Uptown Cowgirl Fashion Tips

Amy Brantley
For some women, nothing beats the feel of a pair of worn-in blue jeans, a pair of boots and a straw hat. However, there are those times when the look needs a bit of polishing. Whether you're headed to a concert or out clubbing with the girls, there are ways to make your outfit look more uptown while still maintaining the charm of the cowgirl look. Best of all, you won't have to spend a lot of extra money throwing together this look.

Trade Your Worn-In Jeans for Dark Boot-Cut Jeans

It may seem daunting to go shopping for a pair of new jeans when you spent all that time making your current jeans extra comfortable. However, nothing beats the look of dark boot-cut jeans. Not only do they allow you to keep the cowgirl look, but they look sophisticated at the same time. If you want, you can even shop for jeans that have embroidery on the pockets to add a bit of flare. If you spend a bit of time shopping, you can even find brands that make super-soft jeans. This means you'll get the feel of worn-in jeans, but look awesome.

Swap Your Button-Up Shirts for Solid Knit Tops

If you want a look that fits the uptown vibe, a solid knit top is your best bet. Not only are they extremely comfortable, but they are simple enough that they pair beautifully with dark boot-cut jeans. Best of all, almost any color will match with your dark jeans. Of course, a solid black or white tee will never be out of style. If you want to look sexy, choose a knit top in a stretchy fabric. It will hug your curves and still give you that cowgirl appearance.

Upgrade Your Boots

A pair of boots can be hard to break in, but if you want to look more uptown, it's necessary to upgrade your boots. A pair of black ankle boots with a pointed toe maintains that sexy cowgirl look, but fits in almost anywhere. You can even find ankle boots that have the same type of heel as your favorite cowgirl boots.

Invest in a New Hat

While straw hats can be cute and extremely sexy, a more uptown look is to go with a wool felt cowgirl hat. These hats are well-loved by country music stars and are the perfect accessory for a concert or hitting the clubs. You will have to pay around $40, but it's well worth the investment.
