Lastly, I am head over heels for this young designer. California native, Ashley Ann, launched her contemporary collection in 2008 and has been making major progress. She takes inspiration from Vintage Old Hollywood and transforms it into chic must-haves that would work in any fashion conscience young woman. With a focus on the modern woman and the current state of the economy, her philosophy is music to my ears. “I’m more focused on fit than trends. I don’t want to design disposable fashion.”
