Olsen Twins Expand Fashion Empire with New Online Shop

MK and Ashley Olsen Olsen Twins Expand Fashion Empire with New Online Shop

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are further expanding their already huge empire by entering the e-commerce arena with a new fashion venture. WWD reports that America’s favorite twins are launching StyleMint, a fashion site that will work the same way as jewelry site JewelMint, started by fellow-actress, Kate Bosworth, and her stylist Cher Coulter. Based on the idea of a monthly club, registered members of the site will receive personalized recommendations that will get even more specific as their purchase history expands. Members will also fill out style quizzes so that the site can tailor their purchase suggestions. Additionally, the site will use major social media platforms, like Facebook and Twitter, so that members can share and garner opinions from friends and followers.

StyleMint’s first collection will include a range of 8 T-shirt styles, in a choice of solids and stripes. Each T-shirt is set to retail at $29.99, a real steal when comparing it to the Olsen’s higher-end line, The Row. The Olsens, who are said to be “helping” to design and merchandise the line as well as creating videos for the site, are hoping to branch into sweaters and knits later on.

Ashley told WWD, “Online commerce is the perfect medium for us to create a new brand that is as much about the clothing as it is about the customer experience.” The other twin, the one with the more hipster style, also known as Mary-Kate told WWD, “With StyleMint.com, Ashley and I have created an online experience reflecting our love of style and allowing us to engage with our customers directly, which is an inspiring new way for us to think and create as designers.”  StyleMint is scheduled to launch this upcoming July.  If StyleMint’s selection is anything like The Row or Elizabeth and James, there is a whole lot to be excited about.

Get on the list for StyleMint: http://launch.stylemint.com/

Vanessa Hudgens Over-Does It

vanessahudgens Vanessa Hudgens Over Does ItVanessa Hudgens was spotted late last week running some errands in Beverly Hills, California. Vanessa has been working through a breakup with her longtime boyfriend, Zac Efron, (which we are all secretly happy about!). It was one of the longest young Hollywood relationships to date. We were wondering why Zac stayed with her for so long! On to better things, you two!

She looks to be covering up her feelings with multiple layers of drab, colorless fabric. She did flash a little smile at the paparazzi while getting back into her car, so maybe she is recovering faster than she is letting on.

Vanessa did combine many pieces that are very trendy and popular for the winter season, including some serious over the knee boots with chain detailing, skinny jeans and a longer fur-lined jacket. Her accessories included Ray Ban Wayfarers (a celebrity staple), a black Fendi Messenger Bag and a silver statement knuckle ring by Elizabeth and James.

I think she may have over-accessorized a bit and should tone down all the jewelry when wearing such heavy clothes.  At least her hair looks alright but it’s all too typical Vanessa. Break out of your shell and let all the guys know you are single and ready to mingle!

Valentine's Night Out Dresses

Valentine’s Day plans this year may hold a more casual outing, but that is no reason why you shouldn’t dress up anyway. Dresses are sexy, fun and totally adorable.
