sweet william: that seventies show.

that seventies show.

wearing:

sweater - new york & co

pants - homemade (swap maine)

shoes, hat, & bag - urban outfitters

these pants were a bit of gamble when i took them from swap maine. i knew someone had made them, but they looked so cool and were exactly what i was looking for: high waisted, wide legged, super soft denim, and lightweight. lucky for me, they fit. i do want to take them up a little in the length, but overall, were great. when it is not 85 degrees out, this is a great outfit for a sunday. comfortable, but still fashionable.

Love them, you got such awesome stuff from SWAP maine! I was thinking of you a few days ago, I was in Goodwill and found some jeans I am going to make into cutoffs. Someday I want to go goodwill hunting with you, I dont really have any friends that are up for the challenge and I'd like to go with someone a day who does it a lot!

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.
