Steve Madden to Design for Olsenboye

Steve Madden has finalized a deal with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen to manufacture shoes and accessories for the pair’s new Olsenboye JC Penney’s brand.
Olsen Twins Get Shady

The duo known as Mary-Kate and Ashley are expanding their high-end fashion line, The Row, to include a collection of sunglasses. They’re said to be teaming up eyewear designer Linda Farrow and the line is expected to be ready in time for next spring.
They’re said to be creating only four looks, which would include aviators, oversized, vintage-inspired, and round rims– all of which reflect both of the girl’s personal taste in shade-wear.

WTF!?! Mary-Kate Olsen Can’t Win

Tabloids are hating on Mary-Kate Olsen again for her weight, this time criticizing her for being too fat? Here’s a breakdown of the hatefest on MK’s fluctuating weight:

In 2004, Star claimed she was on drugs.

In 2007, they finally believed she was anorexic, but still criticized her

In 2008, they said she’d head back to rehab for drugs and alcohol
I wish they’d just leave her alone. It’s always too thin or too fat, and in reality, it doesn’t even matter! The photos are probably courtesy of Photoshop anways…What do you guys think?

MOMENTS OF STYLE: Mary-Kate And Ashley Olsen

SO cute. MKA showed up at the Opening Ceremony flagship store opening in Tokyo wearing Maison Michel ears made from lace. These are absolutely fabulous, and as if I didn’t already love everything that the Olsen twins did, they surprise me again! Must have these…

VIDEO: The Olsens, Before They Decided Singing Was A Bad Idea
I’ll admit it, when I was a little girl I absolutely loved the ‘You’re Invited’ series, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen’s party videos, where they’d invite two of their friends over and call it a party, then sing ridiculous songs (complete with dances!) about things that were completely embarrassing. Well, I just remembered that these were the best things ever, and found their performance of ‘Fashion Jr. High.’ Please watch, you will not regret it at all.
QUOTABLE: Mary-Kate Olsen

“(In the fashion world) everyone is just really looking out for themselves. I don’t know if I’ll be designing this collection forever. A couple of years from now, I’m sure I’ll want to do something else, and I’m not going to shy away from that.
“What if I just want to be an artist, or if I want to go back to acting? Which is not in the cards, but what if I wanted to do that?”

25 UNDER 25: Stylish People To Know
We’ve composed a list of the twenty five most stylish people we know under twenty five (well, a couple are “25″). Influences, creatives, or just plain crazy people, here’s Fashion Indie’s take on who to know, and who we wish we were as stylish as:
Celebrities-
Rihanna- Ri’s been really stepping it up lately. She’s got a wide range of looks, and is starting to find a world of her own when it comes to her style.
Lady Gaga- Everyone knows she’s crazy. Lady Gaga is definitely changing the views of fashion right now
Taylor Momsen- Are you surprised? You know we love her.
Emma Watson- The young HP actress is growing up! And looking hot at every event, if we do say so ourselves.
The Olsen Twins- They’ve been in the fashion eye for awhile now, and now that they’ve got some of their own lines, they always look awesome.
Zoe Kravitz- Lenny’s daughter! This teen has been making a lot of appearances lately, and looks good!
–
Models-
Chanel Iman- Our favorite model to follow on Twitter. Chanel is so adorable, and has really awesome style (check out those boots!)
Tallulah Morton- She’s all over the Cobra Snake (in a Cory Kennedy way), and always looking fly.
Cole Mohr- This is for you Kirby. Cole brought boyish and grunge to the fashion forefront, for models anyway. Plus he’s incredibly handsome, which definitely isn’t a bad thing.
Ethan James- Ethan is being seen more and more on the fashion scene (Milan fashion week, H & M, tons of editorial spreads), and has a similar look to Cole. I actually went to high school with this Ford model, and he’s been the most stylish guy I know since he was 15.
Jethro Cave- Pioneered the half-shaved head. LOVE those hanger tattoos.
–
Fashion Personalities and Party People-
Alexa Chung- Whether she’s dressed to kill or wearing denim cutoffs, Alexa Chung is always on top of her game.
Chloe Sevigny- Great designer, great style icon. I’m in love with her buckle booties, which she is seen wearing a lot, paired with skinny pants or cute dresses. Definitely a hipster style icon. We know she isn’t exactly under 25, but she’s been around for so long as a stylish designer to know, and like our moms, is one of those women that turn 25 every year for the rest of their lives.
Peaches Geldof- This social always looks gorgeous (as do all the Geldofs), for events or on the street with her fake fiance.
Aaron Kolfage- Fashion Indie’s favorite party host and dear friend, Aaron always looks fierce on Friday nights at Ruff Club. He dresses with such creativity, I haven’t seen anything like it anywhere else. This weekend, Aaron was wearing a giant tulle bowtie with a brooch in the middle, and I was mad jealous. Aaron gives us Midwesterners hope for being incredibly stylish, he’s from Michigan!
Fashion Bloggers-
Pelayo of Kate Loves Me – This guy, and his girlfriend, both have killer style. He wears some of the craziest things I’ve ever seen (including Louis Vuitton mesh tights!), and has perfectly coiffed hair at all times.
Lovisa The Intern- Lovisa Drever is all over Lookbook.nu, but I know her from Waffles + Falafels (who even briefly carried a shirt with her photo on it). She’s got a killer sense of style and can pull anything off, plus adds to the crazy personalities of W + F, who are some of my favorite people.
Six Six Sick Girls- These hosts and bloggers DIY matching outfits for their events, which include everything from red wigs to elbow gloves. They not only have a crazy (and matching) sense of DIY style, they also post some (literally) sick stuff on their blog.
Kirby Marzec- Fashion Indie’s own managing editor, Kirby not only knows everything about every designer, and what’s going to be hot next season, but she also isn’t afraid to pull it off. Whether it’s drop (to the knee) crotch pants, DIY ripped tees, or metal vests, you can be assured that Kirby will wear it, and she’ll wear it damn well.
Jazzi McG- We had a half hour long talk the other day about how much we love Jazzi’s blog, and her style. A queen of DIYing and always dressed perfectly for the occasion, she’s definitely one to watch.
Tavi of Style Rookie- Tavi is no rookie, maybe in the way that ‘Rookie of the Year’ becomes a professional baseball player, Tavi dresses better than some veterans of fashion.
Camille of Childhood Flames- Another not-even-legal fashion blogger showing that you don’t have to have a career to be fashionable, this sixteen year old is a pro at mixing designer goods with things we can afford, and is also taking advantage of the DIY world.
Lucas Logan- This 18-year-old from LA is all over the internet, model/blogger (Stylish Kids In Riot)/designer, Lucas is California’s newest ‘It’ Kid, braces and all.
–
Musicians-
Uffie- I mean look at her, in.sane.
The Veronicas- I’ve followed The Veronicas since I was in high school, and their style has definitely evolved into rocker chic. They always look good separately, and even better together, on stage or off, and aren’t afraid to take risks.
Moments Of Style: Mary-Kate Olsen

MK is doing a lot of shopping (is that a hat box I spy?). At first glance, I thought those flats were house slippers, but I don’t really think they are. This is as non-put together I’ve seen her in a long time, but I still think she looks great

THE TEN: Best Celebrity Clothing Lines
Celebrity 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.
MOMENTS OF STYLE: Mary-Kate Olsen

In my mind, MK Olsen can do no wrong. Those glasses are to die for, and the shoes? Killer. Is it just me, or has it been awhile since you’ve seen the Olsens in a photo together? Just a thought…
