Olivia Palermo always amazes us with her effortless feminine-chic style that’s just truly her own.

You will never catch the 27-year-old socialite looking drab, and since it’s New York Fashion Week, it’s no surprise that she brought her A-game to the various fashion shows she attended.

A perfect example of her very well-put-together style was when she showed up at the Carolina Herrera Spring/Summer 2014 show wearing a prim and proper ensemble consisting of a CH by Carolina Herrera dress over a Giorgio Armani blouse.

This conservative preppy look reminds us of Leighton Meester’s days as the beloved Blair Waldorf on Gossip Girl. Do you see it as well?

Olivia nailed the whole look down to the small details, such as her Giuseppe Zanotti slim belt and Reiss envelope clutch bag.

This oversized envelope clutch bag added a more preppy, scholarly appeal to her ensemble, which also included a pair of striped black-and-white statement heels.
