How to Put Together a Coastal Cowgirl Look
Combining the rugged charm of Western wear with the breezy, laid-back vibe of coastal fashion, the Coastal Cowgirl look started circulating as a fashion trend hashtag last year. But really, the look has been around in various forms for a couple of decades, such as festival wear and just a great summer look.
But no doubt, the release of Beyoncé's album, "Cowboy Carter," which came out in March, has brought country music to a broader and more diverse audience, making Western wear a hot trend this year.
If you want to bring the fusion of styles that juxtapose hard and soft elements to create interest and tension of the two sides of your personality or taste, this look is for you.
Here's how to put together a coastal cowgirl look.
Go With White
Breezy, gauzy white cotton is perfect for the Coastal Cowgirl look. Look for soft and loose separates or dresses for hot summer days. This is where boho and cottagecore somewhat overlap. You can also pair a light white top with denim shorts or a skirt to accentuate that hard and soft look even more. Shop a breezy white blouse.
Textured Accessories
Next, layer on accessories. Look for leather earrings, beads, turquoise jewelry, tooled leather or Western bolo ties to create that Western flair, but make it a little loose for that rugged beach vibe. You don't want to be buttoned up or wearing anything too high-end fancy when romping in the sun and sand. Shop leather belt.
Cowgirl Meets Beach Babe
Lastly, don't forget your cowboy hat and boots for the ultimate cowgirl look when you step out. And grab a big straw bag for all your beach essentials. It's really surprising how well these pieces go together when you see all the natural textured materials in one outfit. Then you're ready to hit the beach - or go to a Beyoncé concert! Shop cowboy hat.
