Look of the Week: Olivia Palermo
We are one of Olivia’s biggest admirers and it seems she is one of ours too! The it girl has been snapped more than a half-dozen times wearing Lulu Frost pieces, namely the 100 Year Necklace shown above. We love how the starlet dresses it both up and down, especially in this pic with a striped sweater and fur vest. What would you wear a 100 Year Necklace with?
