Inside Rachel's Closet

I started a new blog to see how it would work - an extension of this one! It's an "Inside her Closet" blog based on Rachel's style - I love everything about this girl and what she wears. Come to the blog - I already have a few posts up!

Inside Rachel's Closet

in the closet: superga sneakers

they're not the gladiator sandals or miu miu pumps but they still manage to work. its probably one of the least expensive pair of shoes in her closet, but also her favourite. the superga sneakers in black can be bought here

In the Closet: Calvin Klein Resort 2009

At the CFDA Awards Show - Head to toe Calvin Klein Resort 2009

cfda awards - june 2 08

A quick post of the outfit - more comments later. I can say I love it though!

a couple of hours later

this outfit is ashley olsen at her best - classic, clean and minimal. She pulls the jodphurs off very well. It's easy to wear such overstated pieces such as these if the tailoring is perfect, which it is here. I love the sheen of the fabric and how it flows in the right places. However, don't you think this is quite similar to her dress from last year's CFDA's? It's as if it were the boyish version of it! Either way... A+ rating from me.

influence book launch - NYC

Ashley looked absolutely stunning (along with MK) at the launch for their new book "Influence". It will be a "coffe-table" book that will feature all things the girls find inspirational and influential. Here are the details so far

Young stars Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen mingled with 70 booksellers at a party in West Hollywood to promote their glossy October book, Influence. The bash wasn't open to reporters, but Mary-Kate got on the phone later to talk about the project and why the twins wanted the word out early.

"It was the first party to launch the book, and we just wanted booksellers to know that we're really excited about it," says Olsen, 21. "We worked so hard on it."

In the photo-heavy Influence (Razorbill, $35), Mary-Kate and Ashley together and separately interview 22 actors, designers and photographers they consider influential, including Karl Lagerfeld, Lauren Hutton, Diane von Furstenberg and Margherita Missoni. There will be two jackets, with a different Olsen on each front cover and the other on the back.

"We wanted it to be an inspiring book about people who are successful," Olsen says. "Sometimes we all get lost in the process of our lives, and it's inspiring to hear others' stories and to know there will be ups and downs and to hear how they got through it."

Ashley Olsen leaves a fashion event - Greenwich Village

Ashley was seen leaving an early CFDA dinner in NY. She wore a complete outfit from Calvin Klein along with the clutch she wore to the SATC premiere.

She looks amazing - her legs are insane! I love how she easily pulls of the oversized blazer
I'm really excited to see the outfit she will pick to wear to the CFDA awards. If it's the Calvin Klein I blogged about, then I'll be very pleased!

Ashley Olsen at Los Angeles Airport - May 31

New candids of Ashley seen leaving LA for New York. The scarf, skinny jean and cardigan look always works well while traveling - I love the navy inspired scarf and simple white shoes

In the Closet: Jennifer Meyer Hammered Gold Disk Necklace

The last post I did featured Ashley's sunglasses but I couldn't help drooling over her jewelry. At the Independent Spirit Awards in 2006 Ashley wore a Jennifer Meyer Hammered Gold Disk Necklace - the jewelry designer is best known for her marriage to Tobey McGuire (Spiderman!)

In the Closet: Tom Ford Hawking Sunglasses

This is one of those pictures I've kept in my inspiration folder for a long time - I think this was one of Ashley's best accessories look. The Tom Ford Hakwing aviator glasses are effortlessly cool but the silver rings on each finger and diamond studs make it look anything but boring.
