We’re not going to come down too much harder on Olivia for not prepping enough for her latest Elle assigment. After all, it’s not easy to look this good. It takes countless trials and errors, great attention to detail and plenty of mirror time.
So while the results of Olivia’s blogger interviews came up short, her classy interviewer ensemble did not disappoint. The piece that brings it all together? Her Alexis Bittar chunky gold link necklace.
Ready to steal Olivia’s coveted style? Pair this Alexis Bittar Link Necklace similar to Olivia’s with a Zara Jacket, Zara Shorts and one pair of really elusive Top Shop heels. And hey - even if you don’t nail the interview, at least you will look the part.

Hi SeenON! In that same scene in the last episode of The City (with Erin’s blue tank and skirt), what dress is Olivia wearing? The dress that Joe Zee complimented? Thanks! - Carrie
Nice spotting, Carrie. Who wouldn’t want a piece of Joe Zee-approved attire? Unfortunately, Olivia’s long floral dress is vintage Urban Outfitters and no longer available online.
The good news? You can still steal Olivia’s style from this episode by layering this Surplice Floral Print Dress under a Reiss jacket and Steve Madden shoes just like Olivia. Add a Topshop vintage necklace and you’re ready to hit the offices of Elle.

We’re looking forward to the return of MTV’s The City more than ever. That’s because this season it’s out with the old and in with the new! That’s right. New lives, new jobs, new friends and new frenemies… for both Whitney and Olivia.
According to MTV, while Olivia will be stirring up drama at Elle magazine, Whitney has ditched DVF to rejoin forces with Kelly Cutrone. Along with Whit’s old friend Samantha from last season, expect to see Roxy Olin (Whitney’s former friend from L.A.) and Sam’s new pal Freddy in her circle of aquaintances.
And for the fans of Erin, Jay, Adam and Allie? Sorry to say, but they are no longer on the show!
Check out the preview clip above for a sneak peek at what’s to come. And shop the best of The City here.
From uncomfortable workplace confrontations to unrequited love proposals, the “I Lost Myself in Us” season finale episode of The City was certainly full of dramatic surprises. But it was also full of delicious fashion (we’ve come to expect nothing less from the likes of this glamorous group).
While you may have been caught up in yelling at your TV during Olivia’s relentless lecture to Whitney about keeping personal life out of the workplace, chances are you couldn’t help but quell your excitement to appreciate her Pazza Sweater in Red & White from Diane Von Furstenberg.
With so much taste in its chic tailored fit and bold red and white candy stripes, it’s no wonder DVF ultimately chose Olivia to be its London contact (sorry Whit).

OK, so I have a little love-hate thing going on with Olivia on The City. At the beginning of the season, she seemed like she was truly trying to help Whitney navigate her way through the Big Apple. Now, all she seems to want to do is throw our girl under the bus - not nice! Anyway, I was so sucked into the drama that I almost missed the cute printed DVF dress Olivia had on during the party. (You know I must be distracted when I forget about shopping - eek!) Take a peek:
I feel a little guilty for always loving Olivia’s clothes, especially when her attitude leaves a lot to be desired. But I’m getting over it - especially because I need something fabulous to wear to reward myself for all the working out I’ve been doing … click here to see me action!
Be tempted by all the great looks from The City here, and click here for more about me and my friends here: Only in a Woman’s World.
P.S. Spoiler Alert - Next week’s episode is bound to be tense as Whitney and Jay BREAK UP! My advice – invite over some pals and stock up on the goodies and alleviate the stress with a little snacking.

Hold up - stop everything! Are our eyes and ears deceiving us or did Olivia really just go into that DVF global communications meeting totally unprepared? She may have flopped when it came to her formal presentation on handbags, but if there’s one thing she got right, it’s this Marla Bis Top in Posey that she wore at the beginning of the “I’m Sorry Whit” episode of The City.
Wear like Olivia and layer this silk blouse under a black vest to punch up the formality. It’s a classy piece that will keep you looking graceful and poised even when you’re trembling inside - right, Olivia?
