Let's play the Olsen Game: Which twin is which?


One of Style into Action's favourite games is playing "Pick the Olsen twin".

It's simple.
Take any photo of Mary Kate & Ashley & identify which girl is which.

There are physical and behavioural differences between the girls. But as this is a style blog, we should focus on their style differences.

Ashley favours a more classic look with more of a glam element than Mary Kate - both in clothes & accessories.
Mary Kate is wilder with a more extroverted and dishevelled in her look.
So for example, both may be carrying Hermes Kelly bags, but MK's is bashed up & Ashley's is pristine. 
Or Ashley favours a classic lady pump (think Manolo Carolyn sling back) which MK's shoes are platformed or gutsy. 

Even if you dislike the Olsens - this is a good game to play. Why? because it will fine tune your appreciation of style differences and that in turn will help you fine tune the way you project your look to the world. 

Ready to play the game? 

The answers telling you whether Ashley is on the left or the right are on the bottom in tiny print.  I am sure you can then figure out which one is mary Kate.

Here is the final day of my Olsen twin rant....all is now right with the world...order is restored as night follows day....Ashley has gone back to her true self....witness here a couple of very recent New York photos....

cleanly cut suits, Breton striped tees in navy/white....tied back bun hair (or was she having a bad hair day, yikes?)....yes, our Ashley is back....know thyself





and the test of tests....gowns at the 2011 Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Gala.....

voila the Mary-Kate...boho chic (thats an interesting combination of words!)....dress by Givenchy, shoes by Nicholas Kirkwood & jewelry Van Cleef & Arpels.



and voila the Ashley....in vintage Christian Dior Couture.....back on track.....phew....
