Ashlyn Harris’s love for fashion
Soccer alone isn’t just Harris’s cup of tea, so is fashion. The 38-year-old has an interest in creatively blending costume jewelry with designer clothing. As per the US Soccor website, Harris would elevate her outfit in grade school by using markers and patches. She views fashion as a self-expression tool. The World Cup winner also has her own T-shirt line.
One of the reasons why Harris has a keen interest in fashion is that she believes it is a great conversation starter. Ashley Harris and Sophia Bush met in 2019 for the first time. Later they met again in 2023’s summer. As per her self-written essay in Glamour, Bush reflected that they became close friends as they consoled each other through their splits from their respective spouses.
Later on Bush asked Harris to have a “non-friend-group hang” which led to a four-and-a-half-hour-long meal. She expressed that it was one of the most “surreal experiences” of her life.
