Fast Five with Jerseylicious' Olivia
Season five of Jerseylicious premieres tonight, January 28! Get prepped for the big night by catching up with Olivia in her Fast Five.
Season 5 Sneak Peak: Styling and setting up photo shoots for The Glamour Prep book was such a blast for me. It was definitely a challenge to not only style everyone else but myself as well. I was constantly running around and doing 30 things at once, but it was totally worth it because I had so much fun.
Favorite Fashion Trend for 2013: I've been embracing the '90s grunge look. I like that the style is repeating itself with plaid, flannel and combat boots. It reminds me of my childhood and how it was less drama. I love '90s style and that whole Clueless look. They just don't make teen movies like the '90s. 'The 80s too, but the '90s were just the s--t.
Childhood crush: My two crushes were Jordan Catalano from My-So Called Life and Trent Lane, Jane's brother, from Daria. I wanted Jordan Catalano so badly, and I actually just bought the whole DVD box series of Daria!
Best Secret Spots in Jersey: Tropicana Diner and Van Goghs' Ear, both in Union, are my two spots. At Tropicana, they always joke around like, "This is your kitchen, Olivia. You don't even go grocery shopping—you just come here to eat!" They all know me by first name, and I hug everybody when I go in there. It's a really good diner. That's my best secret spot to eat any time, anywhere, any part of the day, and then Van Gogh's Ear is my chill spot. It's an eclectic coffee shop that I'll go to with friends if we just want to chill. They have couches, are open really late and have the best coffee ever. Their chocolate raspberry truffle latte is heaven.
Favorite Cocktail: I love tequila. I will not drink anything but tequila. My favorite drink is a frozen margarita because it's delicious and reminds me of being on vacation, but you can't have more than two because they're so sugary and sweet that you'll be sick to your stomach. I've actually got a lot of people to switch to "The Olivia" drink. It's tequlia and cranberry with two squeezed limes and it's delicious.
