You might have noticed we're a bit shoe obsessed here at Who What Wear. So far this season, we've written stories about our favorite knee-high boots, the cutest clogs on the market, and the top celeb-approved boot styles, just to name a few. And now, allow me to turn your attention to a trend that's surging in popularity: cowboy boots.
You could argue that Western-inspired boots are a true classic that will come back each and every fall season, but this year, there seems to be a fervently renewed interest that I haven't seen previously. When you have FKA Twigs, Dua Lipa, and Emily Ratajkowski all wearing cowboy boots—not to mention a slew of influencers too—they're bound to become a hot commodity. Scroll down to shop cowboy-boot outfit ideas for fall 2022.
1. With a Skirt Set
On Dua Lipa: Diesel top and skirt; Montserrat Messeguer boots
Mango never gets it wrong.
Long skirts are hugely popular right now.
These boots are truly something special.
Crossbody bags are the most practical handbag style out there.
2. With a Blazer and Bootcut Jeans
I love these retro sunnies.
It doesn't get any more classic than this.
Bootcut jeans are back, baby.
I have a feeling these cute cowboy boots will sell out on Nordstrom's website.
3. With a Printed Dress and Suede Jacket
Suede jackets are perfect for fall.
This dress would look so cool with Western boots.
Steve Madden has long been my go-to for well-priced shoes.
Cowboy boots deserve to be paired with a Western-inspired bag, right?
4. With a Slip Dress
Since we're heading into fall and winter, I figured a midi length would be more practical for you.
Don't sleep on Reformation's fantastic shoe selection.
This $50 bag is just so darn cute.
5. With a Tennis Skirt and Tights
How cute is this bear graphic?
Yes, you can wear a tennis skirt even if you don't know your forehand from your backhand.
I prefer semiopaque tights rather than sheer or completely opaque versions.
Another excellent option if you're in the market for new cowboy boots.
Don't forget the bandana.
6. With a Cargo Miniskirt
On Emily Ratajkowski: Orseund Iris top; Adanola skirt; Balenciaga bag; Sonora boots
Faithfull the Brand always gets it right.
Pair this skirt with tights come winter.
A great Western belt is a must to complete the look.
