The Olsens Are At It Again

Fashion phenoms Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are at it again. This time they are expanding their high end clothing line Elizabeth and James to include a collection of jewelry, collaborating with 2007 CFDA Lifetime Achievement award winner Robert Lee Morris.

As a jewelry designer and sculptor, Morris has serious credibility in the fashion world. His work has been featured in the pages of Vogue since the mid-1970s, and during his career he has collaborated with the likes of Karl Lagerfeld, Calvin Klein, Donna Karan and Michael Kors to name a few. Adding MK and Ash to his repertoire seems like a match made in fashion heaven. Dubbed Robert Morris for Elizabeth and James, pieces from the line are rumored to be edgy, including dagger necklaces, silver and brass earrings and huge knuckle rings. From a designer that has previously drawn inspiration from Andy Warhol we expect nothing less than serious high fashion fabulousness.

Liz was lucky enough to meet the fab duo at Balenciaga spring/summer 2007, where she took this picture of them backstage once the show wrapped up.

The collection will eventually be available on Morris's self named website.

#1 Two-Tone Criss Cross Bangle, $1500, The Mandala Collection by R.L.M.
#2 Dagger Necklace $625, The Charms Collection by R.L.M.
#3 A Warhol Pendant by R.L.M.
