Calling All Cowgirls! Here's All the Western Wear Inspo You Need (2024)

Western wear has transcended its roots on the ranch to become a celebrated style that blends rugged practicality and tradition with current-day trends. Whether you're looking at the city streets or the runway, you'll see classic cowgirl staples such as cowboy boots, cowboy hats, and flared jeans having a well-deserved moment. Look even closer and you'll also see Western motifs, such as fringe, denim, and leather, all being reimagined for the modern wardrobe.

Though there's certainly been a ranch wear resurgence, this style is nothing new for the Drummond family. In fact, when you grow up on Drummond ranch, cowboy boots are just as commonplace as diapers. You could say it's not their first rodeo! With that, there's no better place to turn for cowgirl chic inspiration than Alex and Paige Drummond.

Whether you're gearing up for a rodeo of your own, need cowgirl outfits for a country concert (or a trip to Pawhuska), or are simply looking to infuse your daily wardrobe with a touch of the Wild West, we've lassoed up some ideas straight from the Drummond ladies themselves. So, keep scrolling to check out their ensembles, then say "howdy" to some similar shoppable pieces! One thing is for sure: They're certifiably country!

Modern Maverick

Get ready to saddle up in style! Though these outfits seen on Alex and Paige might be a little too dressy for Drummond ranch, they're just right for any occasion that calls for leaning into your country roots—or anytime you find yourself wanting to wear some cowgirl-esque attire. It hardly gets more Wild West than a nice pair of jeans and cowboy boots, so go ahead and start there.

On top, choose fabrics like suede, denim, and leather for that authentic cowpoke vibe. You can even stick to a natural color palette that speaks to all those prairie lands. Think: rust, beige, and brown. Alex and Paige opted for cozy shackets that are made even spiffier with the addition of chic cowboy hats on their heads and beautiful bandanas tied around their necks.

Country Chic

The Drummonds know a thing or two about cowboys—and that includes both working as a cowboy and cheering on the OSU Cowboys. After all, Bryce Drummond plays for the Pokes! To elevate a classic cowgirl look for events outside of the ranch, switch out your bootcut jeans for flared wide-leg denim or a denim skirt. Pair them with a crisp blouse and your favorite cowboy boots before topping off the look with a stylish cowboy hat. Whether you’re gearing up for game day or hitting the town, these outfits are playful, polished, and pretty simple to recreate.

Rock the Rodeo

Rock that rodeo queen vibe with an all-black ensemble that is sure to steal the show. With Alex's outfit, a lacy blouse and sleek skinny jeans come together for a mix of feminine poise and rugged edge that would be perfect for both the stockyards or a night spent two-stepping.

You can copy her outfit by starting with a base of flattering denim and a pretty top, then accessorizing to the max. As for accessories, she chose a leather crossbody bag, a western statement belt, and plenty of jewelry to tie it all together. Alex is also kicking up some dust (in the most dazzling way) with color-coordinating cowboy boots and an embellished cowboy hat. For even more fun, consider choosing boots in a bold hue.

Prairie Princess

A flowing sundress with a pair boots brings the best of frontier fashion to life. While you can choose to don any dress, this little white number seen on Paige is ideal for frolicking through the countryside or attending festivals—especially when styled with a lightweight straw cowboy hat.

You can also try out playful patterns (paisley, Western florals, and even cow print) and rich colors. It's part Western, part bohemian, and all-around amazing. To add a little more flair, take a cue from Paige and slip on some silver and turquoise jewelry. You can also make a dress more seasonal by layering it with a fringed suede or distressed denim jacket.

Denim Diva

Nothing says Western wear like a dash of denim! Whether you choose denim shorts like Paige or a short denim skirt like Alex, these outfits combines both cute and comfortable style with just the right amount of country charm. A simple tank top with a button-up shirt only adds to that theme.

The Drummond girls wore these looks to a country concert, but they'd be just as on brand for a county fair or other casual outing. Of course, they had to incorporate cowboy boots, leather belts, and turquoise jewelry as well! And while they didn't break out the cowboy hats this time around, you could try out a trucker hat to add to your inner cowgirl without being too on the nose.
