Let me set one thing straight first: I'm obsessed with Revenge. I tend to be very picky when it comes to TV shows I watch, so for me to become this engrossed in something, it has to be really good. And this story of betrayal, hatred and revenge is all sorts of amazing.
Of course, it wouldn't be me if, while biting my nails from nervousness and rooting for Emily Thorne, the ultimate revenger (always dressed impeccably, bien sûr), I wasn't checking out the fashion and home décor on the set. And while it's Emily who has the best lines and the best revenge strategies, it's undoubtedly Ashley Davenport, the party planner turned political aide, who has the best and the most enviable closet.
Hampton's resident social climber, and my favorite bad girl to grace the small screen ever since Blair Waldorf put her headbands away, Ashley is hands down the best dressed and the most fashion forward character on the show. Her apparitions always make for a great style inspiration. Her supply of figure-hugging or skater dresses, flowy cupcake skirts, silk blouses, structured bags and chic pencil skirts seems to be endless. And don't even get me started on that hair of hers. Jealousy doesn't even begin to describe how I feel about it. See the first photo below? That's the kind of hair I've always dreamed of having. Enough said.
Oh, and have I mentioned that Ashley Madekwe, the utterly beautiful and talented young lady who impersonates Miss Davenport on the screen, is a successful fellow fashion blogger herself? The girl is all kinds of fabulous, mark my words!

Oh, I'm addicted to Revenge! I have to admit though that Ashley's style doesn't really "speak" to me at all - it's all too deliberate, too put together, and too serious. Then again, that's what you probably have to be in her position... ;-)
ReplyDeletePRETTY GREAT!!!
ReplyDeleteShe really does look great in anything, I love her blog. I'm addicted to 'Revenge' too!! Ahhh I can't get enough of it. There's so many Brits in that show which is cool!

I loved Revenge since the first day, it's so great!!! <3
ReplyDeleteAnd while I will admit that Ash's style is impecable, I like Charlotte's a lot more, well she's more my style.
Plus I don't really like Ash's character, I mean, I love a bad girl as much as the next person, but I find she's a little unconsistent, she's not bad, she's not good either, I don't know..., hahaha!!

Hi Ivana! Love her looks too! She is always so beautiful and classy!! A superb style she got!! In love with your finds!! Kisses dear and have a good evening! xo
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, her style is fantastic! I don't really watch Revenge (or...any TV shows...at all...) but I always love to see people talk about the style in them. I really love that she wears flowy skirts, especially. And that Temperley top is absolutely lovely.

I love her style! I only wish I could wear heels that high. I think I might fall off of them :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the Roland Mouret pencil skirt.
I actually worked on Revenge a couple of times and always admired their wardrobe! I think it's super cool that she has a blog too!

Great post Ivana! I am obsessed with Revenge too! I eagerly await every new episode and secretly hope for an Emily and Daniel reunion (how handsome is he!) Ashley does have beautiful and very sophisticated style, she plays her part really well with an exceptional wardrobe to match. Love the orange blazer and dress. Thanks for sharing your fashion opinions on my last post :) I also wonder about the use of wigs or extensions, because no one's hair would still be healthy after that many colorings and chemical treatments.
ReplyDeleteShe is so pretty, as are your picks! Great inspiration :)
ReplyDeleteHi Ivana, what's new? I love Ashley too. I stumbled upon her blog a while ago and never knew she's an actress.

I have to admit that I've never seen "Revenge," but I am in love with the clothes you picked, especially that gorgeous skirt and the coral blazer! Also, I would love to have hair like that, too. SO pretty.
ReplyDeleteOooh I love this show, so good!! I love her outfit in the middle, the green is super!! I hope you have a fab weekend doll xx
ReplyDeleteI've never really watched this show but the commercials always look so riveting. I am a fan of Ashley Madekwe's blog and her impeccable sense of style and it certainly looks like that carries over to her character's wardrobe on the show as well. I love all the outfits you show her in - so tailored and refined.
ReplyDeleteTotally enjoyed our G-chat yesterday! Enjoy your weekend dear Ivana!

What a great post, Ivana, on Ashley's style, it's so chic ... I too am a huge fan of Revenge! And I too can't even count the amount of times I've hit the pause button and backed up to drool over the decor of Grayson Manor! It's inspired a few of the decisions I'm making in my own home's decor since I'm going for a glam beach house style ... like all the white mouldings in the entryway ... {my poor husband, more DIY's in store} haha! Have a wonderful weekend, sweets! xo ~S
