The OG boot

If you like classics, a black or brown boot is the way to go. Traditional cowboy boots are made from leather, but you can also find them in suede and vegan leather. With this streamlined boot, the outfit possibilities are endless. Black boots can be styled with a black mini skirt and bright red top for a fun pop of color. For a more casual look, pair brown boots with jeans and a chunky pink sweater. Black and brown cowboy boots are an essential for every closet.

Blues, pinks and metallics

Now that cowboy boots are hot, retailers are offering more variations on the traditional boot. These chic shoes come in any color you want—hot pink, silver, red—and you can find the perfect pair to brighten up everyday outfits. A super easy way to style colorful boots is with a pair of blue jeans and a frilly top. Or, if you're feeling fancy, try wearing them with a long black maxi dress and some chunky silver jewelry.
