They've Got Something in Common...Ashley Olsen and Naomi Campbell, 2008 CFDA Fashion Awards

Are Ashley Olsen and Naomi Campbell on to something? The two fashion forward ladies both showed up at the 2008 CFDA Fashion Awards wearing jodhpurs, otherwise known as 'hammer pants.' When both a model, and a socialite wear something, it's officially a trend, right? I don't know how I feel about this one, though. Initially, I wouldn't think this trend was for the everyday girl, but Raych over at That's Chic shows us how it's done. Are jodhpurs a trend that you'll be embracing this season?


Ashley Olsen Takes Casual to Couture

An outfit that looks this effortless probably required a lot of thought, but I love how Ashley Olsen manages to make such a casual outfit look so chic. Here's Ashley looking her usual fabulous self at the Everywhere at Once cocktail party and screening. From the knees up, Ashley's look is way laid back, just a grey sweater paired with a simple black skirt. But what takes the look from fashionably safe to fashionably forward is Ashley's choice of shoe. Gladiator sandals are big this season (specifically this pair, Balenciaga's tie-dye gladiator), and Ashley Olsen shows us exactly how to work them. Who knew what a difference a shoe could make?


PETA Goes After The Trollsen...Er, Olsen Twins

PETA has launched a new website dedicated to their favorite fur wearers, the Olsen twins. Called Meet the Trollsen Twins, the site 'mocks' Ashley and Mary Kate Olsen for both wearing fur and including it in their clothing line, The Row. I get that the people at PETA are on a mission to liberate all animals, but this is a bit much. The entire website and concept is so junior high. The website includes a poster that calls the girls ugly, and there's even a section where you can send the Olsen twins an emailed letter for wearing fur. To prove how catty the site is, here's an excerpt from the Trollsen twins' myspace page:
" Hi, we're Hairy Kate and Trashley Trollsen, and like most trolls, we live under a bridge and wait for furry animals to walk by so we can skin them and wear them as hats. Because we're celebrities, we don't have to live by the same rules that ugly people like you do, and if we want to wrap ourselves up in someone else's skin, or drape our bodies in the rotting remains of someone's family, we totally can! And boy, do we ever. "

I respect everyone's personal views, and if you're for fur, or against it, that's your prerogative. Just keep in mind that PETA is against the use of animals for anything, including leather, wool, zoos, and even pets. Do with that knowledge what you will.

Inspired Style...Ashley Olsen

Who knew that the Olsen twins would grow up to be fashion icons? Both Ashley and Mary Kate Olsen have consistently proven that they're fashionably aware. Here, Ashley sports skinny jeans with leopard shoes. We may not be able to afford her wardrobe, but we can definitely afford Ashley's look.
