"Those pint-sized style agitators, Mary-Kate and Ashley, have a brand new book hitting shelves next week (I just scored an advanced copy and I have to say, it rivals Mary Higgins Clark for under-the-covers-with-a-flashlight worthiness), and they&amp;#x27;re hoping a little personal appearance will help drum up sales. Fashionista is reporting that the twins will be at the Barnes and Noble in Union Square next Tuesday, October 28 to... give a little reading from Influence. Considering the book is chock full of interviews with such style luminaries as Karl Lagerfeld, Christian Louboutin, and Diane Von Furstenberg, I can&amp;#x27;t wait to see which moments they choose to highlight. Perhaps this little tidbit from an interview with Chanel&amp;#x27;s numero uno? Karl Lagerfeld: I hate all these tall women. They are all giants! Mary-Kate Olsen: If only I were a little taller &amp;amp;#8212; that would make me happy! KL: You are one meter fifty-one. You are taller than that? Ashley Olsen: We&amp;#x27;re five feet and one inch. KL: Oh, I thought my office told me that you were four-foot eight or something. Not that it matters. What you need is a face. If you have a face you don&amp;#x27;t need height or a voice. Models know this; that&amp;#x27;s why the good ones don&amp;#x27;t need to talk much. If the twins are getting Karl to dish like this, imagine what other juicy bits are in store. So what do you guys think, will you check out their book? And what do you think its publishing says about the larger picture of their own influence on fashion? What will Mary-Kate and Ashley&amp;#x27;s style legacy be?
