She’s been pulling out all the stops with her sartorial choices this fashion week.

At the Elie Saab runway presentation during Paris Fashion Week, Olivia Palermo showed off her edgy side in a pair of black culottes and a $4,955 crystal-embroidered crepe jacket from the Lebanese fashion designer’s Pre-Fall 2022 collection.

She bundled up in style as she layered a black-and-white striped turtleneck top and a blue shirt designed with crystal flower buttons underneath her sparkling outerwear.

As for her footwear, Olivia wore one of her go-to pairs during the pandemic—the Gianvito Rossi “Martis” boots.

While pairing culottes with knee-high boots seems like a quirky combination, Olivia managed to pull them off, proving she’s the ultimate style icon.

These boots from the popular women’s shoe designer are made in Italy from butter-smooth leather and feature elasticated ribbed panels and rubber lug soles.

Letting her outfit take center stage, Johannes Huebl’s wife kept her accessories very minimal with just a ring and her Lulu Guinness silver mirror perspex lips clutch.

She then pulled her tresses back into a center-parted sleek bun and wore dramatic vampy eye makeup with bold smokey eyeshadow.

Last week, the Palermo Beauty founder again brought an edge to Paris Fashion Week as she paired her favorite combat boots with a plaid short suit.

She opted for a Clueless-inspired look, wearing Dior’s Fall 2022 yellow-and-black plaid jacket and matching wide-leg culottes cut right on her knees.

Keeping herself warm but stylish, Olivia added a punch of hot pink turtleneck and a knitted black top underneath her striking tartan blazer from the French luxury fashion house.

She then continued with her bold look by wearing dark smokey eye-makeup and brushed up brows and styling her tresses in loose waves flowing over her shoulders.

There is nothing worse than walking into a high-profile party, only to see someone else wearing the same thing as you.

In Olivia Palermo’s case, the accidental twinning was more bearable because the twin happened to be a friend of hers, and the plus is that they only twinned clutches.
