The New Adventures of Mary Kate & Ashley |
At some point in time College Humor got funny and launched my favorite web series, ever -- "Very Mary Kate" and I began religiously tuning in to see how Elaine Carroll would lambaste MK each week.

For those of you who have been living under a rock since 2007, The Row is the high end Olsen run label, specializing in minimalist apparel that the fashion savvy would die for. The label is infamous for it's super luxurious and super expensive fur, hide and combo of the aforementioned bags--first the alligator backpack (left) and more recently a animal patch bag that goes with their current collection. Though PETA members won't be rushing to buy anything for the Olsen sister's line, it would be hard to deny their natural knack for creating "what's next" in the fashion world.
While I wish I could talk about The Row all day, I honestly do not have that much experience with the brand given my lack of funds as of recent. Thankfully MK & A graced the fashion world with another chic line that has a much more manageable price point.
Elizabeth and James is one of my favorite RTW lines. Carrying pieces that feature the same lines and silhouettes that every minimalist loves in fashion forward prints any 20-something would impulse buy in a second. If you are a regular reader of C&CB you will recall me featuring pieces from their spring 2012 collection on several occasions. The reason is, not only that I adore the brand, but also because Elizabeth and James' collections are versatile. I got the navy pin dot maude suiting jacket this past spring and swear that I wear it with everything!

I cannot gush enough about how much I am obsessed with this jacket and when perusing Piperlime yesterday I found the matching overalls. Now I am not normally a fan of overalls and would never wear them with this jacket...but with a crisp white blouse, they would be super fly.

Fast, rising stars of the fashion world -- Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are much more than just child stars with a clothing line. The two former actresses are full blown fashion designers and are leaving a big mark on the NYC garment district. I cannot wait to see what they do next.
