The news that Banana Republic was teaming up with Milly for a capsule collection (and just in time for Summer!) was music to our ears. Now that we've spotted some familiar faces out and about wearing the line, we're only getting more excited to shop once items hit stores and the web next Thursday, May 30. Zoe Saldana's retro-inspired dress and Olivia Palermo's elephant-print shorts will both be available for purchase (retailing at $150 and $55, respectively), making it easy to copy both summery, office-ready looks.

We don't think we've ever seen Olivia Palermo in an outfit we didn't love — or want to re-create.

We don't think we've ever seen Olivia Palermo in an outfit we didn't love — or want to re-create. We watched The City just to see what she'd wear every week; now we can get our style fix watching her front row at Fashion Weeks around the world, playing dress-up for Oscar de la Renta as the face of the designer's Outnet collection, or strolling the streets of New York City alongside beau Johannes Huebl. In every case, one thing holds true: We pretty much want everything she's wearing. With that in mind, we've put together an Olivia Palermo lookbook — complete with every one of the fashion darling's eclectic, cool, and utterly chic ensembles this year (so far).

Trend Alert: Bright Lipstick in Floral Hues

One runway trend that's making its way to Hollywood is bold, bright lips.

One runway trend that's making its way to Hollywood is bold, bright lips. Last night, the celebrities showed off a garden variety of lipstick shades, including pink, purple, and red. Kat Dennings attended the premiere of Iron Man 3 with hot-pink lips paired with icy silver eye shadow. At the Tribeca Film Festival Chanel Artists Dinner, Taraji P. Henson complemented her blue ensemble with an electric purple lipstick, and Olivia Palermo rocked a blazing red hue at a Rochas event. When it comes to lipstick this season, live by the motto: the brighter the better.

In Love With . . . Olivia Palermo's Zara Heels

While we often find ourselves lusting after celebrity outfits, it's not quite as often that we can actually get our hands on what they're wearing.

While we often find ourselves lusting after celebrity outfits, it's not quite as often that we can actually get our hands on what they're wearing. Enter Olivia Palermo in a pair of Zara's strappy (and under $100!) heels, and we can safely and happily say that getting her look just got a lot easier — at least from the ankles down. The fashion darling made the rounds, bouncing from an NYC film screening to the Louis Vuitton Maison opening in Germany and a Rochas-hosted event in Spain, all with these Zara multi-strap high-heel sandals ($90) as the finishing touch to both her designer and off-the-rack ensembles. With each wear, we're further convinced of their versatility — but with their very accessible price tag, we really don't need any more convincing to take the plunge. Get one step closer to channeling Olivia Palermo's brand of chic when you shop the same killer heels.

Let Olivia Palermo Inspire Your Next Braided Updo

Olivia Palermo usually sticks with a classic blowout, but it's nice to see her try out a fun and easy braided style.

Olivia Palermo usually sticks with a classic blowout, but it's nice to see her try out a fun and easy braided style. When we spotted her french-braided bun at the Pikolinos Gala Dinner last night, we couldn't help but stare. And with temperatures steadily rising, Olivia's dual french braids and twisted bun is an ideal style to try right now.

To get Olivia's look, start off with a texturizing powder, like Alterna's Bamboo Style Texturizing Body Boost ($22), which will give your hair the perfect grip. Part your hair down the center about two inches back, then tease the hair at the crown. French braid the two sides and then connect them in the center, securing with an elastic. Split the ponytail into two sections, tightly twist them, and then wrap them around the base of your ponytail for a woven look. Secure with pins and mist with hair spray.
