With spring just around the corner, I’m really feeling pale denim and Liberty prints right now. I like to toughen up the look a little with a statement shoe (think new neutral booties or gladiators) and oversized aviators. Add a worn, utility anorak jacket for warmth and attitude. This twist on Americana feels really fresh to me after season upon season of dark, skinny denim and 80s-inspired looks. I think my Early Spring and Bohemian collections work really well with this look by adding a vintage feel without being costumey.
See this trend in action at Piperlime and pick up items from my spring collections at Etsy.
