New episode!! This is a great one. Emma becomes a woman and Ashley grows tired of Jimmy. First Ash wears, what is this? a duster sweater thing? with a matching blue top and khaki pants. I can practically feel the physical discomfort of wearing khakis as I look at this. She embarks on her school day with her old faithfuls too – the half-ponytail and the cross body bag. The next day, as her “I actually hate Jimmy” secret has become known to Toby, she genuinely is dressed suspiciously – like she’s hiding something. She wears a drab hoodie all zipped up to hide her actual outfit. And finally, for our final outfit, the deed has been done. Ashley dumped Jimmy’s ass. She wears a cowl-neck sweater (I love her in red), a headband, and I got you a closeup of her red nails too. And don’t worry, in case you forgot, the breakup didn’t last long. I remember how it feels to suddenly be repulsed by your boyfriend. Thank goodness it’s different when you’re married I guess, because I don’t feel suddenly repulsed by my husband.

Yay, another Ashley episode! (I’m saying “yay” genuinely because I actually do like Ashley – early Ashley, at least.) Her first outfit from top to bottom includes – hair pulled half back, hoop earrings, a red tee with small grommet details around the collar, a black cardigan, and that blue and red maxi skirt. Awesome middle school awkwardness. Next, she smiles sentimentally as her dad talks about getting blown up to her class. She wears a pale blue ribbed turtleneck. Then, suddenly the grade 8 girls trio are on the floor hockey team, never to be spoken of again, (ok ok maybe it’s just PE) and Ash wears a long sleeve, shorts, and knee-high tube socks. And finally, you know this color scheme is symbolic af. Ashley wears all grey to mourn the loss of her father’s heterosexuality. (Haha I know that’s not actually why she’s upset, but I couldn’t resist.)

This is the episode where the subplot is that Ashley is reading the announcements and Liberty wants to try her hand at it. As always, and like many, Ashley is wearing this outfit that seems like it looks kinda good but it also looks kinda awkward. Which I’m sure most of us did at this age when styling ourselves with what we had. So what she’s got on is some kind of ribbed deep-v polo kinda thing in blue, over a v-neck white tee. She accessorizes with hoops and a 90s lookin necklace.

Welcome to the next episode – The Mating Game! As you may remember, this is the episode where Ashley and Jimmy plan to do the deed, and as fate would have it, we get to kick things off with Ashley herself! First, she wears a headband, hoops, a white v-neck tee, and a random cross necklace. Then, she’s got a dark red tank, grey pants, more hoops, and she’s beginning to fume as Paige tries to mess with her a little bit after being cast as the Juliet to Jimmy’s Romeo. Then, she wears a pale purple polo, the perfect top to seduce your boyfriend in. But then she dresses up for the real deed – the “best laid plans” if you will. She wears a navy and red tank dress that may very well be Tommy Hilfiger. But of course by the next school day, she’s still a virgin, and wearing that orange camo tank.

Time for a new episode! This one is basically TNG’s version of “The Big Dance” from DJH, so I’m all about it. We kick off with Ashley because her name starts with “A” so she’s first. She’s still sporting that cross-body bag and wears this ORANGE CAMO tank top. And it’s horrible. And I really want to take a moment here. Because I too had a love for colorful camo. In 6th grade, I had a silky, short sleeve, collared, button down BLUE CAMO shirt and it was my favorite. OMG. And it was horrible. So once again I can relate to Ashley on a real level. She also wears this tiny metallic beaded necklace – I’m not quite sure if it’s a ball bearing necklace or just shiny beads. But next, for the dance, you know it was kinda cool to be kinda casual at the school dance, right? Don’t want to look like you’re trying too hard. So Ashley wears a shimmery graphic tee, the same necklace, and hoop earrings. But she fancies it up a notch by wearing her hair half-up with these perfectly 2000s tendrils dangling down to frame her face. Oh and we have some subtle blue eyeshadow there. And finally, the morning of shame, she escorts hungover Terri wearing a periwinkle windbreaker over a blue tee, with hoop earrings, and like, half-pigtails? Peep that cell phone in the front pocket of her bag. Pretty cool, eh?

I am pleased to bring Ashley Kerwin to broomheadz. I just love Ashley, especially in Seasons 1 and 2. I identify so incredibly with her carefully styled yet still awkward hair, intentional yet awkward outfits, and those overplucked eyebrows. Like, I feel that so much. First we start off with Ashley’s long-sleeve long-pants pajamas. Then she waits for her turn in the bathroom, where we can see that “training” bra hanging in the shower. I think it’s just a regular bra tbh. On the first day back at school, she wears a purpley-blue sleeveless shirt with a hood, a nice 2000s necklace, and a headband to try to control that insane amount of hair she has. She wears a cross body backpack thingie, which I had in grade 8 as well, which I still own today because it’s awesome. And finally she wears some khakis and I’m pretty sure for shoes she has mules, but I was unable to capture. As you may remember, Ash is running for school president. She wears a polo shirt which is white but has a red collar, sleeves, and chest pocket. With it she wears a big ol’ maxi pencil skirt, hoop earrings, a headband, and some more necklaces. What do you think of Ashley’s style?
