In a pastoral landscape among a menagerie of animals, Andrea and Lukas channeled blue blood aristocracy overseeing their property holdings in regal plaid, fur-lined layers and opulent textures.

Breath of the Earth
Many of these looks, rich with texture and color, impart an earthy, comfortable impression, while still abundant with elegance.

Rich Bloodlines
In much the same way that the crossing of strong bloodlines produces a superior horse, the combination of strong, classic elements—such as a striped jacket with a tailored pant or a nipped-waist vest with a full skirt—yield a timeless look.
