Cowboy boots 101: What to wear with the western inspired shoe trend

One of the most popular shoe trends to come out of this year is the cowboy boot.  

Fitting in among the western and boho style, it feels like 2024 has been a revival of pre 2000s fashion trends, with an added modern twist. Honestly, we’re here for it all.  

Whilst these boots might feel a little harder to style than most other trends, you’d be surprised at just how many things you can wear them with. Their more subtle design means incorporating these western-inspired shoes is simply about using them to add a bit of fun and character to your outfit. 

Sticking with a pair of black cowboy boots will make your choice easier, given that they’ll go with pretty much anything. From midi dresses and denim skirts to flared jeans and tailored trousers, we’ve covered all the best ways to wear these boots for any occasion.

For A Festival 

You can never go wrong with wearing cowboy boots to a festival. Whilst festival clothing is quite varied depending on your personal style, crochet is always a good choice. Match your new boots with a pair of denim shorts and a crochet top for the ultimate western vibes.

For A Coffee Date 

Another 2024 trend has been the revival of the denim midi skirt, giving 90s nostalgia. Combine these two trends and team western boots with a blue split denim skirt and a white shirt to keep things looking simple but chic.
