Black in style: Have you met ‘The First Lady of Texas Football,’ Loreal Sarkisian?

College football may still be days away from wrapping its postseason games, but the winner of this season may have long been declared. 

Loreal Sarkisian, wife of Texas Longhorns Coach Steve Sarkisian, has become known for turning heads off the field. Since the season kicked off in August, students, fans of college football, and style lovers alike have been clamoring online about Sarkisian’s sideline style.

Before the current season began, Sarkisian sat down with Texas Monthly to reflect on her style, during which she shared how her mother is among her influences. 

“[My mother] was a strong believer that you wore what looked good on you, what enhanced you, not necessarily what was trendy or popular. I live by that to this day,” she said.
