    Elizabeth Olsen's style credentials have climbed just as fast as her Hollywood star status. See her meteoric rise to fashion fame, landing herself firmly on our fashion-crush list.

    Elizabeth Olsen's style is one we've been coveting since she burst onto the indie film scene.

    The younger Olsen quickly established herself as having her own low key, but effortlessly cool style - far removed from her pint-sized, fashion designer sisters - and it's her laidback LA looks that we love best.

    Well-beaten ankle boots, oversized blazers and very wearable plain grey tees, are all part of her signature dressed-down look.

    Chart her rise to Hollywood's favourite new fashion darling, from red carpet designers to cultured outings in her best black ankle boots.
