This season at Ralph Lauren it’s all about leather. In the latest collection crisp white pieces, some with lace or frills, are combined with fringed suede leather shorts, trousers, dresses, waistcoats and jackets to create a sophisticated, feminine take on the Wild West. The looks are accessorised with dark leather belts with chunky silver buckles, distressed leather cross-body bags and leather cowboy hats. You can get the look for less by styling your own white shirt, dress or pair of trousers with one of these key accessories.
A firm favourite with princess-to-be Kate Middleton, leather hats have seen a surge in popularity with young fashionable women but as expected, they don’t come cheap. However, Wombat Leather, a relatively new brand, offer a range of stylish leather hats in both smooth, suede and distressed leather at reasonable prices. All their pieces are priced under £30.
2. A chunky distressed leather belt
Choose a wide belt made from dark brown distressed leather with a large metal buckle such as this one from Kenneth Brownne (£28.84). The dark colour and chunky, masculine style will strike a real contrast with a white, tailored or feminine outfit.
3. A distressed leather cross-body bag
Go for any tan-coloured cross-body bag that has a worn, vintage look. This one from the Rowallan Wyoming collection, made from thick, oil tanned buffalo leather has a great Wild West feel to it. Where as the Ralph Lauren embellished leather shoulder bag will set you back £855, this one is priced at only £64.99. What a bargain!
