sweet william: i look like winter cause it feels like winter. 326.

i look like winter cause it feels like winter. 326.

wearing:

shirt - ezekiel

skirt - old navy

jacket - gap

boots - piperlime

necklace - me!

ring - gift

as it gets closer and closer to SWAPmaine, my room keeps getting messier and messier. my keep and swap piles keep mixing together and i am afraid to touch it. i am starting to feel like i have no clothes! so getting dressed when you are running late for work is getting much harder. i did not want to feel too business-y, but wanted to wear some sort of jacket, so i threw on a slouchy tee and called it good. i liked this look and i especially like how my beautifully handcrafted necklaces brings the whole thing together. oh and you should check out my very cool nails. they were done today by carole at akari, who is an amazing nail tech!

In a world inundated by high-end and over-priced glamour and fashion, Ashley Jordan has successfully created a niche in the creative fashion industry that allows for anyone looking to shop on a dime look like a million bucks.

Starting originally as a thirty-day photo diary where Ashley challenged herself not to wear the same outfit more than once for a month without buying anything new, Sweet William has since emerged into a fashion and creative sounding board for Ashley to discuss new and old trends, ideas for piecing together used clothes for newer outfits, and tips for shopping for the look you want at a price you can afford.

The idea for Sweet William, the name, came primarily from the flower that is its name sake. But Ashley points out that the flower also draws a lot of parallels to her influence and style when it comes to design, noting that Sweet William represents organic, change, growth, and natural in both name and in design. In addition, Ashley says that above all else, the biggest inspiration for the name Sweet William comes from her grandfather, William, whom she admired greatly and was significantly influenced by.
