Here's Ashley James at the Marc Jacobs Fragrances "Tweet Shop" Launch Party at Covent Garden. Ashley's platinum locks beautifully complement her very light eyes and complexion.
 
Ashley has a natural dark-blonde base, finely highlighted to a platinum, beach-blonde color on top of her head, with the lower lengths colored in a darker, medium blonde to add dimension and movement to her hair. Ashley has a relatively full mane of slightly wavy, fine-textured hair. Blonde hair creates the illusion of thicker hair than one actually has.
 
On her blog, she wrote that she "wanted an outfit that was smart, practical, but could work day to night." She decided on her boyfriend Matt Richardson's black Uniqlo turtleneck, her current favorite skirt, and a pair of high heels.

Her relaxed approach to hairstyling complements her smart, practical look effortlessly. To imitate her hair at home, simply apply blow-dry lotion to wet hair, and air-dry it, applying a small amount of silicone-based smoothing cream to the ends once the hair is dry.
 
If your hair is curlier than Ashley's, apply straightening lotion, blow-dry the hair until it is completely dry, apply a heat-protection product, and use a straightening iron, straightening only about half of your hair and leaving the rest wavy.
