Canadian twin brothers Dean and Dan Caten’s Fall collection is straight from the Wild West. I can feel the True Grit inspiration and I like it. The 20-gallon hats were by far my favorites, next to the leather duster coats and neckties.
March is here and we couldn’t be more excited to be guest blogging over at the ever so inspiring Free People blog! Check in each week this month for exciting projects and unique Honestly…WTF posts!!

If you loved Maia Flore’s Sleep Elevations you just might fall in love with Natsumi‘s photo blog documenting her daily levitations. The images are so fun to look at and you can’t help but wonder how she executes them so flawlessly (and adorably)! Honestly, WTF brilliant!
Silvia Venturini Fendi described the inspiration for her and Karl’s Fall collection as a buttoned-up-to-the-neck art teacher who is still wild enough to wipe paintbrushes through her hair and unleash the animal within. Honestly?! Not only do I absolutely adore that imagery, I’m crazy about mix of rich blues, mustard, and brick, the ribbed leggings, the oversized ruffles, the tri-colored fur, and the amazing Stegosaurus-esque headbands designed by Jennifer Behr.
Many years ago, we might have shunned the idea of wearing bolos but nowadays we couldn’t be more obsessed with these western neckties! Worn pulled up against a buttoned up collared shirt or loose as a necklace, bolos are our must have accessory of the moment. Inspired by recent street style sightings, magazine editorials, and a few designers who have embraced this western inspired trend, we put together an easy bolo tie tutorial that we hope you’ll love.
