Who We Are
We are so happy you are here in our little corner of the internet! Welcome to our blog! This is a space where we will share new product launches and highlight customers, featured items, talk about the store and what is going on here! We want this blog to be the area we come to as we talk about new items and we want you to relate to it. We want you to feel like you have a place here, because you do!
We felt that it was only fitting to have our first blog post be about who we are and where we came from! We are story tellers here and we hope you connect with our brand in ways that will make you feel like your best self. We strive to help you channel your inner creative and feel truly comfortable in the styles you wear. First, let us introduce ourselves!
I’m Ally! The founder of Ads+Wes and I literally dreamt up this store over quite some time but it was when I was pregnant with my second baby, Wesley that I knew I had a calling to make this a reality for me and my family. I am a mom of two and a wife and I have been a photographer for almost 12 years with a simple passion for connecting with people. I reside in Wisconsin with my family and we are kind of small town people who really love to support our communities! I have always been certain that style and fashion is a love language for me especially after I had my daughter Addisen. She was the one who redesigned me, taught me truly who I was and who I am meant to be. She is the one thing God knew I needed even though I had no idea I needed her until the moment I laid my eyes on her. I feel completely whole knowing I get to be Addie + Wes’ mom and there really isn’t any other feeling like it in the world for me.
After I had Addie, I lost a significant amount of weight and basically long story short, I found myself again through clothes and well frankly I felt like I was finally stepping into who I was meant to be. Style helped me with that. Fast forward to now, with two kids and a maintained weight loss and feeling like I truly know where I want to continue my growth, Ads+Wes fits perfectly into my life. I strive to help women feel like they can discover who they are through clothing items that are sustainable, make them feel good and speak to them and better yet, help kids feel dang good too. Because from experience, it changed who I am for the better. I want to share that with the world!
Our name is our kids nicknames and they are so meaningful. The brand is an extension of who I am at my core, because they are my entire life. We want to keep minimal and intentional pieces in peoples closets forever and our goal is to connect with families to style them to feel their absolute best.
So thank you for being here, for supporting a little old dream and experiencing what a little bit of style can do for you and your kids! Style should be fun, easy, effortless and exciting. Not dreadful!
We are here to help and cannot wait to have you experience Ads+Wes
Ally, Zach, Addie + Wes
