The Yellowstone series continues here at SaaCA with a snazzy suede fringe jacket from Ralph Lauren. If there’s any designer that “gets” classic American style right, it’s Ralph Lauren. From his take on preppy aesthetics, East coast prep schools are known for or the Western-style vibe embodying the rugged wild, wild West Ralph gets it right.
This is why he’s hands down my favorite designer for over forty years. I’ll always have a prep to my step. And I love to reinterpret the modern cowboy. Mr. Style was a big fan of western wear and always had a pair of cowboy boots, suede jacket, and wide-brimmed hat at his beck and call.
Today’s outfit is my take on what Beth Dutton would wear to town. If you’ve watched Yellowstone, then you know Beth loves flirty dresses, cowboy boots, and cool jackets. In more than one episode, she’s seen wearing a leopard coat.
Now that’s a girl after my own heart. While I did spy Beth wearing a suede sherpa jacket and hat that kicked off the series on Monday, I haven’t seen her specifically wear a fringe suede jacket. But I think she’d approve.

The suede boot cut/flat pumps combo is best pulled off with the rolled-up jeans look. But an easy substitute here would be a pair of midrise or skinny jeans of your choice.

Beth, I’m usually a fan of fringe anything. However, this jacket has just the right amount of fringe. In other words, it’s not overkill! The style is an updated classic with a twist. The fringe, of course! Great color, too. A great reinterpreted classic western look on you.
i’m loving this fringe jacket and know it will be on style repeat for years to come!
I love the fringe jacket. I have always loved Ralph Lauren too. I think you missed the classic Lauren look with the pumps. Boots or booties would be more appropriate.
I have a black suede jacket I purchased 4-5 years ago in Taos. Very comfy.
boots would be a good choice. but i love to step out of the tried and true style box and see what variations i can come up with.
I love the Yellowstone look but to be honest I’d prefer boots with this look. You always look sharp so I’m sure I’m probably alone in this. I just love boots.
💐peace offering?🙂
boots are always a safe bet with jackets. but i love to mix things up especially for an urban take on a western vibe.
Though I do enjoy your current content, I really miss your earlier “back in the day” style posts where Mr Style would videotape you wearing Mon-Fri “outfit of the day”. We’d see 5 different style inspirations in just one post! So fun! Bring it back, occasionally? Something to consider, hopefully.
thanks for the suggestion! mr. style and i were ahead of the game as those early YouTube videos are now Reels on Instagram and Shorts on YouTube. check out those channels for video inspiration.
Love Lauren
I would never thought of putting those shoes with that out fit!
Thank you
it’s fun to mix things up!
I’m also in the boot camp (no pun intended) if a Western vibe is desired b/c I think boots would balance the weight of the jacket. Interesting that on the RL site, the jacket is paired with a slinky black dress and high heels — just fashion and no pretense of anything Western there. However, I don’t watch Yellowstone, so I have no standing to comment as to whether this fits the look or not.
this is just my take on what Beth would wear when going to the city.
I haven’t see Yellowstone series. Would it look good in the Northeast US? I only occasionally see anyone even wearing turquoise here.
turquoise is optional. but it is a spectacular bauble. mr. style loved turquoise and i have a gorgeous turquoise pendant thanks to him.
I love Yellowstone though I’m not a fan of western wear. (Maybe prairie dresses.) This jacket, however, is darling. The perfect amount, length and placement of fringe. If it came in navy, I’d be tempted. The pumps are such a cute touch with this delicate, restrained western jacket. Love this outfit. (Love turquoise too.)
Yellowstone is such a relevant series. love the snapshot of “progress” and its effects through the highly dysfunctional lens of the Duttons.
Ralph Lauren always gets it right! This jacket is a prime example of the thought that goes into every detail.
Well, I am the odd man out today. I prefer the shoes to boots.
the shoes elevate the outfit from country to city.
I agree. With the snakeskin accents on the shoes, in my eye it totally ties the western/city slicker look altogether.
exactly! i always love to mix things up when it comes to outfits.
