    We’ve always said inspiration is everywhere, but when we collaborated with artist Donna Howell-Sickles, we weren’t expecting to find it in her closet.
    Donna's Varsity Jacket

    The vision for this vibrant varsity jacket was sparked by one of Donna’s all-time favorite fashion finds: a (now vintage) red leather letter jacket she’s cherished for more than three decades.

    “I still have it, and I still wear it,” she laughed, adding, “It’s probably 35 years old now, but that’s ok!”

    We know what you’re probably wondering, and no, it’s not from her alma mater.

    “I just loved the idea that it was a cowgirl letter jacket,” Donna said. “There was a company that used to make letter jackets for colleges and schools and all kinds of things, but I don’t know why they did this one. The patches on it are all made up – I was never a bareback rider or any of those things! Early on, I was actually reluctant to wear it because it looked like I had won something in a competition, and I haven’t – ever – been a competitive horse person. But I feel like, by now, I’ve drawn enough horses, I deserve it.”
