Perfect Autumn/Winter footwear
Western style or cowgirl boots are hot right now.
They make for the perfect Autumn/Winter footwear. BUT they are western style boots… Are they worth the investment?
My take, there is no time like the present.
Beth Dutton’ styling of western style boots on Yellowstone is putting these boots in the frame style wise. Confirming the trend, western style boots were everywhere at Coachella 2023!
Selecting a western style boot offers the choice of fully embracing the style or choosing a boot that is ‘in the style of’ a cowgirl boot. The later approach prevents buyer’s remorse once the ‘on trend’ caravan moves on.
Where to find the perfect western style boot for you?
Start with RM Williams. RM Williams’ classic The Maya boot with its block heel it will be in style for years to come. To fully embrace the look, check out the suede Tabbita or the Minburra boots they also offer. If suede appeals look at the Dallas boot available from The Iconic.
Upscale and not designed for music festival conditions is Sophie Webster’s Shelby Mule. To create a Barbie x Country moment it also comes in Pink! For an ankle boot try the Sophia Webster x LoveShackFancy Shelby Mid Ankle Boot.
Offering authenticity locally is Outback Traders. They are the Australian stockists of Ariat. Options include a western cowgirl; boho cowgirl that has all the embellishment you could want plus a practical heel, and the urban cowgirl.
You do not have to ride a horse to embrace this trend. I am lusting after a pair of Cavallo riding boots stocked by Horse in the Box in Yarra Glen in the Yarra Valley. Just do not ask about the price!
Looking for vegan options? How about an Ilse Jacobsen knee high lace up option?
