Utility Vest & Denim Outfit at Red Rock Canyon

Scott and I ventured to Vegas for a mini spring break trip and during our stay, we stopped by Red Rock Canyon which is a mere 17 miles west, a 25-30 minute drive from where we were staying on the Las Vegas strip.  The majestic red rock formations and nature surrounding us was a pleasant and peaceful removal from the bright lights, entertainment overload, and casino hustle and bustle of the strip. My 'mountainess', nature-seeking inspired look featured a utility vest, denim blouse, and wide-fedora hat. See the details below, and also check out the time I visited Zion National Park in Utah; I'll be posting about Red Rock Canyon soon.

Ranch Fashion Remixed

Plaid, Denim, Pleats, & Booties

I'm excited that Dee of Swell Beauty and I will be presenting a series of braid hairstyle tutorials soon, and of course, photographed by the amazing Shawna of Bleudog Fotography. See my previous Swell Beauty collaborations here, and photographs of me by Shawna here! For this look in which I wore a half up-half down braid hairstyle; I was going for a more countryside, I live on a ranch-inspired look with a modern twist. I layered a denim button down underneath a plaid vest and tucked into a pleated midi skirt. I always love creating the juxtaposition of contrasting fabrics and textures, for this look in particular, the stiffer denim with soft, chiffon pleats. Shoes were cowboy-inspired booties, and had a red lip for some fancy flare. Details of my outfit:
