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?

NAY. Definitely not into this look. It's very frumpy and does not suit them at all .

Nay!
The on on the right ( i was never great at telling them apart) isn't all that bad, but the left i just soo bad. the skirt might work, but the hair, makeup and that horrible coat just don't cut it.

NAY!! Their outfits look so gloomy and like they've been sitting in an attic for the past 70 years. There's no life in their expressions either.

Nay, they look really old and unhappy, like a couple of old goldfish running out of tank water. They need some color.

it's a NAY.the fur does look heavy especially with one of the twins where she has a patterned pant. Too busy, too heavy, too much!
