When Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen launched their menswear lines, their first “customers” were their respective boyfriends Nate Lowman and Justin Bartha. The twins gave Justin and Nate whatever they wanted from the lines and the guys like them so much they ended up wearing the clothes almost every day. They both have different styles, but somehow they agree on the clothes. Mary-Kate and Ashley were delighted and talked their guys into appearing in a series of ads promoting the clothing lines.

GET IN LINE! MARY-KATE AND ASHLEY OLSEN ARE SELLING CLOTHES OUT OF A TRUCK
Filed Under: Ashley Olsen > Fashion > Mary Kate Olsen > Olsenboye
Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen work hard for the money. The girls have yet another clothing line – this is an affordable sporty collection called Olsenboye – aimed at teens for JC Penny. They’re promoting the new line in a pink ice cream truck that’s parked in a different NYC neighborhood every day. Clothes are both shown and sold from the truck and the money goes to charity. Cute idea. We hope to see the truck on Robertson Blvd. Posted by

MARY-KATE AND ASHLEY OLSEN ARE TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS

When is the last time you saw Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen looking so blonde – or so happy? The twins are in Canada promoting their “Elizabeth & James” fashion line on the Muchmusic TV show. We’re guessing they’re happy because, despite the recession, business is good for them. It’s not often celebrity designers can start off at Wal-Mart and end up at posh stores like Barneys. The Olsens still have their tween line at Wal-Mart, they have their Elizabeth & James line at upscale department stores, and their high end collection “The Row” at exclusive boutiques.

Not only does Mary-Kate Olsen have a date, but she’s all dressed up for the opera! Mary Kate showed up for the Metropolitan Opera’s 125th Season Gala in New York with this fellow we don’t recognize, and she looks blonder than we remember. Or maybe it’s the red lipstick.

THE HAIR LOOKS FAMILIAR, BUT NOT THE BODY

At first glance, it’s difficult to figure out who this is. That’s because Mary-Kate Olsen is rarely seen wearing a form fitting, rather sexy outfit. Usually she opts for lots of layers and baggy clothes, but the Independent Spirit Awards brought out the girly side of her.

THE OLSEN TWINS JOIN FORCES TO HUNT FOR HANDBAGS

We haven’t seen Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen just hanging out and shopping together for quite awhile. After so many years of togetherness, they are, indeed, leading separate lives. Here they are in the handbag department in Barneys on Madison Avenue – we forget how tiny they are until we see them around a lot of normal sized people. Note Mary-Kate’s sheer shoes.

MARY-KATE AND ASHLEY OLSEN TAKE A BREAK FROM HIGH HEELS

Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen had a business meeting in the fashionable meat packing district of New York. As usual, Mary-Kate is a little more accessorized than her sister, but we love how tiny Ashley looks in flat boots. (Especially compared to the giant behind her.)

MARY-KATE OLSEN GETS SOME CULTURAL STIMULATION
Filed Under: Art > Art Basel > Mary Kate Olsen

You’d never guess where Mary-Katel Olsen was when this photo was taken. Miami Beach! And NO giant sunglasses! She looks more Soho than Miami in that velvet hat and velvet jacket, but she’s appropriately dressed for the cultural art event she’s going to. She and her boyfriend Nate Lowman and friends attended the prestigious Art Basel event, to see and perhaps invest in an amazing international selection of art.

MARY KATE AND ASHLEY ARE UNDAUNTED BY PETA
Filed Under: Ashley Olsen > Influence > Mary Kate Olsen > PETA
It’s time PETA figured out that personal insults are NOT the way to coax people into stop wearing fur. This is how they appeared at the Olsen twins book signing in Westwood at Borders. It’s enough to make you want to go out and buy something furry as soon as possible just to defy them.

Unruffled by the insults, Mary-Kate and Ashley must be at a good place in their lives. They look happier and healthier than ever. And we appreciate the fact that they don’t wear skin tight clothes like so many misguided celebrities do.

THE OLSEN TWINS ADD TO THEIR EMPIRE

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen look particularly healthy here as they promote their new book “Influence.” The coffee table book is all about the people who inspired the successful twins – from Lauren Hutton to Karl Lagerfeld. Still, the Olsens seem down to earth – one of the twins (our eyewitness can’t tell them apart) was seen at the Fairfax flea market lugging around a wrought iron 50’s telephone table she’d just bought, looking delighted with her score.

