Hello! I'm Ashley James, a presenter, model, businesswoman, blogger, and YouTuber currently living in London.

Presenter, model, entrepreneur and successful blogger Ashley rose to fame after appearing on E4’s popular show Made in Chelsea, where she stayed for 2 series before leaving to embark on her true passion; presenting.  Ashley got her first taste for presenting aged just 16 when she applied for work experience at BBC Radio Cumbria where she would interview locals about their opinions on hard hitting news such as the price of Cumberland sausages! She also secured a small slot on the lunchtime show voicing her opinions on local news. This passion for presenting and radio continued into her university years where she worked for the news team for her University Radio station whilst studying for a degree in French and English Literature.

Following her departure from Made in Chelsea, Ashley has presented for Clothes Show TV, Clothes Show Live and online fashion channel Fashtag TV. She has hosted red carpet events for international jewellery brand Claire’s Accessories, and has been to festivals around the UK interviewing the various acts performing there. Most recently Ashley hosted the main stage of FestiFeel, a festival curated by Fearne Cotton for Coppa Feel and introduced acts such as Rizzle Kicks, Lianne La Havas to a crowd of 500 people. Ashley’s presenting work has seen her interview the likes of the Vamps, Union J, Neon Jungle, and Henry Holland amongst many others.

2014 saw Ashley present a 12 episode series on Sky and Freeview channel PopGirl TV. Style Stars saw Ashley set a series of fashion challenges to teenage girls. Ashley did all the voiceover and online content for the show.

As well as building a successful career as a presenter, Ashley is an international model with agencies in Istanbul, Milan and London and has been the face of Story Jewellery, House of Peroni, and Tutti Rouge amongst others.

If that wasn’t enough, Ashley co-founded and launched her own jewellery brand last year, Whistle and Bango which she initially ran from home. Ashley is extremely hands on and is involved in every element from manufacture through to sale. The signature post-code bangles have become a hit with the celebrity crowd- fans include Laura Whitmore, Stephanie Pratt, Lilah Parsons and many more.
