How to Wear the Western Fashion Trend

1. Mix Classic with Cowgirl 

Fall’s western trend isn’t about looking like a ranch hand in an oversized plaid shirt and dusty jeans. It’s about stepping up in the saddle in a refined, polished, urban cowgirl look.

The best way to get this elevated Western look is to wear classic pieces with a small cowgirl twist.

I’ve paired raw hem jeans with a western-inspired ruffle-neck blouse, then added a slouchy suede bag, and the latest sleek cowboy booties.

2. Pair Everyday Jeans with a Dramatic Piece

Another way to mix classic with cowgirl is to pair classic everyday blue jeans with one dramatic western piece like this fabulous Paisley fringe jacket from Farm Rio. It’s bold but not costumey, so long as you keep the rest of your look clean and simple.

3. Give a Floral Dress an Edgy Western Look 

Another easy way to style a modern Western outfit is to wear a floral dress with urban cowgirl accessories.

Choose a midi floral dress like this black velevet burnout dress and wear it with sleek urban-style cowboy boots, hammered gold earrings,  and an embellished western bag. Dark floral prints work very well because the dark black background automatically makes the floral print more edgy and city-slicker.

4. Accent Jeans with Western Accessories 

Western-themed accessories are fun and easy to add to your wardrobe and don’t have to cost an arm and a leg if you shop around.

Look for western-inspired scarves, antique-looking jewelry, fringed bags, and the latest cowgirl booties, and a suede jacket you can wear with  straight leg jeans and a cute top like this braided western shirt.

You can wear a single Western accessory like a Rodeo belt, and that’s just fine. Or you may want to wear a few, depending on your style.

Pair cowboy-inspired accessories with your favorite basics, like cropped jeans and a chunky sweater.  That’s all you need to get the western vibe.

Now giddy up and go get ’em, cowgirl!

  1. Embracing the Western fashion trend in modern styles is so exciting! It’s great to see how classic elements like boots and denim can be reimagined for contemporary looks. Mixing textures and layering can really elevate this trend. I’m inspired to incorporate some Western flair into my wardrobe!

  2. I liked how you mentioned that you should mix classic with cowgirl to get an excellent Western look. My daughter is going to a Rodeo soon and wants to ensure that she looks appropriate for the occasion. I’ll tell her she should go for classic with cowgirl to get an excellent Western look.
