If you had asked me before the Super Bowl whether or not cowboy boots would be a big trend in 2024, I would likely have told you there are other shoe trends more worth investing in. But then Beyoncé entered the chat. Since the announcement of her eighth studio album, Cowboy Carter, and the release of two country singles, “Texas Hold Em” and “16 Carriages,” searches for all things cowboy core have skyrocketed. This includes people once again looking into how to wear cowboy boots with a distinctly 2024 spin.
Because, believe it or not, the styling tricks I’m seeing pop up all over my Instagram and TikTok feeds are not the same ones I saw last time these boots were top of our shopping wishlists. This time around, cowboy boots are being worn with more glamour than before. This could come by way of silver boots, intricate designs or elaborate stitching. Or you can opt for a more classic style and pair it with a chic minidress, glittery jewelry or sharp leather tailoring. Read on for 20 ways to wear cowboy boots like a true fashion pro in 2024.
17 Jean Jacket Outfits That Are Super Easy to Copy—Plus 1 You Should Probably Skip
1. Rancher Hat + Shirtdress + Classic Boots
Christian Vierig/Getty Image
Let’s start with the basics—rather than go all out western, mix your brown or black boots with a shirtdress in a heavier fabric (like denim or flannel) and top it off with a felt rancher or similar wide-brim hat. The result is a fabulous blending of true cowboy style and city chic.

2. Black Denim Jacket + Black Jeans + Contrasting Boots
Claudio Lavenia/Getty Images
If you’re more of a pants gal, try a fresher, reworked version of the Canadian tuxedo (aka, denim on denim) by way of clean black washes with no distressing. Even better if they have high-fashion details, like interesting seams or structured shoulders. Keep your accessories on the modern side (yes to a structured lady bag, no to a fringe-trimmed tote) to really amp up the style factor.

3. Structured Jacket + T-Shirt + Shorts + Cowboy Boots
Edward Berthelot/Getty Images
Yes, you can wear shorts with cowboy boots and not wind up looking like Daisy Duke. The key is to choose both shorts and boots with a more polished vibe. Think longer hem lengths, clean washes or non-denim options paired with black leather or suede that doesn’t slouch. Top it off with a structured jacket—like a blazer—that hits within two inches of your hips and voilà!

5. Neutral Basics + Statement Boots
Jeremy Moeller/Getty Images
Beyoncé’s version of country is all about statement pieces—metallics and color and fun—but that doesn’t mean you necessarily need to go for head-to-toe glam. Opt for a pair of stand-out boots and pair them with neutral-hued separates to really allow them to steal the spotlight. Just be sure to repeat one other bold pop up top (a studded collar, a silver shoulder bag, oversize hoops) to ensure a cohesive look.

7. White Top + White Skirt + White Boots

When in doubt, try a monochromatic look. Head-to-toe brown or beige can often fall flat, and brighter shades might be a bit overwhelming, but white clothes paired with white boots makes for a chic ensemble that even the most minimalist fashionista will feel comfortable in. Play around with different textures or subtle patterns, like denim with white-and-silver snakeskin, to add some depth to the look.

Be sure to add some contrasting pops, like a gold belt buckle or bold chain necklace, or allow some skin to show to prevent your figure from turning into an amorphous blob.

You can also choose a looser, oversize blazer to really lean into the casual nature, or go for a cropped, structured jacket if you want something more prim.

Play off the preppy cap-toe flats trend by pairing your Blair Waldorf skirt set with some two-tone cowboy boots instead. The ruggedness of the boots offsets a prim matching set and gives your look a cool girl edge even the Queen of the UES would approve of.

Remember, fashion is supposed to be fun, especially when it involves bolder styles. So if you want to wear your western footwear with other overtly western accessories, I say go for it! Whatever makes you feel happy and confident is a fashion win, in my opinion.
