Thanks to a comment from It’s Amazing, “Natalie” has been successfully identified as actress Nathalie Kelley. Her biggest roles to date are Neela in The Fast and the Furious and the female lead in the Bruno Mars music video for “Just The Way You Are.”
The Western look is projected to be huge for Fall 2011. Proenza Schouler famously road-tripped around the American southwest to create this collection. The boys digitized Native American blankets to create pixelized interpretations of the patterns for their fabrics, which were lauded within the industry for integrating color, layering, and shape with extraordinary precision. Diane Von Furstenberg also looked west for her Fall collection and when interviewed she specifically mentioned the rodeo as a primary source of inspiration.
Purchasing a pair of Cowboy boots is one of the easiest ways to integrate a “Western” vibe into your wardrobe. Pair them with everything from a denim shirt dress like Sara above to a pair of sleek tailored jeans for a night on the town.
The question for you all is, will you be rocking the Western look this autumn?
