Posted In Ashley Olsen| Mary-Kate Olsen on December 30th, 2009
You guys, I’m kind of concerned for my sanity. I think I’ve spent too much time looking at paparazzi photos and contemplating their composition, because I no longer have any difficulty telling the difference between Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen. Even when their hair color is the same, and they both look like they may have showered recently. I can still tell. And it scares me.
This time, at the New York premiere of Nine, a movie whose subject matter I am unable to ascertain based on the commercials for it, Mary-Kate is standing on the left and Ashley is on the right. And they’re looking like only the Olsen twins do, which is to say they look like really rich crazy people, but they’re both carrying great handbags. Mary-Kate has a stunning cobalt Maia N. Crocodile Clutch and Ashley has an apparently vintage black Hermes Kelly Bag of which she has seemed quite fond lately. Ashley is also wearing some shoes of note (and wearing a jacket that reminds me of a costume that Lady Gaga wore in concert when I saw her a few days ago) – they’re by Manolo Blahnik.
Bag’s Ashley’s Hermes Style via Hermes!

I guess reruns of Full House are paying these girls pretty well. I actually kind of like these outfits- okay, except for the furry jacket.

AHHH I still can’t really tell them apart. I was so sure Ashley’s the one on the left!
And that’s one great purse!

Ashley is definitely on the left, therefore, MK is on the right.

Nope, it’s MK on the left and Ashley on the right. Coolspotters identified them the same way: http://coolspotters.com/handbags/maia-n-ashley-crocodile-clutch/and/actresses/mary-kate-olsen#medium-251807
Plus, Ashley has been the one wearing the vintage Kelly lately. The way I tell the difference, though, is MK’s mouth. She always smiles the exact same way.

InStyle also identified them as MK on the left and Ashley on the right: http://www.instyle.com/instyle/celebrities/lotdpopup/0,,20332340_20719356,00.html
Trust me, y’all, I’m pretty brilliant at telling them apart.
