Suede is the moment. When mixed in with cowboy boots, it brings just the right amount of drama to a summer outfit. It's bold and honestly a little unexpected. They pair especially well with a denim two-piece set because of the cool contrast. Plus, the soft, matte finish of suede adds depth to any look without clashing.

As an Accent Color

Pro tip: Cowboy boots are secretly one of the best ways to work an accent color into your outfit—especially when it's a bold shade like red. Unlike a jacket or top, boots don’t overwhelm the look, but they still pack a punch. A red pair instantly can anchor the rest of your outfit, especially when subtly echoed with matching accessories like a purse, belt, or even a lip.

With Casual Denim Shorts

It might seem like an obvious choice, but crisp denim shorts and cowboy boots are a great combo. They're classic, yes, but they also are easy and can be elevated to feel a little rebellious if you're into it (like with a sheer top). The clean lines of structured shorts balance out the rugged, lived-in vibe of the boot without going full costume. It works just as well with a white tank as it does with something frillier.

In Animal Style

Animal print cowboy boots are basically the cool-girl version of neutrals. They add an immediate visual interest without clashing with the rest of your outfit, making them surprisingly versatile. The contrast in color makes them pop just enough, so even if you’re wearing something simple (like a black slip dress or jeans and a tee), the boots do all the heavy lifting.

Under Loose Cargo Pants

Styling the footwear with loose denim cargo pants hits that perfect middle ground between utility and statement. The structured shaft of the boot peeking out from under the relaxed, slouchy fit of the cargos creates a laid-back silhouette that still looks curated. It's an unexpected pairing that plays with proportion: the toughness of the boots juxtaposes the looseness of the pants. Throw on a fitted tank or crop top up top, and suddenly you’ve got a look that’s equal parts streetwear and Western—with zero effort.

With Crisp Whites

Pairing cowboy boots with a crisp white dress create a beautifully sophisticated ensemble. You can experiment with fun patterns and colors on the boots, knowing the rest of the outfit is relatively simple. The pairing feels timeless and is rustic yet refined.

With All Black

Sometimes all you need is a textured touch to make an all-black outfit feel elevated. The monochrome hue already works so well, but with cowboy boots? Perfection. Use the dark palette of your clothing to keep things sleek and understated and the boots to add texture and shape to break up the look without disrupting it.

With Bold Patterned Maxis

Boho-chic can be achieved with a whimsical printed maxi dress and cool white boots. The crispness of the footwear will ground the flowing, free-spirited vibe of the dress while also adding structure that keeps the look from feeling too overwhelming. And with a bold pattern dress that draws the eye upward, the boots bring a bit of earthiness and edge to balance things out.

With a Lace Skirt

The next time you want a dainty look that is feminine yet edgy, slip on a lace skirt and ground it with your boots. The footwear brings a bit of tough, Western charm to the romantic vibe of the skirt, making the outfit feel less precious and more fashion-forward.

With a Corset

Whoever said cowboy boots didn't work for fancy outings just didn't have the right styling perspective. Here, black heeled boots look so classy next to a corset and skirt two-piece set. The look is then taken a step up with the addition of sheer white gloves that make it feel all the more elevated.
