I don’t make the fashion rules; the Olsen twins do. Therefore, if Ashley Olsen says socks and sandals are a go, so be it. Your dad was right all along.
In a rare paparazzi sighting, Olsen was caught hurrying along the New York City streets, Starbucks cup in hand, wearing layers of baggy, understated basics—a style that has become her (and her sister’s) signature. And she wore slide sandals, winterized with white tube socks. Dadcore is alive and well, baby.

But it’s not just Mary-Kate and Ashley. Jennifer Lawrence, Gigi Hadid, and others have all embraced socks with sandals, while more general borrowed-from-the-dads styles have been championed by Hailey Bieber, Emily Ratajkowski, and more.
Olsen’s ensemble also included a loose navy coat, a turtleneck, wide-leg jeans, and a slouchy beanie. A statement ring and crocodile bag added just a touch of glamour.
Ashley Olsen, along with Mary-Kate, is a CFDA-award-winning designer behind The Row, which remains the premier destination for quiet luxury among New York City It girlies, rich moms, and Jennifer Lawrence. The brand is known for its impeccably crafted, mostly shapeless, luxury clothing and accessories that are meant to long outlast seasonal trends.
