Today we’d like to introduce you to Ashley Shields.
Hi Ashley, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I started The Foxy Leopard Boutique because I’ve always loved bold fashion and the way a single accessory can completely transform an outfit. Over the years, I noticed that so many women around me wanted to stand out, but they didn’t always know where to find pieces that felt unique, confident, and full of personality.
I wanted to create a space where women—especially women of color—could find bold, unique statement accessories that make them feel powerful the moment they put them on. I didn’t want anything basic or ordinary. I wanted pieces that turn heads, spark conversation, and bring out your inner “that girl.”
So I began curating accessories that were stylish, vibrant, and unforgettable. What started as a small idea quickly grew into a brand built on confidence, creativity, and self-expression. Every collection I release has intention behind it—whether it’s the colors, the themes, or the story.
Today, The Foxy Leopard Boutique is all about helping women elevate their look without overthinking it. It’s for anyone who loves fashion, wants to make a statement, or just loves hearing “where did you get that?” I’m proud of how far the brand has come, and I’m excited to keep creating pieces that help women feel confident, stylish, and seen.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
No, the journey hasn’t been completely smooth. I had to learn everything on the go — from choosing the right products to balancing creativity with the business side. There were moments of slow sales, self-doubt, and launches that didn’t perform the way I expected. But every challenge pushed me to grow, get clearer about my brand, and stay committed to helping women feel confident and seen through bold statement accessories.
As you know, we’re big fans of The Foxy Leopard Boutique . For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
The Foxy Leopard Boutique is all about bold, unique statement accessories designed to help women feel confident, stylish, and unforgettable. I specialize in curating pieces that instantly elevate any look — the kind of accessories that turn heads, spark conversation, and make you feel like the spotlight is yours. What sets my brand apart is the intentionality behind every collection: I don’t follow trends — I create vibes that celebrate individuality, culture, and personal style, especially for women of color who deserve to feel seen in fashion.
I’m most proud that my brand empowers women to express themselves unapologetically. Whether it’s a bold earring, a chic cuff, or a dramatic necklace, each piece is meant to reflect personality and confidence. I want readers to know that The Foxy Leopard Boutique is more than accessories — it’s a space where women can embrace their inner “that girl,” feel beautiful without trying too hard, and show up boldly in their everyday lives and special moments.
