Fashion And Beauty Influencer Olivia Palermo On Summer Fashion Tips

What are some of your must-have items for summer 2022? Any particular trends you’d like to point out?

I am really enjoying color in neon brights or metallics. My look or outfit may be white or pastel, but an accessory or shoe in a bright color makes it pop.

I know that sunglasses are pretty much a must-have for you. What are your other favorite summertime accessories?

I would definitely agree that sunglasses are a little bit of an obsession. They can finish an outfit and also hide a multitude of sins! This summer, I am loving my beach bags. The Italian brand Le Nine has taken the humble beach bag to another level, and they take you from day to night. Lastly, a great hat — I always struggle, as I have a small head; one size does not fit all. They are hard to pack, so I always have my eyes open wherever we [she and husband Johannes Huebl] are on vacation when checking out the local stores and markets. Over the years, I have tried on many, many hats with not much success.

I can relate, unfortunately. Let’s talk swimsuits: I love the variety of swimsuit styles now, from sexy one-pieces to high-waisted bikini bottoms and even bikini tops with sleeves. What are your favorites?

I agree. The variety of styles that are offered is fantastic, and there is something to flatter every body type. I love a one-piece because you can accessorize it, adding a belt or statement jewelry to dress it up, but I love Melissa Odabash bikinis. They are consistently flattering, come in great colors, hold their shape, and last really well. I am a fan!
