6 Summer Cowboy Boot Outfits That Are Extremely Stylish

We might be moving towards peak summertime but if you took a walk around the city, you might not have guessed it. With jackets and cosy knits still required, you would be forgiven for thinking we’re exiting the summer season, not entering it.

Whilst I’m not entirely pleased by the situation, there isn’t any blame to allocate here. With UK temperatures sitting at a cool sub 20°, it makes sense that we’ve been slower to pack away some pieces we wear in the colder months this time around. So slow in fact that I’ve counted more cowboy boots in recent days than I have strappy sandals.

Still a mainstay in our wardrobe rotations, cowboy boots are proving to be the footwear staple we can’t bear to part with. As with most boot styles, you might commonly associate them with winter, but cowboy boots have shown that they’re just as relevant for the warmer months, too. Of course, they offer the extra insulation that we need during these in-between days, but in all honesty, it’s their styling successes that make me want to keep them in my summer rotation.

Looking undeniably great with denim shorts, simple dresses and cotton skirts, it’s little wonder why so many cool dressers have been wearing them this week. Of course, Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour may have something to do with it, but cowboy boots have long been relied upon for music festivals and other summer pursuits, meaning that no one will raise an eyebrow when they see you wearing them. In fact, they’ll probably think you look extra stylish for doing so, for this is exactly how I felt when I saw the below outfits.

If you, too are keen to give your favourite boots another lease of life, read on to discover the summer cowboy boots outfits that you can wearing throughout the warmest months.

HOW TO WEAR COWBOY BOOTS DURING SUMMER

1. PUFF SLEEVE DRESS + WICKER BAG

Style Notes: Contrasting the hardy nature of the tall leather boots, a pretty puff sleeve dress will add a feminine feel to your summer outfit. To amp up the summery spirit, style with a trending wicker bag and keep your favourite shades within arms distance at all times.