MARY- KATE OLSEN WANTS TO ACT, AND IF NECESSARY, SHE'LL RETURN TO TV
Filed Under: Christina Applegate > Mary Kate Olsen > Samantha Who?
Mary-Kate Olsen’s upcoming guest appearance on “Samantha Who?” may be the tip of a significant iceberg. Producers raved about her performance as a rebellious bad girl who reminds amnesia-stricken Samantha (played by Christina Applegate) of her younger self. If her character clicks, there’s a chance she might spin off into her own show. Mary-Kate’s movie career has stalled and she really wants to act, so TV is looking better all the time.

Now that all the Heath Ledger furor is behind her, Mary-Kate Olsen surfaced in New York, looking very downtown and low key. She does, however, appear healthier that she has in awhile, and hey- she doesn’t have a cigarette in her hand.

MARY-KATE OLSEN: THE OXYCONTIN CONNECTION?

Mary Kate Olsen seems to be getting celebrity treatment when it comes to the Heath ledger investigation. According to the NY Post, the NYPD talked to everyone connected to Heath’s death except her, but the US Drug Enforcement Administration wants her cooperation. They’re determined to find out where Heath got his Oxycontin. Prescription bottles for Heath’s other drugs were found on the scene, but where he got the fatal Oxycontin remains a mystery. Was it a dealer? If the bottle was removed from the scene, who took it? Mary Kate seems to have answers, but her lawyer says she won’t talk without IMMUNITY. Is anybody surprised?

MARY-KATE OLSEN GIVES HER FEET A REST, NOT HER LUNGS

Nice to see Mary-Kate Olsen looking casual and comfortable. That vintage Kenny Rogers T shirt adds a touch of whimsy. The diminutive twin had a liquid lunch of miso soup with girlfriends at Real Food Daily in West Hollywood. She gave her feet a rest by wearing flat sandals, but she didn’t give her lungs a rest – she took a smoke break outside.

YOU KNOW THE OLSEN'S DESIGNS ARE SPECIAL IF MAXFIELD CARRIES THEM
Filed Under: Ashley Olsen > Fashion > Mary Kate Olsen > The Row
Last weekend we had our first hands-on experience with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s upscale clothing line called “The Row.” (It’s named after the sartorially famous Savile Rowe in London.) The Olsens are best known for their perky Wal-Mart designs but this collection is obviously a labor of love. It’s very expensive and only sold in stores like Barneys New York, Browns in London, and Maxfield. (These are the places the Olsens actually shop at.) Maxfield had their final markdown sale last week and we saw some of the Olsen’s lush merchandise, including black leather leggings. We found a pair of unusual long red sleeves reduced to $29 by The Row and we snapped them up.

IT'S NOT OBAMA, IT'S MARY-KATE AND ASHLEY!
Filed Under: Ashley Olsen > Mary Kate Olsen > Real Estate
West Village residents on West 13th Street in New York have been wondering if a presidential candidate moved into the neighborhood. The streets are clogged with black SUVs full of bodyguards around the clock. It turned out it’s only Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen. The twins rented a 10 room apartment with five bedrooms at the modest price (for them) of $12000 a month. One neighbor remarked that the girls “Certainly keep late hours. I was jogging early one morning and they were piling out of their gas guzzlers in their little club outfits.”

We find ourselves strangely attracted to these sunglasses that Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are wearing – especially the ones on the right. Does anyone know where these glasses came from?

MARY KATE OLSEN AND HEATH LEDGER: THE BIG COVER-UP
Filed Under: Heath Ledger > Mary Kate Olsen > scandal
Photo Credit: Buzz Foto
New York cops are NO Longer planning to question Mary-Kate Olsen about her involvement in the death of Heath Ledger and we think this is why: Mary Kate’s gaggle of high priced lawyers started emailing threatening messages to newspapers covering the tragedy shortly after Heath was found dead. Her lawyer threatened that if any reporter were to write anything false or defamatory about Mary-Kate in connection with Heath Ledger’s death – that the reporter and the newspaper would be sued. It raises the question, were the police pressured by her legal pit bulls the same way? We may never know what happened in those nine minutes between the unlicensed masseuse’s first peculiar call to Mary-Kate and the arrival of paramedics. There must be a lot Mary-Kate doesn’t want us to know.
