Olivia Palermo
- Thread starter thefrancofille

Just got my asos magazine in the post, she looks amaaaaazing in it. The clothes are slightly different from her normal look but not too much - it's a good mix, she looks like herself but it's a slightly younger, more 'London' look which is more asos. Her face is incroyable. Just gorgeous.
When I said that I don't like her in the city, it's not the bitchiness that I have a problem with (that's the role she's being made to play). It's her general inability to say a sentence without making grammatical errors, tripping over her own tongue or just sounding a little bit stupid. But nobody on that show is a rocket scientist. I guess it's more glaring with her because she looks soo sophisticated compared to the other girls, but still doesn't ever say anything intelligent. Did she go to a good college? I assume so because she seems like she's from a well-off background where that would be a given.
I have this weird love/hate relationship with Olivia, I adore looking at her and some of her outfits and can't help being drawn in by her gorgeousness. But I don't find her charismatic at all when I hear her talk and I hate her ugly bib necklaces. Ah, it's so confusing!

Totally agree with your post. I also find myself wrestling with the love/hate relationship with her onscreen persona. I find that she has exquisite taste and carries herself well - when she's not talking. But, once she's talking I find her to be rather nervous and uncomfortable. She stumbles over her own words and oftentimes seems very awkward. I agree that that the awkwardness seems even more pronounced because she looks so elegant and one just assumes that she would be so well-spoken and poised.
The mystery remains as to how much of the City Olivia is the real Olivia. As in "real" life, people are multi-faceted. One person can be sweet to certain people and that same person can be thoroughly nasty to others. So, it all depends on context. In interviews, when asked about certain scenes where she comes across as bitchy -- she never really denied her behavior she just explained it away in a manner which sounded scripted and inauthentic.

Really awesome at asos, i´m even ready to buy this whole outfit with the hat, dress and boots. So great.
i am suprised how good she looks - i mean , she looks lovely on candids or some events but usually her shoots are quite boring and same pose-wise. Here the stylist and photographer really make her comfy and pushed her to make someting different which is nice to see. Plus i love most of the styling - the clothes etc.
She looks amazinggggggggggggggg 
in the Asos shoot. My only complaint is that i find the ankle boots (re)worn in the picture where she's facing the camera and wearing a gorgeous dress and the converse (worn with the white dress) look soooo big on her. I'm not sure if it's cause she's so petite and esp. with the converse, but I find it distracting. I could totally be on my own on this one though lol!

I'm not surprised. I've read that she used to play basketball and other sports when she was in high school.
