So there’s a demarcation line between their wardrobes? “Hmm,” says Smashley. “There’s hers, there’s mine. And a huge ‘maybe’ pile.”

“Dualstar started when we were six, said Ashley. And we had a collection with Walmart at twelve, which was the upper tier of the tween market.

  1. Love love love the Olsen twins. I grew up with them, as they grew up on Full House. I wore those clothes they sold at Wal-Mart. I followed everything! They are such an inspiration. Completely abnormal childhood, but they are as huge as those thoughtss they have!
