Mary Kate





photos: Terry Richardson

When I was 9 or 10 I wrote a fan letter to the character "Michelle" on the T.V. show Full House. She sent me back a black and white photo-postcard with her name on it. It was a picture of either Ashley or Mary Kate (remember Michelle was only one person!) holding a couple of puppies when she was maybe three years old. I still have it somewhere....I will have to search for it so I can post it! Anyways, who knew the pint-sized twins that played "Michelle" and uttered "you got it dude!"almost every episode on Full House would grow up to be such beautiful and successful clothing designers and business women, not to mention style icons? I found some candid shots of one half of the empire that is The Olsen's, Mary Kate, that I thought I'd share with you.

I never liked her when she was still on Full House, but after the eating disorder ordeal, I've softened up with her...NOW, I'm a dotting fan!

What a cute story!! I ALMOST sent a love letter to Leonardo DiCaprio when I was 12, saying how I knew that everyone else said they were in love with him, but that I ACTUALLY was in love with him. Hahah... I should have sent it, maybe I would have gotten a postcard back! You should definitely look for that little token from MK&A. Cute photos. She's definitely the kind of girl that can make those glasses cute!!

I used to love Full House so much. It's pretty cool how the 2 twins played one character. They have such great style now, and I'm glad they haven't really crashed and burned like other child stars.

MK & Ashley Olsen are brilliant. I remember I used to be obsessed with the programme Two of a Kind...it was the highlight of my day when I was a child.haha.:)SarahD

I LOVED Full House! If you had told me back then little Michelle would be a pair of style icons, I would have laughed. So crazy how things change!
