Forward through their attempt at NYU to now. Ashley has all but dropped acting and now heads the Row, which is really fantastic. She has captured how to make couture lines wearable to the every day. She was the first person to put couture seams on a tee/tank. That's pretty remarkable for a now 22-year-old. Mary Kate is still acting (well) and does a good job with Elizabeth and James, their more affordable (though still expensive) line.
Basically, these are young women who grew up in fame, so their perspective on it is more jaded, deservedly. Moreover, they grew up admiring these people just like us, except they can actually afford them and go out with them. poor us.
Regardless, my point is these are girls that actually have a clue what they're talking about and they're asking questions that aren't entirely typical because they know how to dance around cliche questions. They've obviously been there.
There's a pretty heavy-handedness to Mary Kate's love of Warholian culture just in terms of who she interviews and the questions involved. Ashley, you can tell has more of a designer's appreciation for these people. She loves them like a wearer, but also can be considered a colleague, and I think that comes across from time to time.
If you have an interest in fashion, photography, the culture that surrounds that and you care about them in a way that you aren't looking for the next YSL biography, I'd definitely recommend this to you. Its a fantastic read and I think it really helps you get over the fact that these are the Olsen twins and now they're using their entity (read: influence) to prove their talent.
It was never going to satisfy the person who "seen" it in Urban Outfitter and it likely won't impress most who buy it because they are fans of the tv show. If you love, love, love style books by reality "stars" don't buy this book.
It's fantastic for someone who loves the history of fashion. For those who have watched their style evolve over the years. You will get an idea of how these two developed their sense of style and fashion based on people who have influenced them. Influenced. Get it?
You don't have to be a fan of the Olsen's as performers, or age 25 or younger to like this book. Just a true fashion history fan and someone who likes great pictures.

How very clever- there's about a couple of pages of them writing about them, many photos, and the rest are interviews with the artists and designers they admire and are inspired by. And through the dialogue you get to see plenty of who they are and their charms and charisma.
I didn't know which one is Ashley and which one is MK before reading but now I know- I can tell them apart and I'd be able to from their wardrobes and even from comments. Really interesting. The one for keepers.
