BOHO CHIC

Retail exec Brittany Cobb’s personal style is influened by her California roots.

ART OF STYLE

FLEA STYLE FOUNDER AND CEO BRITTANY COBB IS A “MAXIMALIST” WHO LIKES TO LAYER.

WHAT I DO:

“I’m the founder and CEO of Flea Style, which has fie retail stores in DFW selling women’s clothing, accessories, and hats. I also own Wide Brim, a specialty boutique inside Hotel Drover in Fort Worth, and Heirloom Haul, a restaurant and tearoom housed inside our Flea Style store in Frisco.”

STYLE ICONS:

“I am influened by so many stylish women and take bits and pieces from them to create my own look. I especially adore Coco Chanel, Diane Keaton, and Rachel Zoe. I am drawn to women who are rooted in the classics but are not afraid to break the style rules—and wear a hat!” Worth, boots are a must to handle the historic cobblestone streets leading up to our stores.”

FASHION INSPIRATION:

“I’m inspired by my California roots, fle markets, mom life (comfort is always key), and my love of hats. I adore things that tell a story—a chunky amber necklace scored in Morocco, vintage Chanel blazer scored at the Paris flea—and ceate one-of-akind style.”

STYLE DEFINED:

“I’ve always loved the art of mixing styles, whether it be by era, price, or vibes. Overall, I would say my style is boho-chic and heavily influened by my California/Western roots.”

ON THE JOB:

“On some days, I’m running meetings, while on others, I’m running the dishwasher in our restaurant. Every day I need to be dressed for a board meeting but also be comfortable enough to roll up my sleeves and help the kitchen or our distribution team. If it’s a day in Fort FASHION ESSENTIALS: “I never leave home without my phone, vintage ’70s Rolex, Stetson hat, oversized sunglasses, ChapStick, and Orbit sweet mint gum.”

GO-TO LOOK:

“Jeans, a blouse, vintage belt, wide brim hat, 2-inch hoop earrings, and heels.”

HOW I ACCESSORIZE:

“I am a maximalist and love to layer. You’ll always find me with mix of metal necklaces, a decorated hat, and a worn vintage belt with whatever I’m wearing that day. I never leave the house without an oldschool watch, too.”

WEEKEND LOOK:

“I trade my wide-brimmed hat in for a trucker hat.”

FAVORITE STORES:

“Outside of Flea Style, I love Anthropologie and Target for everyday items and Chanel, Gucci, and The RealReal for splurges.”
