Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have helped usher in the return of the jelly sandals trend with their luxury brand The Row’s viral netted PVC shoe. They’re also responsible for kickstarting another controversial shoe phenomenon: The Row's $890 luxe leather City flip-flops ignited a fashion-first approach to the age-old thong sandal. And Ashley, for one, is bringing her best flip-flops (i.e. those produced by her own fashion house) with her into autumn.
The Olsen twin was photographed this week leaving dinner at New York City's BondST in a classic Olsen twin outfit that is an undeniable head-scratcher: an ankle-length black coat with a V-neck and buttons down the front, a stereotypically large black-and-grey checkered plaid scarf draped over one shoulder, sunglasses worn at night, a small nondescript black clutch from The Row in one hand, and her black flip-flops, also from The Row.
