olivia and tells her how unprofessional she was and that he is the boss around here. He even admits he’s sick of her games and if she pulls another stunt, she’s gone!

Erin watches the footage from Olivia’s Elle.com video that as you can see did not make the cut.

Whitney asks for advice from Kelly and in true Cutrone fashion, she shouts “she is a bitch, she is professionally dangerous to you! Your not gonna be the blond girl from LA! You know where nice people end up? On wellfare!”

Olivia and Whitney meet up for a lunch at Fig and Olive, but they don’t seem to be eating anything normal. Eventually they ate…a plate of bitchy!

Surprisingly, Whitney went off on Olivia and called her childish, a bitch and unprofessional. Palermo was at a loss for words at the end just got up at left! Olivia got what she deserved.

Stay tuned for next weeks recap!

Victoria Beckham and the girl from The City, Olivia Palermo, are facing off this week in this Julian J Smith dress. I prefer Beckham’s styling choices over Olivia’s. Olivia’s outfit has far too much going on—and none of it really goes together. Who do you feel wore the dress the best?

Last night, we were  lucky enough to get to shop the Zac Posen for Target collection hours before the pop up shop opened to the public at 11pm. We expected a frenzy, girls fighting over the pieces, but were surprised to find racks full of dresses, tops, and even swimwear…there was even a dressing room section.

I grabbed almost every piece, but was upset when many of the items didn’t fit my boobs. I settled on two dresses, crossing my fingers as I tried them on in hopes that they would fit. The pink tiger print dress was my first choice, a definite must have from the collection. The long gown fit perfectly, even though I had to get it one size up, and I thought that $75 was a small price to pay for a piece of Zac Posen.

We unfortunately had to leave, and missed all the celebs, running into only Olivia Palermo on our way out. But overall, I couldn’t be happier with my purchases. Still contemplating buying a few more pieces when the collection hits Target.com on April 25th.

PS: The pop up shop is open until 11pm tonight at 34th and 8th.

Last night we partied hearty with the stars of The City, Elle Creative Director Joe Zee and everyone’s favorite New York City social, Tinsley Mortimer. Held at the GUESS by Marciano store in Soho the event was packed to the walls with a cache of Bravo and MTV reality stars. No Jersey Shorian’s, but give it a week and I’m sure we’ll be seeing a lot more of the tanners at Fashion Week. Scary thought, but true.

Really psyched I got to meet Joe Zee. Major stalker of his tweets so it was definitely a cool opportunity.

This was the big Twilight weekend across the nation, and with sales reaching $140 million over the weekend, the Twilight “crew” had more than enough reasons to party.D&G sponsored the Twilight party (which was held at The Box) that brought out some of New York’s finest including models, musical artists, socials, and of course actors.

Some expeditions are so rare and fantastic that they merit a huge celebration forty years later—as was the case for last night’s Louis Vuitton party honoring Buzz Aldrin (above left) and the first successful voyage of man onto the moon. My own expedition—across the park to the Upper West Side to the Museum of Natural History—was decidedly less buzz-worthy, but I can almost guarantee my destination was more fashionable than Neil Armstrong’s forty years ago.

Because Louis Vuitton is one of the few luxury brands surviving—and thriving—during the recession, it is to be expected that they throw over-the-top, lavish parties that compete with the bacchanals of ancient Rome—after all, who’s left to do it?

I arrived early and the atmosphere outside was unexpectedly calm—no ravenous party crashers frothing at the mouth for their free Moët. Usually I walk the step-and-repeats, but I took one look at the gigantic carpet with a cluster of video crews at the end and decided to pass. I imagined later that it would have been one small step for me, and one giant rattling of my fragile nerves.

Downstairs was still mostly empty and so the full selection of hors d’oeuvres could be enjoyed without the terrible despair that ensues after you trail one of those handsome cater waiters, only to find that their silver platter has been pillaged. Food, however, lost all value when I spotted Bill Cunningham in his signature blue windbreaker, darting rapidly around the room with his camera like a lone ranger. I positioned myself strategically and waited. Sure enough, my outfit was blessed with Mr. Cunningham’s approval in the form of a few camera flashes and I quietly checked off another achieved goal on the running list I keep in my mind.

The first celebrity I spotted was Cassie—immediately recognizable by her half-shaved head, which on one side makes her look like a glamorous goddess and on the other, like a Thai lady-boy. I assumed from the star shape etched into Cassie’s bald side that she was she was celebrating the celestial occasion in her own special way.

Shortly after, Whitney Port arrived. Almost immediately, a steady stream of strangers approached Whitney—all wanting a piece of the reality star. I was guilty of this as well—but at least I was fabulously dressed, so it was excusable in my mind. I went up to the delightful Ms. Port, who’s bubbly and beautiful in person. I asked if she ever had dreams of being an astronaut while growing up.

“You know, I think everyone somehow thinks in one way or another that being an astronaut is so whimsical and amazing, but I don’t know, after fourth grade, learning about the whole solar system and doing a report on Venus, I was fine just settling with that.”

I couldn’t bait her on what she’d do if she were locked in a space shuttle with her City

co-star, Olivia Palermo. “I’d make it work,” she said. “I’m not like that; I’m not territorial.”

The most interesting interaction that night I had observed was not Buzz with the president of Louis Vuitton North America on the grand staircase, but rather between Whitney and Jessica Szhor (Gossip Girl) when the latter had arrived. Despite having ostensibly never met before, Jessica made her way over to Whitney and introduced herself. It made me wonder whether the famous share some sort of supernatural bond with one another.

Jessica was wearing Louis Vuitton Fall 2009 shoes—the ones with the sky-high crazy heel that looks like an hourglass—and that, come to think of it, wouldn’t look out of place as moon shoes. I posed the same question to her.

“I think I was always a little bit too scared of what would happen, but I think it would be amazing to go to the moon and that’s the one place I’d want to go to that’s crazy and far away because people have made it back.”

“If you could go to the moon, who would you take with you?” I asked her. “My mamacita!” she cooed.

She definitely isn’t my favorite person, but I love the simplicity of this outfit, and that blouse is awesome.
