While many girls look to Paris Fashion Week or the streets of Soho for style inspiration, TC girls look west. We’d take Montana over Manhattan and Ralph Lauren over Louis Vuitton any day of the week. What better way to embrace your patriotism than through jeans, oversized blazers, ruffled dresses, and made in the USA cowboy boots? In a time where style is identity and identity is style, we’re embracing our gritty American roots and bringing the spirit of the west to Fifth Ave and beyond. Though we should warn you, the only horses you’ll find in Manhattan are the noble steeds of the NYPD.

Who said western couldn’t be girly? Bring on the bows and ruffles, if that’s your thing. And we love those contrast boots.
