Get The Western Look With These Wild Bags

Forget the picture-perfect image of traditional Southern Belles—if you could throw it back to a good ole’ American era it would be the glory days of the Wild West. There’s nothing you don’t love about that rugged look, and with fringe and leather galore, your sartorial taste is perfectly at home. If your heart is set on recreating the style that still makes you swoon, there’s no better way to put together this look than with a Western-style bag.

Read on as we curate the perfect western outfit for you to wear with your western bag, with tips on every garment you could possibly need to achieve it.

Shirt

Start off with a denim shirt in a pastel blue shade that will set the tone for the rest of your outfit. Or, if you’d rather slip into a simple blouse, wear your denim dose in the form of a jacket.

Skirt

Opt for a white, flowy skirt with crochet or lace detail, to keep the ensemble flirty and feminine. You may be galloping around on horses, but you’ll be damned if you don’t look ladylike doing it.

Belt

One of your outfit’s staples will be your chunky leather belt, so don’t forget to wear it low, buckled around your hips. After all, it needs to be in the perfect position to cradle your pistol.

Hat

Don’t take the western look overboard by opting for a cliché cowboy hat. Instead, give your headwear a modern twist with a beige fedora featuring a braided strap.

Boots

The same goes for boots. Don’t ruin your ensemble with predictable cowboy boots, but keep it sophisticated yet sexy when you slip into a pair of brown suede thigh-highs.

Bandana

Tie the whole look together with a bandana around your neck that screams “Don’t mess with me”. At least in spirit, you’re a bandit—so dress like one.

Now that you know what threads to throw together to match your western-style bag, giddy up and get ready to face the harsh conditions of the fashion world outback.
