Husskie has been crushing on Ashleigh D’Mello since earlier this year when we first stumbled across her feed featuring a slew of outfits delivered straight from clothing heaven. And then there’s her enviable hair and insane eyebrows *sigh* (did we mention we’ve been crushing?!)

To find out more about just what makes this style maven tick, we selected Ashleigh as our latest victim to come under the Husskie 50 Questions line of fire…
