“I cherish the ring

my mom gave me

when I was eight

[on ring finger,

left hand]. I always

liked jewelry, so I

started crying

because I had no

jewelry. She said,

‘Here, take my ring.’

It was probably to

keep me single.”

THE TAKEAWAY

You don’t have to go

full cowboy to borrow

from the West.

Ground a statement

piece like this

shearling coat

against everyday

streetwear for a

look that’s rugged

but refined.
