From the elegant taste of Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, here’s Elizabeth and James’ Lucinda Dress.  What’s cool about this dress is that you can wear it any way you please.  From boat neck, to Sabrina neck, to asymmetric toga style, or with a huge belt and go ‘batwing’ look like they did in the 70’s, the choice is yours!

Next, from the quirky L.A.M.B. collection that truly reflects its celebrity designer’s taste in fun but stylish clothes, Gwen Stefani, we have the Twiggy Plaid Coat.  Wear it with the right attitude and people will think you’re related to England’s Royal Family.

And last but not least, the newest TV personality to add her success in the fashion world, Lauren Conrad.  We like her collection as they are done with taste, albeit some which we’ve seen before.  But this time, Lauren scored with a simple white cardigan with a layered effect on the front. It’s so elegant for winter and we couldn’t resist getting it with the 30% off from Shopbop!

The Olsen twins have created a fashion jewelry collection through Robert Lee Morris under the brand Elizabeth and James.

“We’ve always done our own thing and sometimes people appreciate it or they don’t, or it’s shocking or it’s not,” said Ashley, who the night before being interviewed appeared in New York at the Council of Fashion Designers of America Fashion Awards draped in an oversize black Calvin Klein Collection suit. “We don’t follow the trends of other people. We’ve never had stylists, we do our own thing. So when you find individuals like that, especially in the fashion industry, people pay attention. Whether they agree with it or not is a different story.”

“We both have a love for accessories and they’ve always been important to us from Day One,” Mary-Kate said. “They can help make an outfit or make you feel different. Maybe a ring brings you good luck, or you got it as a present and it means so much to you. It’s a feeling that you get when you put on something that is special.”

Hitting stores in September, Robert Lee Morris for Elizabeth and James consists of 80-plus styles, including thick metal cuffs and rings, earrings and necklaces accented with turquoise beading, crosses and daggers. The collection is meant to be mixed and matched and retails from $65 to $700.

“We liked the idea of having playful elements along with timeless and ageless pieces,” Ashley said. “The symbols are attachable and you can take the jewelry and make it your own. There are solid silver and gold pieces to wear forever and comfort pieces that you’ll put on and wear everywhere.”

The Olsen twins have been super successful marketing to little girls into dolls… nowadays they’re known for celebrity drama and kooky getups. Do you think they’ll be able to sell grownups on a jewelry line?

The Olsen twins sure have come a long way since Full House and just about have their hands in everything from clothes-movies.

Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen are set to launch their jewelry line for Elizabeth and James clothing. In collaboration with CFDA award winning designer Robert Lee Morris to create a collection of accessories to expand their Elizabeth and James clothing line.

According to WWD the line will consist of:

“Silver and brass dagger necklaces, amorphous knuckle rings and edgy earrings,”

The line will be respectfully name “Robert Lee Morris For Elizabeth and James” and will be launching shortly within the next few months.
