Ashley’s retiring from acting

At the ripe age of 22 Ashley Olsen has claimed that she’s retiring from acting to concentrate solely on the fashion industry.
She tells VMAN magazine “I’ve been transitioning from acting as a kid to doing something that I’m choosing for myself — to be part of the fashion industry. That’s what I want for my future. It has nothing to do with my past, nothing to do with anyone else’s agenda. And I followed my heart the whole way.”
Ashley runs two labels, The Row and Elizabeth and James, with her sister as a rather silent partner. Ashley says that Mary-Kate wants to continue focusing on acting, so she leaves the daily business and details to Ashley. Well, Ashley certainly has an eye for fashion, that’s for sure.
