Olivia Palermo attends the Stephane Rolland Haute Couture Fall/Winter 2011/2012 show as part of Paris Fashion Week on July 5, 2011 in Paris, France.
Guess what? Olivia says she’s stepping into the blogosphere!
Palermo, in Paris for the couture shows, told WWD that she’ll issue styling tips from her fashionable life on a blog set to launch this summer.
Considering her outfit-building nous, the only surprising aspect of this discreet announcement is that it has taken so long. Whether she’s wearing a floral dress from Zara (as she did yesterday, for Stephane Rolland’s couture show) or a beaded Marchesa dress, Palermo’s way with accessories and high/low fashion mixes make her a style star.
On the other hand, considering that other projects she’s mentioned in the press have failed to materialise (reality show, acting career, clothing range: we’re waiting), we won’t bookmark oliviapalermo.com just yet. But we did check, and it has been registered... so come on, Olivia!

When we first saw these pictures of Olivia Palermo on the front row at the Giambattista Valli couture show in Paris, we naturally assumed she'd be wearing high fashion to match.
But we were pleased to discover that her gorgeous lemon yellow midi dress wasn't straight off a runway - it was in fact a well-disguised high street buy.
The City starlet donned this £46 frock from Topshop to the couture show, teamed with golden lace-up heels, layered statement necklaces, a clear clutch and skinny tan belt.
Go girl!
