Clothes — The Western Wardrobe
Western-inspired clothing that leans more fashion than costume — embroidery, fringe, equestrian prints, denim, leather and pieces with a little unexpected personality
A very polished take on Western style, with a cropped silhouette, Western yoke and those subtle suede-look details. I love this for someone who wants the Western influence without looking like they’re headed to a rodeo

ALIX OF BOHEMIA | Western Cactus bead-embellished textured-silk jacket
