Ash Leon is a beautiful black woman with an even more colorful personality. Her tweets will have you thinking she’s a full-time comedian while her outfit selections will have you searching Fashion Nova to find her fit. We had the privilege to ask the amazing Ash Leon 10 random style questions to get her thoughts on the never ending Nike vs Adidas debate as well as her favorite lazy day outfit.
Ash: Historically, I’ve always been a “checks ova stripes” kinda shorty but I do enjoy Adidas’, now, iconic collabs and playful colorways.
Favorite lazy day outfit?
Ash: What is the season? Am I leaving the house? Have my legs been shaved in the last 36 hours? These things matter. Since it’s brick in NYC right now, I love a textured co-ord sweatsuit (except velvet, I just think it’s overdone in co-ords) with hightops and the thickest of knit socks. Baby hairs put to schleep. 24k gold pieced from head-to-toe. I’m always verrry “Around the Way Girl” about the situation.
Your favorite best dressed celebrity is….?
Ash: Robyn Rihanna Fenty, until someone shows me the range, longevity, originality, and effortlessness exhibited elsewhere.
What makes a good outfit?
Ash: The person that carriers the outfit and does not let the outfit carry them.
Describe your style in one word?
Ash: I can’t think of one word so Ima use one moment in fashion history:
Are female sneakerheads lame?
Ash: Nah, not at all. I once considered myself a sneakerhead, spending money (that I had no business spending) on drops like the Jeremy Scott x Adidas 2.0 Wings, Jordan retros and originals, and even SUPRAs during my very serious Lupe Fiasco phase in middle and high school. I need to find them Wings though…
Forever 21 …..?
Ash: has served its purpose and no longer has a purpose to serve in 2020.
PacSun or Tillys?
Ash: I’ve never purchased from either nor am I too familiar with their organizational branding, but Ima say PacSun because I almost bought the Kith x Tommy Hilfiger Expedition Puffer Pullover from there once–I found it cheaper elsewhere.
Thongs or G-Strings?
Ash: Thongs for adaptability but a silk G-string has always afforded me the most noteworthy (and note-hitting) nights.
Fashion is …..?
Ash: Now, style is forever (or whatevuh Yves Saint-Laurent said) ♦
