Won Hundred Denim Top / Etre Cecile Star Denim / Matt Bernson Clogs (similar) / Zac Zac Posen Bag / Vintage Choker / Vintage Levi's Belt

 

Not sure if it's the western trend that stuck with me since it's return a few years back or perhaps the original influence of my birthplace of "the great state of Texas", but notes of denim, vintage Levi's paraphernalia, and metal accents tend to creep up in my everyday dressing. These classic items are fail-proof and my favorite thing that brands have been doing are taking those pieces and updating them with a fresh twist. Take these boyfriend/mom-fit jeans for instance, Etre Cecile has added an embroidered star print for something fun and different. The denim work shirt takes a minimalist update from brands like Won Hundred. And metal accents finish off a vintage choker and clean leather clog. It's all in the fine details that take items (and outfits) from 0 to 100. Shop the links above to check out these cowgirl favorites and more.

Rodebjer Jacket & Pants / Awoke Vintage Mockneck (similar) / Matt Bernson Flats / Zac Zac Posen Bag (or here)/ Super Sunglasses / Alibi Ear Chain

After discovering Rodebjer during my time at Shopbop, I've been head over heels in love with the brand. Ever-evolving but rooted in it's ease and leisure, designer Carin Rodebjer has beautifully crafted a modern line with silhouettes that women want to wear everyday.

A sucker for breezy pants, I was immediately drawn to these trousers with a springy but not overly floral print. I contrasted the slinky quality of the trousers by pairing them with a structured topper and turtleneck with metallic sheen. Keeping that minimalist but quirky feel, I accessorized the look with stark-white flats, mirrored sunnies, geometric crossbody and a sleek chain earring. Shop the links above and click HERE for a closer look at Rodebjer.

Tess Giberson Sweater / Ganni Pant / Matt Bernson Loafer / Kiliwatch Paris Vintage Jacket (similar)

We all know about my obsession with knitwear, PJ dressing, and neutrals. So when I combine all three (even when it's freezing), it's an amazing mix. I'm particular about fabrics in these categories because they can make or break the outfit both visually and texturally. Each piece I'm wearing in the look above is close to a 10/10 on the comfort level. The fabrics, along with being cozy, also have beautiful texture. The designs are clean but unique. An outfit like this is perfect for everything from a day of running errands when all you want to do is sleep or a weekend brunch when all you really want to wear is (real) pajamas. Shop the links above to get my cozy look from some of my favorite boutique brands.

Frame Polo / AMO Denim / Matt Bernson Mule / Pamela Love Earrings / Snash Ring / Slate Ring

As we transition into fall, I want to highlight 3 things that are vital for my wardrobe: a jean update, a polo revival, and mules you can actually walk in! First, the jeans. This amazing pair from AMO checks all the boxes on my list for a jean update-- high waisted, cropped, mini flare, raw hem. Can it get any better? The slight fading on the thigh also slims and lengthens the leg so I'm all in! Next, the polo. This isn't a "fratstar" situation... Hopefully we've left those days behind us! This polo by Frame has a some unique detailing with the deep v which adds a bit of femininity and is super soft, too! Last up, the mule. I am OBSESSED with these flat mules by Matt Bernson. I wore them during a lot of my "eurotrip" and I just love how unique, cool, and comfy they are. Shop these favorite pieces for your transitional wardrobe via the links above :)

Alice McCall Dress / Stan Smith Custom Sneakers / Matt Bernson Bag  / Pamela Love Rings / Slate Rings via Rocksbox

 

I’m not even sure where to start with this look other than I’m completely and utterly obsessed with this dress. It’s white first of all, so let’s knock that off the list. And the lace detailing? DIVINE. I decided to tame down the femininity a bit by adding clean, white sneakers and my favorite structural crossbody. I topped things off with some boho-rocker-chic rings and achieved a look that’s feminine, cool, and chic all at the same time. Shop the links above to get the look :)
