Fashion Flashback: Olivia Palermo's Statement Studded Look for Less

We're in love with Olivia Palermo's ruffle trench coat, striped top and statement necklace look.
Classic stripes, preppy navy and tan tones, and dramatic jewelry: all the essentials needed to recreate this ensemble from Olivia Palermo's stylish past. In this recreation we've paired a simple Gap tee and navy skirt with a midi trench, grey hobo bag, lace-up heels, retro sunglasses and bold statement accessories. Tried and true, this look from 2009 needs no updating since all of the pieces are timeless essentials that can be worn so many ways. Plus, if you're eager to wear this during the warmer weather, nix the trench coat and swap out the long-sleeve top with a similar tank style, like this LNA Stripe Bib Tank Top ($48). Wear as it is in the fall or spring, and for colder weather add some black tights — voila 1 outfit, 3 ways for 4 seasons! Read on to score these curated pieces starting at just $14...

Mellow Yellow: Olivia Palermo's Distressed Denim and Bright Flats Look for Less

Olivia Palermo Look for Less
When incorporating a pop of color, I love pairing a single piece with a neutral or monochromatic background so it stands out, but isn't too overwhelming — I'm definitely a minimalist at heart. In this ensemble, Olivia Palermo does the same by incorporating bright yellow loafers with distressed skinny jeans, a white off-the-shoulder top, skinny black scarf, black belt, a classic watch and a versatile leather-trimmed canvas clutch. The accessories alone elevate the otherwise simple t-shirt and denim outfit, and our curated finds are on point. Get the look for less with these fab finds that start at just $9.99!
