a french homage


I have a guest post up on Time Enough For Drums in which I emulate one of my favorite French icons: Madeline. Go take a peek to see more photos!

sweethearts

Nicole's fantastic sparkle manicure.

Nicole's dog Clementine was, appropriately, in heat.

Champagne!

Francesca's new Rachel Comey heels... toooo good!

I want to keep Jen and Annalise in my pocket.

Mary was wearing the prettiest pink dress...

Francesca and Annalise surprised Nicole with a heart-shaped pipe cleaner bra... we got pretty crafty!


I'm so happy to be friends with ladies who enjoy holiday theme parties as much as I do!

happy valentine's day



A silly but sweet little video from Nicole's valentine party, complete with romantic slow dancing, pipe cleaner heart crowns, and lots of champagne. This was the first video I've ever made so don't judge too harshly... I figure the Beach Boys make up for any wonky editing, right? I also have many photos from the party that I will post soon. Hope you all have a lovely Valentine's Day!

new in the shop






There will be even more things listed early next week. As for the first dress in the last post (which many of you emailed me about!), Francesca already snagged it. I will leave you with an adorable video featuring Emily of Golden Fur Vintage trying on a bunch of lovely vintage...

shop preview fun times!


I persuaded my lovely girlfriend Lauren to model again for me (the promise of cocktails and dinner did the trick!) and together we went through a huge stack of vintage and photographed each other on my (sunny!) roof. It was super windy (see crazy hair above) but we were too busy laughing and posing silly to care. All of these amazing pieces will be in the Fancy Fine Shop this week! If you absolutely cannot wait and need to find out about something before it goes up, please email me at hi@ashleyording.com and I'll try to put out the fire in your vintage loving heart.
