Ashley & Kelly Edit: Island Life & Sunchasers

They’ve long boarded through Tokyo streets, vlogged their way across Europe, and now Ashley Alexander and Kelly Wakasa had just touched down in the Philippines, island-ready and beach-bound. Known for their comforting vlogs and spontaneous adventures, our favorite couple teamed up with Blackbough Swim to curate their ultimate summer looks..

Split into two volumes—Island Life and Sunchasers—this collection is a snapshot of how Ashley & Kelly travel. From sunrise shoots to late-night ramen hunts, the pieces reflect their shared style: relaxed, spontaneous, and always camera-ready.

Let’s be real, wearing the exact same thing as your partner all the time? Sometimes cute, sometimes not the vibe. But always matching each other’s vibe? 100% Yes. So whether you’re feeling full twin mode with his and hers pieces or just want to look good side by side, you’re covered.

From cheeky bottoms to guy-proof trunks, Ashley and Kelly curated their perfect collection with swimwear that feels most like them. These are the outfits they’d actually pack from a Siargao surf sesh to a golden hour beach walk.

Vacation Soulmates

Being a content-creating couple means lots of layovers, last-minute shoots, and travel-induced inside jokes. But it also means double the memories. We asked them how it’s like working with your partner-in-crime

You’ve vlogged, traveled, and have done everything together — what’s your favorite thing about working as a duo?

“We LOVE that we both have the same job - aka we can always work around each other’s schedule + we have so many opportunities to do things together. We’re incredibly lucky to have a flexible lifestyle that allows us to explore new places and have new experiences! Furthermore, having the same job means we can always lean on each other and fully understand the ups/downs of being on social media!”

How do you keep things fun (and sane!) when you’re both creating content and building something together?

“We both are so passionate about creating that luckily it has never gotten in the way of us enjoying time together <3 Still, we make sure to take breaks and we of course spend the vast majority of our time off-camera just enjoying each other's presence!”

Now what is your idea of the perfect adventure trip — any musts on the itinerary?

“We MUST: have at least one “Do What Excites” moment - aka something adventurous like surfing, skydiving, hot air balloon, hiking etc! Also - we always need a good IVL and matcha latte!“

What’s one thing you always do in a new city or country?

“We love going on a jog in new cities we visit! It’s a great way to see more of the city :)”

What makes a destination a "let’s come back" kind of place for you?

“The people & the food! When we really vibe with the community of a place we visit we LOVE to come back. Same goes for the food! The Philippines has both great people and great food so we can’t wait to come back a 3rd time!”

Postcards from the Islands

Ashley and Kelly are no strangers to the Philippines, but this trip is a little different with Philippine beaches, local snacks (shoutout to pandesal, taho & MANGO!), and experiencing a boodle fight for the first time!

“WE LOVE THE PHILIPPINES!!! One of our most favorite countries that we’ve visited. Everyone is so nice and we love how positive people are.”
