HOW, how does Ashley Olsen [1] pull off such a typical '90s mom outfit [2] — gray tailored slacks, an oversize striped button-down, and a wool sweater tied around the waist — with such prowess [3]? Ashley was just wearing basics when she stepped out near her office in NYC, but the way they came together was effortless and smart. To take the look to the extreme, Ashley added a paisley-print scarf that looked like it could've been wrapped around Mom's fine china, and then there was the unexpected element of cool: her mod-shaped shades.
But it was Ashley's stark white loafers [4] ($995) from her own label, The Row, that screamed "grandma," just because, well, they're flat and functional, logo-less, nonflashy, and definitely darn comfortable. The dad sneaker is in [5], so why not make grandma slippers happen? Ahead, zoom in on Ashley's footwear, then shop her exact pair along with plenty of similar options for some easy street style [6].
