Langstons Lands in Edinburgh Scotland-DINGO BOOTS GIVEAWAY!

Yes, I’m traveling AGAIN...

And thanks to Langston’s Western Wear, I’m doing it in STYLE! They’ve sent me this adorable little Cruel Girl Western Shirt Dress with an Ariat Tooled Leather Belt featuring a filigree buckle

to style with THESE sweet little DINGO Metro 7″ Zipper Harness Boots!

Now, because I believe LITTLE boots are BIG this year AND next…I’m going to style them from now until Friday to give you a few ideas on how to wear them. This is no easy feat while traveling by the way (given I don’t have access to my endless closet and all). But I took this as a challenge to show you that you don’t need a big wardrobe to make THESE work. THEY do all the work for you…trust me!

A Little Checked Dress by Day and Night

Day

Night

DAY-Dress-Tulle (old) also seen here; Jacket-Thrifted (from Elvis’ closet?); Boots-Geox; Purse-Michael Kors; NIGHT-Top-MICHAEL Michael Kors; Shoes-Nine West; Purse (0ld)

This is me in a nutshell…one moment I’m all about country comfort and the next I’m headed into the city/a city/some city (lol) for some fun. So, I need my clothes to scream “SuzieStyle” ; yet, they have to work in both environments. I like to think that my country side puts my signature spin on my city look (not the other way around). I have no fear of mixing checks with animal prints or wearing cowboy boots with the fanciest of dresses. Like I said, this is ME…in a nutshell.

And yes, it’s still warm enough here to wear this…yet, cool enough to add an Elvis inspired “vegetarian” gold jacket!

Have a great day Y’all!

Love,

Suzie

Dog Days of Summer

Maxi Skirt-Winners; Denim Jacket-Thrifted; Tee-Gap; Belt-Thrifted; Purse-Michael Kors; Boots-Gucci

Here in BC, summer has decided to make a comeback for a while longer. And I mean full on summer heat with days between 25C-30C in the mountains for goodness sake! I’m coping with these dog days of summer by sneaking in a piece or two of my new fall purchases into my ensembles. And it looks like we have this weather for at least another week! By the end of it, I know I’m going to be the only fool wandering around in cashmere sweaters because I just can’t wait for the days to get cold enough to wear them. That’s me in a nutshell…impatient! I love fall…I want it to make a come back!

Love,

Suzie

Falling Down or Rising Up?

Top: Denim-Current and Elliott; Cashmere Pullover-Lord and Taylor; Blouse-Jones New York; Necklace-Designs by Shelagh; Purse-Michael Kors; Shoes-Christian Louboutin…Outside shots…Shoes-Zara; Necklace-thrifted; Scarf-street vendor in Venice

I know, I should have gotten back into blogging about a week and a half ago. But coming off an intense few weeks of studying, my brain needed a creative break. That, and I had previously decided I wanted to make some serious changes around here and wasn’t quite sure how I was going to introduce y’all to a new and improved version of UrbanCountryStyle.

Sooooo while it appears I was falling down on this blogging job, I’ve actually been planning a BIG and brave Fall expansion of the site. We’re talking HUGE!

Here’s the PLAN: Starting in September, you’re going to begin to meet the UrbanCountryStyle family. The new campaign “We Are The Salmons”  will feature fashion, food, travel, all the same stuff but with a lot of new faces (women, men, and kids!)… and more interesting shoot locations!

First up will be my beautiful niece BRANDY ELIZABETH! I’m so excited about the changes and the creative options this allows UCS that I can’t wait to share…so subscribe to the blog up there in the right hand corner and you’ll be the first to know when we relaunch. And don’t worry, you’ll still see me on here, but I’m sure by now you’re as ready for a change as I am!

AND, if you want some behind the scenes sneak peeks at what we’re doing when we’re doing it just follow along on Facebook, Instagram (@urbancountrystyle) or Twitter @UrbanCntryStyle .

Oh, I almost forgot…the post pics are a big indication of where I’m personally headed for Fall. Burnt Orange…Boyfriends…heels…cashmere…color…softness…comfort…suziestyle!

That’s my life folks…constant motion so I hope y’all are ready for the ride!

Love,

Suzie

Caftans and Cowhide

Caftan-Joe Fresh (only in stores, not online); Shoes-Enzo Angiolini (old); Necklaces-Fine Finds Vancouver; Watch-Michael Kors (similar here); Cowhide Stools-Home Sense; Pillows-Home Sense; Candles/Accessories-Home Sense; Area Rug – Home Sense

Of course they are similar…Cowhide is the new black and caftans are where it’s at this summer! Plus, I needed something green in the decor shot 🙂 (And you DO realize that you just got two posts for the price of one…fashion and a sneak peek at the master bedroom makeover I’ve been working on).

Have a great day Y’all!

Love,

Suzie
