Designer downtime: Dressed in an Ermanno Scervino dress with leopard print ballet pumps, Palermo takes some time out from Paris Fashion Week with her beau, who is in a perfectly-pressed Neil Barrett linen suit
Style secrets: Palermo divulges her fashion tips, saying that her 'eclectic' wardrobe always has a 'pop of colour' and that tailoring is the single most important aspect of dressing
In a feature for Lifestyle Mirror, the couple - who have been dating since 2008 - enjoy a break from the paparazzi and catch up on phone calls at the same time, while lying on crisp white luxury sheets. Palermo wears an Ermanno Scervino dress with cute leopard print ballet pumps while her beau is dressed in a perfectly-pressed linen suit by Neil Barrett and suede loafers by Alberto Guardiani.
Another frame shows her, in leather pants by The Row, laughing, presumably at Huebl who is standing in an empty bath that also doubles as a space for their expansive luggage - even if he manages to carry off the odd pose in style with a Band of Outsiders shirt.
Palermo is also seen relaxing on a cream French parlour chair, dressed in a red Carven floral dress, surrounded by designer shoes from Dolce and Gabbana and Casadei, as well as bags by Nina Ricci and Vionnet.
Thrifty tip: Despite her A-list lifestyle, Palermo maintains that she mixes high street buys with designer items and says, 'It's not how much a piece of jewellery costs. If it's $2, well, that's even more exciting'

Palermo carries her luggage down the hall in Marni sunglasses, a Haider Ackermann black blazer and Alexander Wang lame pants.
Browsing through her clothes she divulges the secret to her consistently perfect style.
'When I'm picking out a top, dress or even a full look, the tailoring is the most important thing,' she says.
'You can find a great piece but you have to find a wonderful tailor at the end of the day.'
Pointing to her favourite Dior bag, a pair of green trousers from Topshop and pile of costume jewelery, Palermo says that she loves 'a pop of colour, even when you're wearing all black', and that choosing an outfit that fits well should a priority over trends.
'It's really important when you have a dress that you're able to have that movement and easiness and that you feel comfortable,' she says.
And, then, despite the opulent A-list lifestyle she leads,Palermo reveals an egalitarian side.
'I always say that it's not how much a piece of jewellery costs. So if it's $2, well, that's even more exciting,' she admits.
