je ne sais quoi

i was sorting through a friend's old pile of magazines (dating back to 2006, she's a pack rat like me!) and i came across an issue of marie claire with ashley olson as the cover girl. i think the olson twins are two intriguing people. maybe it's because i grew up watching them grow up, or maybe it's their devil-may-care attitude when it comes to fashion and business, or maybe its just their inaccessibility to the public. i'm not sure but i've always thought that they had fascinating interests when it comes to the arts and life in general. these are pictures from her photo shoot and embody the balancing perspective she has, it's the contrast that gives her that something extra.


the glamorous & the industrial


the feminine & the masculine


the demure & the provocative


what sets her apart is her attention to detail. the article mentions that ashley olson carries her business cards in a vintage cigarette holder, which i thought was tres chic. it's the little things that count. i'm keeping my eye out for the perfect one.
