The Modern Western

Ever since I can remember, I've been obsessed with the idea of the Wild West - having grown up there, it certainly didn't lose its luster. If anything, it only perpetuated my connection to adventure and wanderlust. If I could define wanderlust in the form of an outfit, this would be it. 

I got the midi dress from a vintage shop a few years back and find myself reinventing it's use all of the time. PS if you are shorter like me, I tend to gravitate to midi dresses paired with a good heel or wedge because it elongates the body in a flattering way. The jacket is helmut lang and yes, I completely understand it's $1500 and no I don't have that kind of money, but I found mine at a high-end discount retailer for literally $300 last year and of course it was like "duh! you're mine!". If you don't have $1500, here are some equally awesome (and affordable) ones for you here and here

Also, i've been digging neckerchiefs lately as well - I think I'm enjoying the fact I can continue my love for chokers into the colder seasons just by swapping them out for a more appropriate (and useful) sash. Warm AND stylish - I love it! Here's the exact one I've been sporting lately. 

Happy viewing babes! XO, SarahRileyRose
