white tees, please!

it's time. time that i address the age old question of "WHERE DID YOU GET THAT LOW CUT WHITE TEE?!?!?!" i try to answer every question and i tag what i'm wearing on instagram, but i felt like i needed to really dig into the low cut white tee, since it's my #1 wardrobe staple. the one i am wearing in these pics, and that i wear most often in life, is by daftbird. its by far the lowest neckline i've found, and i've worn this one to death-----i love it in all its dingy state so much. you can buy this exact one here. i also love the novella royale muse tank (i love a simple vneck and mary makes a damn good one.) lna kills the white tee (and the stripe tee, and the ripped tee, i could go on.) and i also love brandy melville believe it or not-----in all their messy stacks you can find a damn good low cut tank. the trick is-----STRETCH that shit out!!! stretch the living daylights out of it. pull on it until you hear things that don't sound quite right, things are ripping, seams are coming apart a bit, let the little holes you create grow and customize that shit into the perfect bra showing super low neck tee. k?! hope this helps. that's all my secrets right thurr. xx

sooooooo if you're still checking my blog (hi grandma!) you might be wondering…..what the hell is ashley doing and why the hell doesn't she ever post?? i mean, i agree. i've been working so damn much but thats no excuse! i actually feel super sad that i haven't been blogging……as much as i feel like a tool when i'm getting my photo taken (which is all the time----the feeling like a tool part) and ESPECIALLY when a passerby sees the blogging in action (the most embarrassing)-----thats also no excuse! the moral of this story is that i am gonna try my hardest to give ye ole purse 'n boots some love, cause i been doin' this too long to just give up! zoey was also out of town for like 2 months so i blame her for my blahg neglect. cause lets be honest, if grossman wasn't behind the lens there wouldn't be a single cool picture of me. i hereby declare i am making an effort to update this bitch more often than once a month. wish me luck!

how distraught do i look in that last pic? that's how i feel right now this second. cause its monday. and monday sucks the big one. or the little one, whatever, you get the point! who decided that we should only have 2 days off and then work 5? how is that even?! i mean its different for everyone but ideally i would work 4 days and have 3 off. or never work again. that sounds real nice too. would i get bored? maybe? but i would get a muthafuckin' hobby and figure it out real quick. ok ok clothes. lets talk clothes. this is my ALL TIME favorite tee ever----i got it years ago-----its by a company called daftbird-----i have stretched it out to shit and basically my entire bra hangs out but isn't that the point?! other than that everything else is zara, yo. speaking of, i just drunkenly placed an order last night on a credit card. like i just charged that shit. deal with it later. will share my spoils soon! xx
