Kult Australia model Adin Taylor dons a wardrobe of casual styles in 'On The Rocks,' an editorial that is captured for online style publication The Ones 2 Watch. The image series is lensed by photographer Joshua Heath and spotlights wearable and effortlessly cool looks from labels that include Levis among other familiar names.

Stylist Nicki Colbran handpicks Adin's nostalgic clothing picks -- ranging from [vintage jean and t-shirt pairings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modeloffduty-essentials) to [statement leather jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-3-capsule-2) that are both rebellious and understated in their overall look and feel.

Posing seaside, Adin pulls off casual styles while exploring a rocky landscape. The model is captured in a set of candid and moody images that are spontaneous rather than overly posed or edited. On The Rocks is reflective of today's youthful style aesthetic that relies on pieces that are bold while promoting comfort.
