Since last week I shared a evening rodeo outfit, this week I wanted to give you a outfit to wear during the day. Yep, I pulled out my cowboy boots for this one! I love boots that are a little more simple with the stitching being a neutral color. I also really like the worn in look of some cowboy boots. You know a “I totally did some farm work in these” look. 🙂 One of my favorite things about cowboy boots are the beautiful designs on the boot shaft. It adds such a great detail to the boot and makes each pair unique and different. Cowboy boots are pricey, easily starting around $150 and going up from there. If you are in the Houston area, some of the local western wear shops will start having sales on all things rodeo soon. It’s a great time to buy a pair of boots. I also created a little widget for you at the bottom of this post with more boots available online.
While comfy walking shoes are a must for a full day at the rodeo, light layers are also important. The rodeo hosts both indoor and outdoor events, so I like having a light jacket with me in case the indoor areas are cold. Plus, our rodeo weather sometimes is a little cool at night since it is in March. I love the idea of using a chambray shirt as more of a jacket in this look. During the day, you can easily tie the chambray top around your waist if this happens to be a warmer day. At night or if it’s a cool spring day, you can wear just like this. Using a chambray as more of a jacket, you will not have to tote a bulky jacket around all day. I have a floral tunic on underneath it. Florals and plaids always make me think western wear and rodeo. I also highly recommend a cross-body purse for the rodeo!! The place is crowded and a small bag makes it easier to maneuver through crowds, plus it frees your hands for drinks, food, and shopping!

It is officially Rodeo season in Texas! Every year in February and March rodeo fever invades this great state with Livestock Shows and Rodeos happening all over. Fort Worth is currently in the middle of their show, followed by San Antonio, and then rounding out the bunch is the Houston Rodeo. I have talked before about the Houston Rodeo here and here. It’s basically a carnival, a rodeo featuring things like bull riding and barrel racing, concerts, shopping, and lots of fun food. My friends and I are big fans of the wine garden too. You can often find us there grabbing a glass before we head into the concert.
Over the next few weeks, I wanted to share a few outfit ideas for what to wear to the rodeo. While most people immediately think cowboy boots, I wanted to share an outfit for those of you who may not be ready to shell out a couple hundred for a pair. I think these taupe over the knee boots are perfect for a little wine garden and concert action. I would make sure if you wear a heeled boot that they are comfortable for hours of walking. Sometimes just getting from your car to the entrance is a long walk. On weeknights, my friends and I usually go after work for just a couple hours, so heeled boots are an option for these nights since we do not walk around too much. I wanted to give a little bit of a rustic western feel, so I paired them with my plaid top. I think the two together with a fun pendant necklace create the perfect Houston rodeo outfit. If you are heading to cookoff this year, I would not recommend wearing these suede boots. The smoke coming off all the bbq pits is really strong. I usually have to wash my clothes a couple times to get the strong smell out. It’s why I wouldn’t recommend these boots or any other item that may be hard to wash. You could easily swap them with a pair of leather riding boots for cookoff. Don’t worry I will share an idea or two of what to wear to the rodeo cookoff too, so stay tuned!
