Ashley Olsen is Under The Influence

Ashley Olsen picks up some drinks at Starbucks with a friend while she wears a long black coat in the warm summer in New York City on Thursday.

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen have put a book together that will be released in October. The book is entitled Influence, for which they interviewed 20 people, and wrote brief essays about each other.

In each interview, the Olsen twins explore what inspires the interviewee and the interviewee, in turn, explains how they became themselves. The interviewees include: Karl Lagerfeld, Diane Von Furstenburg, John Galliano and Christian Louboutin, among others.

When the book comes out on October 28th, they will be holding a book signing that afternoon at the Barnes and Noble store in Union Square in New York City.
