One of our favorite fashionistas, Olivia Palermo, has been quite busy making the Fashion Week rounds since last week, from New York all the way to London. In fact, just last Monday, the socialite was spotted attending the Mulberry Fall 2012 Runway Show at Claridge’s Hotel in London wearing an effortlessly put together attire that was both eclectic yet interestingly refined.
The brunette beauty sported a star printed tee over textured trousers (both from Mulberry) and capped off her look with an orange blazer, a printed satchel, and a pair of sexy and bejeweled satin covered pumps from Manolo Blahnik.

So what do you think of Olivia’s outfit?
There’s a lot going on (bright on bright, print on texture on print, etc) but she looks fabulous. Using a (casual) printed tee, then wearing it with something unexpected like ultra posh jeweled satin pumps gave her that “dressed down but still luxuriosly stylish” appearance. Who’d have thought such a combination could work?! But it did on her.
If you’re loving Olivia’s unconventional pairing here, try stealing it for less by heading over to Amazon and grabbing the following Mango separates. Then make your next stop at Zappos where you will find the oh-so gorgeous Stuart Weitzman ‘Gloloopy’ pumps. It’s not exactly a cheap alternative, but at least it will save you several hundreds. Plus, this pair is actually just as stunning as Olivia’s Blahniks.
