No one does Alpine fashion and ski vacations like Olivia Palermo. From the slick hair buns and oversized sunglasses to the ultimate set of skis and the perfect cashmere cardigan, she turns the slopes into a high-fashion moment. As a fashion and beauty entrepreneur, Palermo has conquered the streets of every style capital and most recently, launched her influential blog, Olivia Palermo Group, to guide enthusiasts in discovering their own look. The New York City native, who skis every year in sought-after locations like the ever glamorous town of St. Moritz and picturesque Park City, Utah, shares her favorite winter beauty products and curates an impeccable capsule wardrobe for time on the slopes. Your guide to mastering chic, cozy layers starts here.
