Yay or Nay?: Olsen Twins Red Carpet Style

Posted by Alexandra C. | Monday October 17, 201153 comments

It's a double whammy this Yay or Nay as we're looking at the Olsen twins! Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen attended the New York Film Festival for their sister Elizabeth's film Martha Marcy May Marlene which was showing there. 

I'm a big Olsen style fan for the most part, I've always found that they are ahead of the style curve and they have fabulous taste as evidenced in their line The Row. However, with this particular ensemble, I am beginning to question their fashion cred. 


Here are the issues I am having with this: 

- Why the chunky, top heavy silhouette of fur on a lean, stream lined maxi skirt? Drags their petite frames down! 

- Not loving the heavy under eyeshadow on the left. We actually tried out this look but for the most part, the dramatic bold colour under eyeshadow wasn't well received. 

- What's with the giant furry sleeves on the leather jacket? Had it been an all leather jacket in brown, I could have forgiven this but the fur sleeves are way too over the top for me. 

What do you think of this red carpet style? Are the Olsens pulling this look off?

Those outfits are frightening! I would never wear it and I usually think they do a good job at pulling off bizarre stuff but not in these pictures...

I believe that anyone should be able to wear whatever they want. That said, I wouldn't wear it :)
