I've been feeling this Western-inspired vintage fringe look.  

As anyone who cares to express themselves with their instincts in fashion, I always turn to vintage as my starting point. I found this suede oversized 80s while thrifting in the 90s. It's well-made and fully lined in cashmere satin to keep me warm. The fringes on the jacket speak to the wardrobe of who the sheriff might have been on Westworld or Yellowstone -- those who seek to challenge who's the boss at times. The skirt has an Aztec feeling in its jacquard weave and a feminine cut with the flounce.  White over-the-knee suede boots are sassy and play with proportions more than a classic cowboy boot would. The felted hat is undeniably fast fashion...it's cute; just a little nod to the period without the expense of a true cowboy hat. It's more subtle than glaringly Western. All of this is cinched with a metallic belt. The scarf is silk from the 50s but any printed scarf would do to add colour.

There's also this look I've put together which feels more 70s from the collection. With its poofy prairie-like sleeves it holds to the Western mood. The print is paisley with a few floral elements. The silhouette is more wearable without several layers of a petticoat, though these days I wouldn't mind a petticoat note.
