The New Fashion Frontier
Argentina is hot, hot, hot, and so are clothes that evoke its colorful cowboy culture.
Riding Into The Sunset
Here in the North, we think of gaucho pants as wide, cropped trousers. Not so: Real bombachas are long and slouchy, with a buttoned cuff at the ankle to prevent pants from riding up. This cotton pair looks surprisingly sultry with a satin silk blouse, draped to expose the back, and a debonair fedora (pants and blouse, Ralph Lauren Collection, $798 and $1,298; fedora, Patricia Underwood for Ralph Lauren Collection). To wear the woven sash (a local find; you could also use a long printed scarf), wrap it around your waist a few times, then tuck in the ends—the pattern makes neutrals come alive.
Boots, Guess
Beauty Bonus:
You don't need to fuss over your makeup with these back-at-the-ranch looks. Fake a bare, sun-kissed complexion with powder bronzer (like Elizabeth Arden Pure Finish Mineral Bronzing Powder, $32). Use a short, fluffy brush to apply it everywhere the sun would hit: cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, chin, and forehead. Low-cut blouse? Dust a little over your neck and chest too.
