There are a few surefire ways to spot an It girl. I’m not going to give you all the secrets (it’s something you kind of have to figure out on your own), but here’s one: they’ll be rocking a Wildflower phone case.
Or they’ll be launching a collaboration with them. Take Ashtin Earle, for example. I’m sure you knew she was cool before learning that she just released her own Wildflower collaboration this week, but now it’s extra, extra official.
Wildflower, the phone case brand launched by sisters Devon Lee and Sydney Carlson (and their mom, Michelle) back in 2012, first came to prominence after Miley Cyrus happened to spot one of their designs and encouraged them to sell online. That story proves a couple of things. One: The girls have taste, and Miley Cyrus saw it. Two: sisters are iconic.
Though I think it’s fair to say Earle’s fame rose after the internet fell in love with her older sister, Alix, she was always going to be a star on her own. Now the same age as her big sis was when she was going viral from the University of Miami, the 21-year-old has a platform all her own. And a style all her own. And big ideas all her own, too.
Her Wildflower case marks her first collaboration, and she told Byrdie all about it—from how she picked the martini-print-on-black-background design to how it fits into the perfect mirror selfie. Plus, her secret recipe for the perfect night out.

Her Wildflower Collab Inspiration
“Just the fact that I love martinis. I have a little martini tattoo on my arm and I think they’re so cute and fun. Two years ago, I wrote in my goals/manifestation journal that I would have a Wildflower collab one day. So, this collab came to be because I’m a witch.”
How Her Phone Case Makes the Outfit
“I rarely swap my phone case, so I like to have one that matches a ton of different looks. Which is one reason I chose the black background, the other being it’s my favorite color to wear.”

Her Recipe for the Perfect Mirror Selfie
“1. Cute outfit. 2. Fun phone case. 3. Mog like your life depends on it.”
How She Puts Together A Night Out Look
“With a lot of stress and chaos. Every item I own will probably end up on the floor.”
The Going Out Look That Never Fails Her
“I can never go wrong with an all-black look. Probably a little micro-short and high heels moment. I feel like all my heels are pretty comfy, but that may also be due to the fact that my toes are half numb from wearing heels so often.”
