Published by Sigrid under Cowboy Boots, Cowgirl Fashion

We probably have heard this from our mothers before –your shoes must match your bag, this is the rule. I have always followed that rule and to this day, I cannot go out if my shoes do not match my bag. Some may call it an expensive rule but your shoes or your handbags do not need to be expensive at all.

Brown leather cowboy boots always go well with a brown leather handbag of the same shade. Boring? No not really. Being monochromatic will give you a classier look but enough of the fashion advice, let’s take a look at the trendiest bags I found online.

This is a crocodile embossed handbag made from faux leather making it a very animal-friendly choice for animal activists. Since it’s a tote, this handbag is quite roomy but what I really love about it is that it is very stylish and looks almost like real crocodile leather.

It is available at Western Handbag Store for $59.99.

This is another version of the tote above. It is also made from top quality faux leather and features enough room for all your personal items.

You would no longer have to carry your planner around with your hand with fear of losing it if you have this bag.

Boots: How To Wear Them

Published by Sigrid under Cowboy Boots, Cowgirl Fashion

Shoes are important for every girl and whether you are talking about cowboy boots or regular shoes, these are things that women go gaga for. Boots, according to fashion experts, are probably the most fashionable shoes one can find but if you are not sure how to wear them, here are a few things you should keep in mind:

Above The Knee

Boots above the knee are a staple in the world of fashion but if you are worried about looking trashy, you should pair them with skinny jeans, mini dresses, shorts or leggings.

You should also stick with boots that are made from either leather or suede, getting over the knee or thigh high boots not made from these materials will only make you look trashy –a look that every girl should avoid.

Cowboy Boots

This classic riding boot is hot stuff. It is preferred by a number of celebrities and will definitely stay as one of the hottest boots for the year and the years to come.

Getting a good pair of cowboy boots at real affordable prices is possible even if you get a pair made from exotic skins. Shopping for cowboy boots at Boot City is a good idea.

Boots With Low Heels

If you value comfort more than anything else, you will definitely love low-heeled cowboy boots. You can always pair these boots with jeans, a nice dress or a skirt. These will also make walking more comfortable.

Fur Collars On Boots

These are very nice boots and they will protect your feet from the cold. There are a number of boots like these being sold in the market and they range from having real fur to those that have faux fur. These fur collars on boots are great both for winter and spring.

Don’t have boots yet? You can always go to Boot City to get a pair of classic cowboy boots.

Published by Sigrid under Cowboy Boots, Cowgirl Fashion

Ever heard of cowboy couture? Also known as the quintessential western look, cowboy couture when done right is a good mix of cowboy attitude and great accessories. Although fashion experts would say that you should find a style that suits you best, if you are in love with cowboy couture, it is not so hard to incorporate cowboy fashion into your wardrobe.

Sure you have heard of the many ways of incorporating or integrating those wonderful leather cowboy boots into your daily outfits but we looked for the nicest photos we can find under cowboy couture to give you an idea on how to give your cowboy boots a new twist.

Here are a few ideas:

Alright this might be a good idea if you are going to a costume party but if you are going to one, you might as well be a cowboy or a cowgirl. Call us biased but cowboy fashion is an important part of the US’s cultural consciousness. If you were something like what the couple in the picture are wearing, people would think that your horse might be tied to a post somewhere around the bend.

If you want to go avant garde about it, you might as well mix and match some of your cowboy stuff and look astonishingly hot! This is not only a good outfit for the runway ladies but will do well in the big city as well just as long as you make sure you carry the clothes well. It’s all about how you strut it really.

If you are very fashion forward, then this photo might inspire you. We say way to go to cattle raisers! They sure look nice! If you want to use your cowboy boots on a daily basis, pairing it with a nice skirt would surely look nice. The cowboys should wear pants though, just had to say.

Womens Cowboy Boots And Their Sex Appeal

Published by Sigrid under Cowboy Boots, Cowgirl Fashion

The popularity of women’s cowboy boots is undeniable but what are the reasons behind this popularity? According to experts, the no.1 reason is sheer sex appeal. While the design of the cowboy boot is merely functional in origin, all of the features of the shoe are associated with sensuality and often, passion.

Although it is also reminiscent of the hardships in the Old West, today, cowboy boots for women, have a different vibe altogether. Cowboy boots are usually worn by fashionable women and even if they aren’t really bad girls, the bad girl profile is associated with them just because they are wearing cowboy boots. And they turn a few heads –that is undeniable.

Cowboy Boots and Hollywood

Phot Via stylescout.blogspot.com


Hollywood has had and still has a long standing love affair with the Wild West and along with its sheer sex appeal, cowboy boots for women are also featured in many a western films. According to psychologists, since this time period is so full of passion and romance and often, excitement, lots of women are attracted to western boots. Most of these women wear these boots too.

