A Western renaissance is upon us again thanks to a crop of labels and A-listers who have made the best women’s cowboy boots their signature, from Khaite and Isabel Marant to Emily Ratajowski, Bella Hadid, and Katie Holmes. Indeed, the style is both rodeo-ready and street style-approved.
The Best Cowboy Boots, According to Vogue
If trousers with sneakers were your go-to closet combination for winter, then it’s time to make a stylish swap in favor of the best women’s cowboy boots for spring. From knee-high to ankle boots, the style is versatile enough to pair with any of your spring wardrobe essentials. Just take cues from Emily Ratajowski who nailed transitional dressing in her calf-length suede boots. She wore them with an oversized leather bomber jacket, black midi dress, and gold jewelry. Katie Holmes put together a similarly covetable winter-to-spring look by styling a white pair of cowboy boots with a camel coat, grey sweater, and light-wash jeans. A simple black shoulder bag completed her look.

Both of these celeb outfits are easily replicable, though, if you want more spring-forward styling, consider another classic formula by pairing leather or suede boots with a floral dress to match the warm-weather aesthetic. For a more cool-girl take, consider tucking a baggy jean into the boot shaft to show off intricate detailing. Speaking of, each pair should come uniquely adorned, like Paris Texas’ flower-embroidered option or Free People’s lived-in boots with with an etched metal toe.
