Cowboy boots are in style this season and we are here for it! Being a Texas girl, I have been obessed with this new trend. Up until western boots became trendy, we would mainly wear them for our Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo which happens once a year in Spring. If you are wondering what do I wear with my new western boots, I’m here to offer a few tips on how to style your cowboy boots along with some outfit ideas.

Dress up western boots with Dresses and Skirts
Don’t limit your western boots to casual attire—dress them up for a chic and unexpected twist. Pair your boots with a flowy boho maxi dress or a flirty floral skirt. The contrast between the feminine silhouette and the rugged boots creates a unique and eye-catching ensemble. Consider adding a denim or leather jacket to elevate the look further.
One of my favorite ways to style my western boots is with dresses. Dresses are so easy to dress up or down.

Pair them with Denim for a classic look
One of the most iconic combinations is western boots with denim. Opt for a pair of well-fitted jeans or denim shorts, and tuck them into your boots. This classic look exudes effortless cool and works well with both traditional cowboy boots and more contemporary styles. Complete the outfit with a graphic tee or a chambray shirt for a touch of Western authenticity.
You can also style your western boots with a denim romper or jumpsuit, add a cowboy hat for an effortless look.

Mix and Match with Unexpected Pieces
Experimenting with contrasting styles can yield captivating results. Try pairing your western boots with unexpected pieces like tailored blazers, structured dresses, or even feminine lace tops. This unexpected combination adds a touch of edginess and can turn heads with its boldness. Don’t be afraid to break fashion norms and create your own unique style.

Contrast with Feminine Pieces
I’ve been obsessed these longer boots that have been trending over the traditional shorter western boots. Link for this satin dress outfit here.
Contrasting the ruggedness of cowboy boots with feminine dresses or skirts creates a unique and balanced look. Opt for flirty sundresses, A-line skirts, or lace garments. Choose soft, feminine colors like pastels or neutrals to complement the boots. Add a belt to cinch the waist and create a defined silhouette.

One fun way to style your cowboy boots is to pair them with an oversized tee and biker shorts. Wear this for a comfy outfit to a carnival or a fair.
I wore this outfit to the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo one year. The weather was warm during the day and cool at night. I paired it with a suede fringe cropped jacket. Most of this outfit is from Amazon. Yay!
Edgy Vibes
Give your cowboy boots an edgy twist by pairing them with leather pieces or distressed denim. Try combining them with a leather jacket, a band t-shirt, and ripped jeans for a rebellious look. Add some studded accessories or a wide-brimmed hat to enhance the edgy aesthetic. This combination exudes a cool and confident vibe.
Power Suit with a Western Twist
Make a bold statement by pairing your Western boots with a tailored power suit. Opt for a pantsuit or a skirt suit in a modern cut and vibrant color. Pair it with a crisp white button-down or a bold printed blouse. Add a statement belt to accentuate your waist and give it a Western-inspired touch. This combination showcases a fusion of power dressing and Western style.
While this isn’t a full on suit in the picture, it’s a cute way to dress up your western boots with a blazer. This one is paired with a bodycon dress and a long line blazer. Ps. this blazer is so amazing, I own it in 4 colors.

Play with Colors and patterns
Western boots come in a variety of colors and patterns beyond the traditional brown or black. Experiment with bold hues like red, turquoise, or snake print. Treat your boots as statement pieces and build your outfit around them. Pair them with neutral tones or embrace the art of pattern mixing by combining them with floral or geometric prints.
Here my snake print boots are paired with a neutral long sleeve dress and crossbody bag.
Monochromatic Western Chic
Create a sleek and modern look by styling your cowboy boots as the statement piece of a monochromatic outfit. Choose a monochromatic color scheme, such as all-black or all-white, and let the boots be the focal point. This minimalist approach allows the boots to shine while maintaining a sophisticated and contemporary aesthetic.
Office-Ready Attire
Yes, you can wear cowboy boots to the office! Opt for more refined and tailored pieces to create a professional look. Pair your boots with a pencil skirt or tailored trousers, and add a blouse or a structured blazer. This combination adds a touch of Western flair to your office attire without compromising on professionalism.
I have yet to try this way but if I did, I would pair mine with a long skirt, possibly denim skirt, and a fun blouse.
Conclusion
Western boots are a versatile and stylish addition to any wardrobe. By following these tips and embracing your creativity, you can effortlessly incorporate them into a range of outfits.
