Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen will be releasing a coffee table book titled Influence this Fall.
Ashley says the book will feature “the most interesting, challenging, creative people we know — the ones who helped pave the way for us and our generation.”
“Ashley and I interviewed the people who have inspired us, with the hope that they will inspire and teach others,” Mary-Kate explains of the project.
I must have this book! Available for pre-order here.
Happy Birthday big sis. I hope you have a most wonderful 28th year. I love you :)

Tuesday night while Pete and I were wondering around the Shops in Las Vegas, we strolled into Barneys and to our surprise and delight there was a book signing party for Simon Doonon's new book Eccentric Glamour!
A little bit about the book:
In his fourth book Simon Doonan offers a defense against the tidal wave of slutty dressing and porno-chic which has been engulfing us since the arrival of Paris Hilton, Anna Nicole Smith, may she rest in peace, and Tara Reid.
Simon Doonan believes that eccentric glamour - a unique personal style - is every woman's birthright. Constructing and designing a glamorously eccentric you means understanding and magnifying the core of your individuality. While the typical TV boobs 'n' botox make-overs force everywoman to look the same - see The Real Housewives of Orange County - the transformations which he strives to provoke in this book are the very opposite.
Developing a glamorously eccentric style involves revealing and magnifying everything which is unique and idiosyncratic about you.
Conformity is the only crime and dressing down is the only faux-pas.
SAY NO TO HO!....and yes to ECCENTRIC GLAMOUR!
Tip Top Kitchen & Cocktails has quickly become my favorite restaurant in Columbus! It's friendly, has a great patio, gives a discount and $1 PBRs to everyone that rides their bike, and has the most amazing food! (You MUST try the Pot Roast Sandwich!)
Last night me Pete, Erica and Conroy rode our bikes there for dinner and we disovered yet another reason to love Tiptop = bike-generated-movie night!! They have a bike that powers a movie they project on a big screen on the patio. People take turns riding this stationary bike and everyone gets to enjoy a movie! Last night we had the pleasure of watching "Better Off Dead" while we ate.
