Provided you haven't been living under a rock this whole time, I guess you are already in on the fact that cowboy boots are back on the fashion menu. Now that doesn't mean that the whole cowboy look is in again, just the coolest segment, if you're asking me. You might remember that the last time these boots were rocked proudly, it was the ’90s and the trend had started because of a few celebrities such as Victoria Beckham and Brittney Spears.
Today, however, we cannot rely on the same images of that era as a lot has changed. Some new rules are in play and some things of the past are a no-no. So, if you only feel confident when it comes to pairing such boots with a colourful spring or summer dress and you want to have a few looks up your sleeve for the upcoming colder months, here are some ideas you may find useful.
Create a Fun, Yet Formal Look for the Office
The combo of a suit and western boots can give a whole direction of the old boring office go to that can ever be too formal for today's more casually oriented office environment. Go for an oversized blazer and kick flare trousers and western boots of your choice. You can also throw the boots in a crisp shirt dress and elegant business watch combo for an effortless and sassy look. Another idea is to pair a classic camel coat with a cropped chenille sweater and hold on to the completely monochrome theme with champagne colored pants and nude western boots.
Leave Something for the Streets
When paired properly, cowboy boots can add an element of oomph even to some rather basic outfits. The reason why this is so is because they are a little bit country and a little bit rock ‘n’ roll with the touch of bohemian. So, if you want to use them to create a eclectic street style look that's nothing by the book, just pair a jumpsuit with a sling bag. It might sound like a weird combo, but it works.
And for Days of After-work Drinks
A ruched sweater is something that steals the show in and of itself. You can pair this versatile piece with wide-leg pants and cowboy boots for a touch of playfulness. Another idea for those of you who like to stay toasty and look sexy without overdoing it is to wear a red hot sweater dress with a chunky turtleneck and western boots.
