Siapa Rachel Ashwell?






So if u were following me at twitter.com,i bet u guys know what's my obsession and addiction lately.I've been talking about Rachel Ashwell much.Siapa dia?hehe she's not a singer nor an actress.She's actually an interiror designer especially in vintage decoration.Yes,vintage(sampai majlis kahwin last year pun buat ala-ala inggeris style bahaha!)Does anybody here loves vintage too?

"Shabby Chic" and Rachel Ashwell sangat sinonim.At first, Ashwell began doing what became Shabby Chic in her own home as she decorated the house to withstand the rigors of her children and pets. She made washable, design–friendly slipcovers for her furniture. Friends soon wanted them, which led to her first store.

In about 1989, Ashwell opened a store in Santa Monica, California, called Shabby Chic. By this time, she wanted to start a small business, though Shabby Chic soon became a large, successful company. She began by selling slipcovers, in such varied materials as velvet, denim, and linen. She later expanded to vintage furniture and accessories for the home, again emphasizing comfort as well as the beauty of imperfections.
