2 Unexpected Ways Olivia Palermo Plans on Wearing the Pieces From Her New Collaboration
When it comes to fashion, Olivia Palermo takes the "never judge a book by its cover" approach. She amps up basic looks with the help of accessories, is a pro when it comes to layering, and even has some unexpected ways to style her Chelsea28 collaboration.
While chatting with us about the collection, the style star spilled about two very versatile items she included in the lineup: a green military vest and a striped, front-tie tank. Read on to see why these purchases are definitely worth every penny, and then try your hand at our 30-day styling challenge.
The Twill Military Vest
When we aked Olivia what her favorite piece in the collection was, she responded almost instantly. "Probably the twill military vest [$158]," she said. "I love it! I'll probably wear it as a dress at some point, take off the belt, restyle it." A vest as a dress? We love it, too!
The Stripe Poplin Bustier
Another item Olivia would wear unexpectedly? This front-tie tank. "I really do like this when it gets a bit warmer," she told us, holding up the stripe bustier ($78). "It's super sexy, and then if you wanted to, [you could] put a black turtleneck underneath it and layer it. You could do that and add a little bit of the sheer so it’s not so heavy on the fabric."
(And Here's That Sheer Turtleneck She Was Talking About)
The silk-sleeve turtleneck sweater ($78) is perfect for layering!
