For its second shoe debut, Elizabeth & James designed some amazing footwear for Fall. (more…)
CommentsCelebrity clothing lines are a dime a dozen nowadays, having become so unreasonably commonplace that it might be safe to say you’re not a real star unless you manage to churn out one (though you couldn’t even dress yourself without the help of a professional). I’ll be the first to say leave it the ones who know what they’re doing, but I will also say that there have been a few, very few that not only have managed to stay relevant as far as fashion is concerned, but exemplifies the true spirit of design: originality, creativity and quality–a rarity amongst the famous. Here are the exceptions:

1. Elizabeth and James by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen- because they don’t try so hard.

2. L.A.M.B by Gwen Stefani- the shoes are beyond dope.

3. J.Lo, Sweetface by Jennifer Lopez- even though Sweetface went belly up, she’s the one that started it all, and don’t act like you’ve never owned (or wanted to own) at least one pair of her jeans or one of those ghetto fabulous velour sweatsuits. Guilty.

4. Kate Moss for Topshop- a fashionista’s wet dream

5. House of Harlow by Nicole Richie- hate the girl, love the jewelry.

6. Benjamin Bixby by Andre 3000- gettin his grown man on.

7. Twenty8Twelve by Sienna Miller- Does she still qualify as a celebrity? Nonetheless spring/summer 09 is looking pretty good…

8. Chloe Sevigny for Opening Ceremony- hipster chic at its finest.

9. The Victoria Beckham Collection- this shameless clotheshorse knows her shit.

10. William Rast by Justin Timberlake- I think we were all surprised that this didn’t turn out as bad as we had assumed.

Some images from the Elizabeth & James Fall 2009 lookbook have started to circulate.
Reportedly inspired by Peter Pan’s Lost Boys, the images feature both the women’s and the men’s collections and the Olsens’ footwear collaboration line with Steve Madden.
The collection is full of slouchy blazers, high hemlines, fitted pants, a furry jacket, and lots of black.

We’ve finally been able to ID the gladiators that Mary-Kate’s been running around in for the last month! You can’t get them anywhere yet because they’re part of the forthcoming footwear collab between the Olsens’ Elizabeth & James label and Steve Madden.
The “Edge” gladiator sandal is one style from the Pre-Fall 2009 shoe collection. The designs are strong but understated – their mutability in color and style make them adaptable for different outfits and seasons.
The collection will range in price from about $270-325, and is now available for pre-order at Nordstrom.com.

with Margarita Levieva (the actress she understudies)

The third and youngest Olsen (age 20), Elizabeth (Elizabeth and James was named after her and their older brother) is thrilled to be making her Broadway debut. She was recently an understudy for the Off-Broadway play Dust. Currently she is pursuing a BFA at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts at the Atlantic Theater Co.
I love Lizzie, she’s so cute, down to earth, and looks exactly like the twins, only has brown hair. She’s just as fashionable and very lucky to be able to borrow clothes from her two older siblings.

A while ago Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen announced their plans to collaborate with Robert Lee Morris on a jewelry line, and we’ve seen pieces here and there since last year.
As more of the collection is released, I’m surprised by how minimalist they are, for the most part. Though simple, the pieces are still a little glamorous. I especially want to get my fingers in the snake wrap ring, above.
These pieces (and more) are available for pre-order at Intermix for $95-$525.

The Spring 2009 lookbook images for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen’s Elizabeth & James are now available.
As usual, the collection looks incredibly wearable and versatile. In nearly 20 images, the Olsens show off dozens of new solid-colored separates that offer countless combinations and layering possibilities. Some E&J jewelry pieces also feature in the lookbook.
In true Olsen tradition, many pieces are slouchy yet sculpted, which makes the line a combination of young and sophisticated. Speaking of sophisticated, love the My Little Pony and other toys!

Mary-Kate and Ashley sure are keeping busy!
They’re already working on a menswear line for The Row and an Elizabeth & James shoe line with Steve Madden.
Now, just weeks after the sneak peek at the men’s pieces for The Row, WWD has reported that the Olsens will also launch a menswear line for Elizabeth & James. It will be available at Barney’s this fall.
Ashley said the collection will be “about balancing uptown and downtown.” The sisters reportedly found inspiration in Oliver Twist and Peter Pan’s Lost Boys.
