Mary-Kate Olsen in Fur in New York City

February 16, 2009 by Erin Balser  

A day after PETA named Mary-Kate Olsen one of the worst-dressed celebrities of the year, MK was spotted out and about in New York City wearing a fur coat!

Belvedere IX Launch Party

I doubt the choice was an intentional snub, but I do think it’s pretty funny.

On February 12, Mary-Kate spent the day running a few errands and attending meetings. She was seen walking in NYC in a giant fur coat, sunglasses and black leggings and carrying coffee. See the photos here.

Later that evening, MK attended the Belvedere IX Launch party, which was celebrating a new brand of vodka by Belvedere Vodka. Belverdere IX is supposed to be the ultimate fusion of art and city nightlife in drink form. Since it’s going for that high-brow hipster chic scene, having the party at the Bowery and inviting MK and her boyfriend Nate Lowman is a pretty great marketing move.

I can’t tell if she changed her outfit for the party, but it looks like she never took off that giant fur coat! Was it cold in the Bowery that night?

The star-studded event was held at the Bowery Hotel and attendees included Mena Suvari, Andre, Andre 3000, Devorah Rose and more. Belvedere Vodka is pushing this new brand pretty hard, as they’ve held several launches for the drink all over the country this past week.

Tunes were supplied by DJ Paul Sevigny. The event catered to the hipster NYC scene and was very hip, exclusive and tons of fun. You can see photos from the event here.
