Today we’re featuring Olivia Palermo simply because we love this lady’s taste in fashion. We love how she mixes pieces together, always unexpected and yet always chic. The socialite and “The City” star was spotted at the front row of Tibi’s Spring 2011 presentation the other week looking like this:

What do you think? Don’t you just love her eclectic style? Who’d have thought that suede (boots), embroidery (navy dress), and a tan embossed croc (clutch) could look good together?

The dress is by Tibi and the boots are by Proenza Schouler. You can buy the dress at Shopbop and the boots from Zappos or MyTheresa. As for the purse, it’s an Hermes clutch; and we all know THAT one is not only hard to find but also very expensive, probably even more expensive than the dress and the shoes. If you can afford it, feel free to visit the Hermes boutique in your area.

Tibi Byzantine Embroidery Dress, US$690 (Shopbop); Proenza Schouler Suede Boots, US$799 (Zappos)

Or, you can simply just grab the look for a lot less with the following:

Gryphon Mercury Embroidered Silk Dress, US$234 (was US$390 at Norsdtrom); GUESS Owens Ankle Boots, US$139 (Endless)

And instead of a tan croc embossed clutch, go for a woven purse to achieve that texture. Try this one from Dan W:
