If you’re looking for a fun, flirty accessory that you won’t see on the arms of every other fashionista look no further than Ashard Richley.
The Texas-based brand was born when in 2009, former B&D and Coach designer Ashley Burghardt decided she could go it alone. Her co-conspirator and then-fiancé Richard admitted he had no fashion experience and questionable taste, so he’d simply have to trust her. If the brand’s current crop of bags is anything to go by, it seems the gamble paid off.
It seems Ashley learned a thing or two in her tenures at these fashion houses. The feminine ruffles and delicate studding we see on many Ashard Richley bags are particularly reminiscent of many Be & D designs.
Not that the bags are mere imitators. The row of ruffles on the Ashtyn turns this messenger into something flirty and fun. The asymmetrical flap and flurry of studs makes the Aziza shoulder bag feel very rock and roll.
If you’re considering adding an Ashard Richley bag to your collection the prices should help seal the deal. All the purses currently available are priced at less than $100! They’re available from selected American boutiques and the Ashard Richley website.
