Just after US Elle used Mary Kate Olsen for its July cover, British Elle recycled the twin for its September 2008 cover. Reminds us of the time hot Madonna does covers of both American and British Elle for May.

From interview:

On what inspires her sense of style…

I love playing dress up. I get inspired by old films, weird things. It could just be the person sitting across from me or it could be a full Victorian costume”

On media reaction to her clothing…

What I find odd though is that a weekly [magazine] will come out describing my outfit as a fashion disaster, while the fashion industry actually respects what I wear.”

On her and Ashley’s clothing labels…

I think more of my energy goes in to Elizabeth and James, [The Row is] Ashley’s baby.”

Karl Lagerfeld about Mary Kate Olsen:

I love a tiny woman in Chanel. Coco herself was tiny, so you don’t need to be a giant to look good in these [designs]. I like the way Mary-Kate is mixing Chanel with other things. Life is not a fashion show, and I find a total designer look boring.’

This is photoshoot video:

Jessica Simpson does too her magazine cover for British Elle. Elle magazine availed of her cover-girl prowess for their September 2008 issue. As always, Jessica looks wonderful thanks to the help of at least 10 graphics artists.

Jessica Simpson said about the period immediately following her 2005 split from ex-husband Nick Lachey.
She said:

I was going through a lot of pain. I didn’t try anything to change my life other than dating different types of guys and conforming to their worlds. I thought I had to be artsier, more intellectual. Most of the guys I dated were captivated by my heart, but they had different ways of trying to get to me. Tony understands me. He appreciates my talent. He’s the first person I’ve spiritually connected with.”
