Olivia Palermo Designing?
What could possibly be happening?

After reviewing the trailer for the upcoming season of The City, it struck us as kind of odd that Joe Zee of Elle coerced Olivia Palermo into being a 'reporter' for the publication - opting to tell her it would make her more famous.

But, we wondered, what exactly does Olivia want to be famous for? She's already attempted to be an actress - or shall we say someone who darts in front of any camera. She's deemed herself a fashionable girl - taking note of her DvF and Elle stints - and she's now calling herself a jewelry designer, by partnering up with Roberta Freymann for a capsule collection.

In typical Olivia fashion, she boasts about her childhood and receiving her first Roberta Freymann necklace at the young scheming age of 15. It's funny how quickly childhood memories and designer names surface when an opportunity rises.

For the jewelry line, Olivia designed a set of beaded bib necklaces inspired by travel, to oversaturate the industry with. Olivia tells Interview Magazine: "I didn't want to just write regular names on them, there's certain areas of different cities and I wanted to name them after that. One is Mitte, in Berlin; there's a TriBeCa one for New York. There's a Chelsea one for London. I thought it was kind of nice that way because it was a little different."

Classic. Simply classic.
