Olivia Palermo at TOPSHOP

Hope everyone had a happy holiday and a great New Years! (I hope you've been drinking lots of water and you've been sleeping that night off) I had a great break off from school and got a lot of work done. Sorry for the late post guys, I haven't had much time for blogging as you can tell. The college process has been draining me, to say the least. But, a last! I have submitted everything! *wipes sweat from brow*

A few weeks ago, Olivia Palermo (formely known from MTV's The City) visited TOPSHOP in Soho to give advice on dressing for parties (which I'm sure you've all went to recently) and to spread word about her latest website. I made sure to take photos of the mannequins she styled, I loved all the looks!

the crowd at TOPSHOP, awaiting Olivia's arrival and hungry for her styling advice

"I think the most important part about all these looks is the versatility and to make it work for other things. That's why I chose seperate pieces and not just a dress"- Olivia Palermo

This is one of the things that I really love about these looks. This advice can apply to anyone, not just fashionistas. But to anyone who wants to expand the options in their closet. I think I, myself, have to follow this advice. I always find myself buying those "MUST-buy pair of heels " (what do I have to go with it?) or that "holycrapit'svintage" jacket (do I even have money left over to but something for it?) and not thinking about the things I need. You can say I'm a bit of an impulse shopper. Well, when I have the money, that is.

Okay, these s'mores were so delicious. Oh, how I wish I had one now...

                                                                     I had a hard time deciding which design to choose...

but I stuck to this one :)
