WESTERN INFLUENCE FT. ECKHAUS LATTA

The Western influence is coming, and I’m feeling like there’s going to be a lot of cowboy-inspired style pieces making their way into our wardrobes this coming Spring. I put this look together as a little nod to the trend, but paired it with some darker accessories and interesting textures to make it feel a little more New York.

I started with these Eckhaus Latta pants (similar here) that I picked up at a second-hand shop in New Hampshire, and even though they’re everything, I wanted to pair them with something else unique as well. Enter: this really stunning corset I got from Amazon Fashion — it’s a satin red-brown hue that perfectly contrasted the brown cow print, and looked great on top of a black turtleneck. I finished the look with my oversized leather pilot jacket, black pointy boots (that Lindsey used to call my ‘Rumplestilskin shoes’), and my Prada Tessuto shoulder bag.

There aren’t many Shakespeare quotes about cowboys, so I’ll leave you with this one:

“Love comforteth like sunshine after rain, But Lust's effect is tempest after sun;”

[Venus & Adonis]
