We’re Going West!

We are not done wearing our bright colors and fun prints just yet. So, rather than turning late summer into premature fall, the new fashion trend is something a bit more reminiscent.

The new collections are noticeably darker, more somber, and more serious looking pieces of clothing and jewelry. Fortunately for us, they’re letting us hold on and hope for an Indian summer full of dusty heat, withering afternoons, and summer romance (why not?).

With this tribute to the western trend, the Western flare will totally have you thinking of summer while you’re wearing each piece. I can’t wait to pair the thick coral-peach cuff with a python envelope clutch. The coral-peach cuff alone will have me thinking of endless summer sunsets.
