In honor of their birthday, look back at their striking styles
1991
Pretty in pastels! The Olsens began acting on Full House in 1987 at the age of 9 months!
1998
The twins - here matching on the red carpet - started a fashion and accessories line sold through Wal-Mart store nationwide in 2000.
2002
At the age of 17, their reported net worth was $150 million each.
2004
"If you look at pictures of the two of us walking down the street, you know we're not trying to look like sex symbols," says Ashley of their style.
2005
"I know when she's hurting, I know when she's going through something. I know when she's happy - whether I'm with her or not, I know. We both carry the weight of each other," says Ashley of her twin.
2005
Favorite designers? Ashley loves Marc Jacobs, Stella McCartney and Calvin Klein while Mary-Kate favors Balenciaga, YSL and Givenchy.
2006
"I honestly don't know why we started dressing like that," says Ashley of the boho trend. The same year, Ashley interns with Zac Posen and launches a high-end t-shirt collection called The Row.
2007
"You're either on the worst dressed list or you've started a fashion trend," says Mary-Kate, who starts co-designing items for The Row which expands to include tunics and leggings. The twins also launch a contemporary sportswear line called Elizabeth & James.
2008
"I wear weird things sometimes. I like to drink coffee. Neither of these things have anything to do with who I am. I am a bit kooky, I am a bit wacky, and that's how my friends know me," says Mary-Kate.
2008
"We're extremely close... It's like talking about friends. You're different than your best friend; you're two completely different people," says Ashley.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Turn 22 – at Bonnaroo!
It may be Friday the 13th, but it's a happy day for Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen: They celebrate their 22nd birthday today.
Yes, it's been more than 21 years since the twins first became stars – the California natives began sharing the role of Michelle Tanner on Full House before their first birthday.
According to local news reports, the Olsens have been spotted in Nashville on their way to the Bonnaroo music festival in Manchester, Tenn. The lineup for the four-day festival includes performances by Kanye West, Metallica and Willie Nelson.
It'll be a far cry from their last birthday: The multimillionaire moguls hosted a quiet family dinner party at Hollywood's Chateau Marmont that included their sister Lizzie, 20, and brother Trent, 24.