A Return to a Glorious Past

It is no secret that peoples from allover the globe say that America is just a place for a fast paced life i.e. fast food, e-commerce, etc. This is the reason why many go back to one of the most nostalgic parts of its history –the Old West when life was less harried and people were more adventurous and passionate about the things they do. America as a whole of course is still very passionate about certain things but no longer that passionate or as romantic as the Old West.

Women’s Cowboy Boots In Today’s Market

Western cowboy boots for women are available in a range of styles and colors. They are made from different materials too. With the increasing popularity of this fashion item, cowboy boot makers are now using exotic skin to make cowboy boots for women. This includes lizard, eel, snake, alligator, stingray and ostrich leather.

What Do Men Think About Women In Boots?

Published by Sigrid under Cowboy Boots, Cowgirl Fashion

Mention boots, leather and thigh high to a man and he will think about a femme fatale or maybe of women the likes of Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman.


When one talks about boots in general or cowboy boots on women, what really goes on in the heads of men? Sexy is probably the best word to describe it but what else?

Boots are a rather difficult subject and if worn the wrong way can definitely send the wrong signals. When it comes to cowboy boots, women who wear them are either stylish or rugged –either way however they would still look undeniably hot.

If you are talking about boots however i.e. leather, stiletto boots, men are divided. Some say it all depends on the woman wearing these types of shoes. While some look awfully slutty (excuse the term) others can make boots look graceful and stylish. We are guessing this all depends on the whole ensemble and not just how the person wearing the boots pulls off the look.

According to some, boots (and not just cowboy boots) give off a sense of power i.e. power signals probably due to the confidence a woman must have to wear an item. Many women nowadays although they are very modern would still need some preparation before donning something as conspicuous as boots most especially leather boots that have high heels.

Wearing boots or cowboy boots for that matter is an individual thing. It does not necessarily mean that every person who wears them will be able to pull it off. It might be best to refer to photos with styles of cowboy boots and what outfits to wear with them. Individual style is of course important and you must never sacrifice that.

Whatever boots you are planning to wear, make sure that it suits your style and of course the place you are going to.

Wearing Cowboy Boots To The Office: The Real Score

Published by Sigrid under Cowboy Boots, Cowgirl Fashion

If you love wearing cowboy boots but work in a corporate environment, it might not be a good idea to wear cowboy boots at all. The question is why or for the more progressive thinkers why not? A lot of people have been complaining about this online (and those that we do not know of, probably complain about it offline)  –why can’t I wear my cowboy boots to work?

While some say it is a dress code violation others think it is one way for you to show you are creative with what you wear. There is no right or wrong answer here ladies and gentlemen, it just depends on the work environment i.e. your work place. If your work place for example allows casual wear and that it does not indicate in the company dress code that you cannot wear cowboy boots then wearing cowboy boots to work should not be a problem at all.

If you work in a prim and proper environment where everyone needs to don business attire type of clothes then your cowboy boots are a big no-no. More often than not, it’s the location that should be taken into consideration in this equation. If you are in Texas, you can most definitely wear cowboy boots just about anywhere and this includes the office unless of course says it’s a no-no.

If you are in New York City for example, you can still wear cowboy boots since pretty much anything goes in this place as long as you do not look like one of those cowboy characters in the movies. Wearing daisy dukes with them may not be appropriate in such a location though so basically it’s all about how you put your outfit together. One has to pay attention to what clothes are required at the workplace though.

Which Boot Height? You Decide

Published by Sigrid under Cowgirl Fashion

Timeless footwear is what we all seek and those who love Western wear will surely agree that a great pair of cowboy boots will go a long way.

As what any modern woman would say, a woman needs a few (sometimes more than a few) pairs of shoes and most of the time, we would get pairs that have very high heels and pairs that aren’t heeled. When it comes to cowboy boots however boot height is something you should always factor in.

Ankle Boots. They are quite fashionable and very comfortable too. They look great with pants and mini skirts.

Mid Calf Boots. This type of boots work great with many people but make sure that your legs are long enough to not look too short with these boots. They are quite flattering though if you know how to wear them. Your skirt should be below the knees though when wearing mid calf boots. You may also want to wear them with a great pair of jeans –that would surely look good on you whether you tuck the jeans in or the jeans over the boots.

KneeHigh Boots. Knee high boots are very sophisticated and can look quite nice even with on petite women as long as the skirt is a mini. If you think you are too short to wear knee high boots, it would be best to not wear them at all.

Over The Knee Boots. Now these can only be worn by those who are tall enough to don them. No one is stopping you if you want to wear over the knee boots but be sure to get the right size so it does not go up to your waist –which would be utterly mad.

The height of the heels is an important factor too. The only thing you should remember about this is making sure that you will be able to walk in those heels –if you are unable to walk in them, don’t buy them.
