Welcome to As Told By! We’re Ashley and Shelby Dunn aka Ash and Shelbs. We’re sisters and we currently live in New York City but we were born and raised in Texas. Together we own As Told By, a lifestyle website focused on providing inspiration for your daily life while sharing a piece of ours.
It’s been awhile since I shared some of the books I’ve read lately, so go grab a cup of coffee (or glass of wine, i won’t judge) and let’s chat. I always love reading these kind of posts, and I…
For the past week I have been in Dallas spending time with the parental units, so I thought I would share a little bit of what we got up to. When mom picked me up from the airport we headed…
