How to best wear the maxi length?? Turn to  style princess Olivia herself…she is THE proof that even (or especially) petite girls can rock this trend!!

Follow Olivia’s lead and style the maxi skirt/dress with a belt, leather jacket or fur and a hat for a laidback, yet polished style!

I’m also totally into the Mango dress, which Olivia is wearing in this editorial of Spanish magazine Hola:

And voila my personal version of how to do the maxi length:

Start with a  maxi dress in a cool print, like this great Sandro dress (1), which I treated myself to during Paris Fashion Week…

and style it with these accessories:

2. Maje wedge Galoche en noir.

3. Aurelie Bidermann cotton-lace ring (via net-a-porter)

4. O.P.I Texas range nail polish Guy meets Gal-veston in the new sheer version (the coolest way to wear your nail polish this summer!!)

5. Maje black suede leather jacket Exit.

6. Vintage Chanel bag in a bright color, like this Cobald blue pouch bag (via Resurrection)

She might seem like a total bitch in MTV’s the city, but Olivia has the most awesome style and is a huge Les Coupines’ fashion darling! Now she is on the cover of ASOS Magazine and once again wins us over with her unique sense of style.

I especially love how she brings in less polished pieces like the Barbour jacket, Converse chucks and some pretty cool hats and mixes them with chic and ladylike staples.

Check out more pics and the behind the scenes video:

and voila the video, where Olivia comes across as an incredibly sweet and fun girl…

Olivia Palermo attending the Markus Lupfer presentation at Soho House Berlin today.

Actually Olivia is real petite. I didn’t even recognize her at first sight when she walked into the lobby of Soho House. She was wearing this white draped dress which she tucked into a Markus Lupfer fringy skirt and belted it with a signature silk scarf. Oh and she was standing on her toes the entire time for the pictures:-). So cute!

It was a really hot day in Berlin and I wonder how she managed to look so fresh! I’d love to see a make-up tutorial of Olivia Palermo – her complexion was really flawless and evenly tanned.

UK based designer Markus Lupfer and Olivia Palermo posing for the photographers. By the way his collections are really great! I hope to see more of him over here.

Now off for an iced caffe latte!

1. The Yves Saint Laurent Muse 2 in BLUE!!! By far my biggest regret and top of that my colleague has it! So I am basically tortured everyday…

2. The Marni wedges from F/W 2007 are still incredibly hot. I found them in a bronze patent leather version but finally decided it just wasn’t the same thing…Lucky Jane!

3. The Prada belt from the F/W 2009 runway show is just too perfect for any kind of belted outfit (dress, cardi, coat, ANYTHING!). Black is still available but I want brown. Of course…

4. Givenchy sandals from like 4 seasons ago. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these ever since I saw the most stylish girl on earth in them (on the street in London). Sigh!

5. And another Prada regret! Great shape, great color, great bag! Even without the Sienna-Miller-crazyness…

6. The perfect color that just sold out too quickly for me (working class with a 9-to-6 job u know…). Now I am running around with OPI’s “over-the-taupe” which is just not the same. Trust Darea, the nailpolish detector!

7. Chanel 2.55 in grey vintage leather. Leaves me speechless everytime I see it somewhere (not often as this is a rare beauty!). I didn’t have that kind of money at the time though…

8. Isabel Marant leo print silk skirt – I still love u baby! But our time will come. I know u are in the mytheresa sale stock SOMEWHERE!

9. Dior vintage sunnies – these are not the exact same ones! But they come close…I had seen mine in Corso Como 10 back in the good old Milan days. Reminiscing!

10. Last but not least (and this one hurts badly cause it was even on SALE!): the Zara sequined blazer that style goddess & queen of mix & match Olivia Palermo wore out to every single event around NYC last year. Ouch!

Greetings from the “smart shopper”. Ha ha!

P.S.: No regrets ;-)!
