Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen Launch Olsenboye For JCPenney
On to the next. The rumors are true: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are launching a juniors line for JCPenney. Olsenboye makes total sense: the sisters began their retailer endeavors in the junior market — it's not to be forgotten.
This Week's Fab Faves
You shouldn't be surprised this week's Fab faves are overflowing with style splendor — it was London Fashion Week. Kate Moss, Carine Roitfeld, Mary-Kate Olsen, Victoria Beckham, and Naomi were all there to revel. But Naomi looked most daring in her citron cobweb print Alexander McQueen minishift; isn't it perfect for her naughty personality?
Freaky or Fabulous: Ashley and Mary-Kate's Laced Ears
Girls just wanna have fun. That's exactly what Ashley and Mary-Kate did this past weekend at the Opening Ceremony reception in Japan, when they paired Maison Michel's laced ears with their LBDs — was Madonna on to something? Check out Ashley donning quirky lace Mickey Mouse ears with an LBD from The Row collection, cream coat, Ralph Lauren tortoise sunglasses, studded sandals, and funky red handbag — both from Prada.
Elizabeth and James Shoes Online For the Taking!
I was fighting my inner demons in the Neiman's shoe department the other day (it's sale time), when I stumbled across a table of Elizabeth and James shoes. Mary-Kate and Ashley's much anticipated shoe line is out and about. The well-crafted shoes manage to be both unique and wearable, and remember Mary-Kate told me about how the gladiators were inspired by Ashley's trip to Greece?
Elizabeth and James's Fall Chill
It's all about Peter Pan and London life for Elizabeth and James. For Fall, Ashley and Mary-Kate are showcasing their men's line as well as their footwear collection in their imagery. I spy oversize blazers, worn-in stripes, lingerie-like florals, the perfect minimal black pants, and a saucy pair of sculptured shows for the girls.
The Met's Costume Institute Gala: Mary-Kate Olsen
You knew Mary-Kate wasn't going to wear something simple. Far from. She swept through the Met Gala in a vintage Lacroix gown.

Independent Spirit Awards: Mary-Kate Olsen
First off, I didn't mention I had an Elizabeth and James conversation with Mary-Kate at Fashion Week — stay tuned for more on that! In the meantime, Mary-Kate showed up in what appears to be a vintage frock. Leave it to the risk-taker to rock wide shoulders and tons of jewels.
Are You Interested in Buying Elizabeth and James Footwear?
When we first found out Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen were to create a shoe line with Steve Madden, we were elated with the thought of buying funky footwear at an affordable price. We like the Victorian meets dominatrix style, seen left, but the prices are far from desirable. The collection is set to retail from $195 to $500, which is unusually high since Steve Madden offerings typically range from $70 to $250.
