{magazine cover} Olivia Palermo Covers InStyle UK October 2012
Socialite Olivia Palermo covers the October issue of InStyle UK. Olivia strikes a pose in everything from Dolce & Gabbana's tapestry shifts to silk dresses from Christian Dior, and Alexander McQueen's breathtaking bouquet skirts.
Some highlights from the interview are as follows:
On not wanting to be compared to Kim Kardashian:
"Whatever she's done, it's worked, but I do things differently. I'm in fashion. I'm in New York. I'm in London. And I'm in the rest of Europe. She's LA… Our careers are very different."
Revealing all about her style and jet-set lifestyle:
"I like walking out of the house feeling fully pulled together. It doesn’t matter if there’s someone standing outside my apartment or not. I couldn’t care less. I like getting dressed for me and not them.”
On her floral themed photo shoot
: "This season you're definitely seeing floral back in trend. Not only have we seen it on the spring runways but we're also seeing it in fall which is nice which is nice and refreshing." Read the full interview in the October issue of instyle.co.uk.

{editorial} Pamella DeVos Fendi Baguette Collection
“I just bought three more! They’re limited editions, I was waiting for them, and they came today. One is yellow and beaded, one has mirrors on it, and one is black and ivory,” says Pamella DeVos rapturously, describing the latest additions to her stupendous array of Fendi Baguettes.
Some collections are built and developed in deliberate, almost academic ways; others are born accidentally from a joyous-bordering-on-nutty enthusiasm. DeVos, a fashion designer under the name Pamella Roland, whose gowns have been worn by everyone from Mira Sorvino to Jennifer Hudson, says she didn’t realize she had 72 baguettes until she counted them for this reporter. “I was kind of surprised myself at the number,” she confesses. “Actually I have 75 now.”
Though she and her baguettes live mainly in Grand Rapids, Mich., she bought her first one 14 years ago in New York City; her showroom is near the Fendi store on Fifth Avenue, and she rarely let a week go by without stopping by to check for new arrivals. She was not alone: since they were introduced in 1997, the Fendi Baguette has developed a cultlike following, not least because they were first seen by most of America dangling from the wrist of Carrie Bradshaw. (In one notable “Sex and the City” episode, Carrie shouts at a thief who is robbing her: “It’s not a bag, it’s a baguette!”) The purses are now the subject of an exhaustive Rizzoli-published retrospective, so massive it seems to weigh as much as 1,000 baguettes.
