    EXCLUSIVE! The Made In Chelsea star predicts which fashionista will knock Victoria off her perch

    Victoria Beckham’s look is loved by (almost) everyone. But while the Brit rides high as queen of style, Millie Mackintosh revealed to Marie Claire who could knock Queen Victoria off her perch.

    When asked whether there was any celebrity capable of stealing Victoria’s fashion crown, Milie told us: ‘Olivia Palermo! The way she puts clothes together is always interesting, always stylish, always chic.’

    Despite this, Millie says she still falls under Victoria's fashion spell: ‘Victoria is incredible, she is dressing her best ever now.

    But Millie's no slouch in the style stakes either. So what's Ms Mackintosh's secret to being fashionably turned out at all times?

    'Mixing it up!' says Millie. ‘Go for a statement piece which is designer and pair it with simple pieces from the high street. Or wear a pair of designer jeans with a Zara blazer. Or a blouse with Topshop jeans and a Warehouse jacket with an amazing pair of Louboutins.’

    What do you think about Olivia Palermo taking over from Victoria Beckham? Do you agree with Millie? Has she the potential to be the next Mrs Beckham? Is anyone capable of reaching the same dizzy fashion heights as Victoria? Let us know below.

    Millie spoke to Marie Claire for the launch of her very own Nouveaux Lashes - priced £8.95 and are available from millie-mackintosh.com
