    These are the three hero pieces that you need to invest in now to nail this must-have look

    This is a Marie Claire Advertorial

    Last year we saw designers dip their toes into a decidedly Western look on the AW14 catwalks, showcasing some subtle Navajo touches stamped on their trademark styles. This spring, the trend is in full flow with statement suede, fringing, distressed denim and relaxed checks all over the big fashion house collections.

    Not just for off-duty, a Western theme now lends itself to smarter daywear, eveningwear and even workwear, thanks to glamorous updates for 2015. Swish through the season in luxurious fringing, sexy denim pencil skirts and checked shirts – we’ll show you how....

    There is no better place to start your Wild West collection than with a piece that boasts two of the essential features of this trend: The Pam & Gela Fringed Suede Jacket. A festival must-have, this jacket will give instant SS15 kudos to any outfit. Wear with ripped denim, white t-shirts or, if you’re feeling brave, try coordinating with a suede skirt.

    The perfect piece of distressed denim, this High Waisted Pencil Skirt by CURRENT/ELLIOTT should be high on your spring wish list. Not just for off-duty, make this piece work for the office with a smart shirt and high heels. Dare to try double denim for a stronger take on the trend.

    Invest in an iconic classic and complete your new Western style with this Long Sleeve Check Shirt by Equipment. A modern take on a traditional shirt, Equipment’s version ties at the waist for a more feminine and high fashion finish – perfect for teaming with that denim pencil skirt and suede jacket.
