A long time fan of Sarah Slean, Ashley has offered to donate some pieces for her next tour, dubbed Recessionista! Ms. Slean will have all the pieces she wears throughout the tour made by local designers from recycled materials, and Ashley's pieces fit right in with this sensibility! Stay tuned for links to media and Sarah Slean website mentions!

Recently, Ashley was asked to donate a piece to a fundraiser for Lake Ontario Waterkeeper, a non-profit organization based out of Toronto. Happy to donate to this worthy cause, Ashley gave over a small rusty washer necklace and a matching ring. She was thrilled to hear that there was a bit of a bidding war for her pieces! Very exciting!

Ashley's mesh headpieces have been used for another fashion show, this time at the 2009 Booklover's Ball, a gala fundraiser event held to support the Toronto Public Library. This is a perfect cause for Ashley to support, as she holds a Literature degree from the University of Toronto and is a passionate reader. Photographs to come.

Ashley collaborated with Michelle Turpin of Karamea to produce a line of jewellery for the runway debut of her Fall collection at L'Oreal Fashion Week in Toronto! Karamea's Spring collection is inspired by looking into gardens through wrought iron fences; Michelle's pieces feature large x-ray photographed floral prints and Ashley's jewellery invoked the fences through which you glimpse such beauty. See Collaborations for an example of the work.
