Denim Shorts & Belt: Vintage. T.Shirt & Coat: TopShop.
Bag: Mulberry. Shoes: Miu Miu. Sunglasses: Kiss.
The weather was so nice today that I got to wear one of my ‘lighter’ coats. I bought this one over 5 years ago and it’s still one of my favorite pieces. I don’t keep it with my everyday clothes so when ever I come across it, it’s always a nice surprise.
Me and the boy will be off to LA soon. We’re going for a couple of months to do some meetings and auditions. I looooove being in LA! I’m already planning when I will be hitting the vintage markets…. For some reason LA has THE best vintage! I plan to stock up on this trip.
p.s I want to do a f.a.q post… Ask anything you want to know by commenting on this post or by sending an email to ringmybellblog@gmail.com and I’ll answer in the next post π

Lulu says
Oooh, love questions π I have a few actually.
1. What is your favourite part you've played?
2. I quite like Bambi's style. Do you choose your own wardrobe on Secret Diary of a Call Girl, or have anything to say about what your character wears?
3. How many pairs of shoes do you own?
Becca Lea says

I love the Mui Mui shoes..chunky heels are the best

Hii ashley! Which MAC lipstick and eyeliner do you currently use?I am not happy with the eye pencil I use and would love to get a red lipstick for the first time, as I am 20 and never was bold about that before. As there are types of MAC lipsticks for red which one could u suggest? And eyeliner? I would be grateful for your help and hope to see u in a tv show soon!

Hey!
Can you tell about the progress to become an actress? Like, what did you do when you first started, do you have an agent etc..

I would love to know what your favourite jeans and shoes are?
Kim says
Lovely, your style is the best :)!
Ok I have some questions (hope they're not too weird or technical, but I guess these are just some things that I think about)
1. Isn't it a hassle when you move to different places all the time? Where do you keep your London stuff? What about all the administration and things like that? How about finding a place to live each time? (I'm just really wondering :))
2. What's the best part about being an actress?
3. The worst?
These are the first three that I can think of, can't wait to see your L.A. adventures!

emily//thelesserpanda says
I like the combination of patterns in your outfit. I can think of a couple questions right off the bat:
1) What cities have you lived?
2) What 5 places do you want to travel to next?
3) What are you favorite shops in the states? (LA, NY, Chicago?)
4) What's your favorite food?
Can't wait to see your answers!

Hey Ashley!
I really enjoy reading your blog and I remember you mentioning in a post (I think a skin routine one) that you used to have bad skin when you were younger. How old were you when it 'stopped'? I'm 19 just now and my skin's getting me down… I'm turning 20 this year and hoping that will mean that my skin will miraculously be free from spots!
Is there anything you can recommend?
Kirstin Marie says
Love your outfit, beautiful photos! That is a great jacket! Have a fun time in L.A.!

I have a similar coat to this, which I've kept in the back of my closet for years. I might have to bring it back out, seeing how cool you rock it in these pics. Love the look.

What piece of clothing can you not live with out?
What are you looking to buy for SS11?

Hey π
Great outfit!
I have a few questions;
1) My brother is 15 and REALLY wants to be an actor, and I genuinely believe (without being naive or biased) that he has the look and the talent it takes to make it big. Do you have any tips for him? How did you start out? I'd love ANYTHING that might help him jump start his career.
2) How tall are you?
3) This isn't really a question, but I really love your style, and it would be great if you could do a post of your fashion basics and how you build an outfit from certain items. Almost like a 'how to wear high waisted jeans' or 'how to layer an outfit' in your style. I'm trying to work out what my wardrobe is missing :/
Thanks again,
Love Chloe

Mrs R says
Loving the Miu Miu's <3
only a few questions…
1. Where are you favourite places to shop in London?
2. Where do you get your hair done? I'm mixed race too and sometimes I find it tricky to find someone who can handle my barnet either curly or straight !!
3. Who/what do you use as fashion inspiration?
All the best in LA π
jenjen says
lovely post! im abit of a fan of the tights and jean shorts combo.

what things couldnt you live without?
how did you meet the boy?

abettersarah011 says
Hello!
I love your everday looks and you always look gorgeous. I was just wondering if, being in 'show business', obviously there is a certain amount of pressure on the way you look. How much pressure do you feel from producers, agents and the general public to look good? aka maintain your weight, spend money on hair etc.
Also, what's your favourite place to eat (lunch/brunch) in London, i'll be there for lunch in the next week and want to sit somewhere nice to eat!
Thankyou and keep creating GORGEOUS outfits! Sarah x
Jessica says
i directly go here after saw you on denimology.
