Basic Black

With cool weather moving in, we want to stay warm but look stylish at the same time. From day to night, you can never go wrong with a classic black outfit, that is if you play it by the rules. It's important to vary textures, and pay more attention to the details.

Let's spy on Olivia, the master of mixing up different textures. Olivia shows us how to make an all black outfit interesting and chic. She makes this timeless style rock, at every occasion: it looks professional at work, comfortable during shopping, and stylish at a dinner. Most of the time, she goes for gold jewelry. To add even more glamour, she wears sunglasses or a (faux) fur scarf with it.



At night, Olivia likes to put on a timeless black dress. She injects a pop of color into her outfit through the accessories. The all black outfit really draws attention to spectacular shoes or an amazing clutch. At a gala event, she keeps all the eyes on the dress by pulling her hair back, and to add a bit of mystery she wears a smokey eye.


Please tell me what your favorite day or night-time outfit is!

  14. Brilliant! Black is always in and a must for colder weather.

    On another note, I was wondering can anyone identify this vest she wore here? http://outfitidentifier.com/?p=18597
    I saw it in Olivia Palermo Hearts NYC video and fell in love with her entire outfit. I know her leather pants are Darryl K and the sweater and shoes are Topshop but anyone know about the vest? Is it Zara, Topshop, etc? I hope someone can help out, please?

    Anyways thank you for continuing to update this blog I really enjoy seeing your posts and am so thankful you continue to update it even though we don't see her on tv anymore. :)
