Mary-Kate & Ashley in the Irish Independent
March 30, 2008 by Erin Balser
The Irish Independent published a nice article about Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and their current fashion projects today. It doesn’t say anything new (except that Ashley had a cold during fashion week!), but it’s really nice to see the girls get coverage for their projects.
They’re respected in the fashion industry:
“The Olsens certainly have more style credibility than the other American starlets of their generation,” says Perushka DeZoysa, a buyer for Selfridges. “The collection covers a lot of bases, from amazing plume vests to comfy trousers. And really, it was a very good way for us to tap into the Olsen magic.”
They are self-deprecating:
As Ashley heads off to a design meeting in her towering stilettos, I remark that it’s a wonder she can walk in them. “Oh, I’m pretty skilled,” she boasts before giggling. “Watch, now I’ll wipe out in them as soon as I walk outside. I’ll call and let you know if I fall. Actually, you’ll probably read about it in the paper if it happens. Depending on who’s waiting outside, you might even see a picture.”

Have you managed to get hold of Star or National Enquirer yet?
I was going to buy them today and try and scan them later this week.

My ex just called to tell me that both girls were at South Street Diner in Boston a few hours ago. I can’t believe they were in my city (AGAIN) and I missed them (AGAIN)…did they have a trunk show for the row here like in Dallas a few weeks ago? Anyway, thought you’d all like to know…
