Thumann completed the look with the brand’s Brown Vegan Suede Kitten Heel Boots ($127.50), a soft caramel knee-high style that added the perfect wintery pop of color. The content creator accessorized with statement rings, a black purse and a black belt to cinch her waist, completing the ensemble with sleek black oval sunglasses. Her long blonde-brown locks were tossed up into a tousled high bun, with a few face-framing pieces left loose.

“brunchin w @abercrombie #abercrombiepartner 🏈,” the 23-year-old captioned an Instagram carousel of the event and showed off her stylish ensemble. The Arizona native, who now lives in South Carolina, showed off her impeccable sense of style as well as her long lean legs and sculpted arms.
