There’s just something about a girl who exudes an independent spirit in both her life and her wardrobe. With a penchant for mixing unexpected silhouettes with tough accents, she’s a pro at creating unique looks. Since Coach’s spring collection—inspired by rugged Americana—is filled with such statement pieces, we took to the desert to show you how to nail the carefree vibe that’ll be everywhere as the weather warms up. Photographer power couple Michaela Wissén and Riley Harper (motorcycles in tow, naturally) demonstrate how to channel the rebellious look against the beautiful backdrop of Pioneer Town Motel in Joshua Tree, California. From studded leather jackets to whimsical frocks, endless outfit inspiration for the new season lies ahead.
