Why do I Admire Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen?

I have grown up with the Olsen twins, figuratively speaking. Watching them dazzle the live audience on Full House was where it initially began. And then came their Mystery Detective series, I loved those. Their feature length movies, their songs, and matching outfits were just the tip of the iceberg. Do you remember their song Brother for Sale?

To this day, they still inspire me. From their individual style, to their business mindset. Above all, however, the true reason I admire them so? Is how close they are with each other. No matter the fame or fortune, they are there for one another and the rest of their family. This is what sets them apart from the rest of the Hollywood crowd. Their elegance and poise.

Right now, I'm craving a few pieces from their Elizabeth & James line. My Current picks: Round Sunglasses in Black, White Button Up Blouse, and Olive Suede Wedges
also in Black Suede here.

Happy Friday xo!

Oh my goodness, do I remember that song? My sister was obsessed with them and would run around singing that song so I changed it to "sister for sale." How mean right? What's not to love about the twins?

of course i remember brother for sale! amazing. i loved them then and i love them now. elizabeth and james is amazing, but what really sealed the deal for me was The Row! It is breathtaking, so innovative and fresh. I was astounded that the Olsen twins could pull it off but i am so happy for them not to mention in love with them!!! truly stylish, smart and sophisticated women.

I don't own the DVDs, I wish! I did find the instant videos that you can purchase not just rent and I found most of the mysteries and you're invited series on amazon. But within the last year or so they got rid of some of them, I don't know why.

The Girl With a Feather said...

Oh I love them too! I remember that as a little kid, I used to watch their movies, To Grandma's House We Go and How the West Was Fun over and over. And now their designs and style are amazing :)

Andrea said...

Yes, I used to LOVE Two of a Kind, I used to have so many of their books because their show doesn't play in the UK. They both have incredible style, I love that it is how they create their own identity.

Steffanie's Style said...

i totally remember their books! and the movies were always fun to watch as well. I guess as of now they are mostly known for their fashion sense and that kinda makes its easy to forget why they are so iconic to begin with great article and i actually watched the brother for sale video ahahha. not proud of that.

To tell you the truth, I didn't watch Full house, but I started being their fan at mystery detective, billboard dad etc. My all time favorites are "So little time" and "New York minute". I remember they used to have at their site an option where you could create your own site through theirs. I used to have one :)
