Nothing about Ashley Olsen's outfit of yesterday works. The prayer beads/Blackberry combo alone is wrong enough to have surely caused some sort of karmic combustion somewhere. And that's before we've touched on the mash-up of Prada sunglasses, orange croc leather handbag and? Birkenstocks. (Ah, they bring back memories. Can there really have been a time when people referred to them as "Berkies"?).
Shop: What would Ashley Olsen wear?
I love eccentric dressing (on other people). And the little fashion pixies known as the Olsens do it better than most. They're the Talitha Gettys of contemporary New York: so wealthy they can afford to look like hobos, so stylish they don't have to be fashionable. If Ashley is feeling the Buddhist-monk-does-5th-Avenue look of a morning, she's damn well going to do it.
Like I said, nothing about Ashley Olsen's outfit of yesterday works - for anyone but her. And I'm down with that.
