20 Cowgirl Boots Outfit Ideas With Dresses, Shorts and Jeans

Looking for a cowgirl boots outfit that goes beyond jeans and a hat? Think white ruffled skirts, floral dresses or shiny pink boots with cutoffs.

There’s plenty to choose from here, including a couple of looks with different shoes that you can adapt with your own western boots.

You can keep things simple or go all out. I especially love the red boots with black.

Start with your favorite pair, then decide whether you want a plain tee, a little fringe or something dressier.

Outfit ideas to pair with your cowgirl boots

brown sweater and cutoffs

We’re starting off strong with this cute brown sweater and light-blue shorts combo. I love the tall brown boots with their pale stitching.

Pair yours with a dark baseball cap and sunglasses to follow this look. The cream shoulder bag is a pretty little addition too.

flowers and a brown hat

How cute is this floral dress? The little flowers get denser around the waist and hem, with brown boots pictured beside it.

Give your boots outfit cowgirl flair with a wide-brimmed hat like the one in this collage. I especially love the turquoise-colored details around the band.

black vest and tall boots

I am obsessed with this all-black outfit. The button-front vest and short skirt look so good with those tall stitched boots.

Try a black belt with a large silver-tone buckle at your waist. Don’t forget the black cowboy hat if you want the whole combination.

blue vest and white ruffles

This white skirt may just be one of my favorites here. I love the little trimmed edges on the ruffles, especially with the pointed hem of the pale blue vest.

Keep the brown boots and cream hat if you want to try the same mix.

blue shirt dress and white boots

If you are looking for something simple to put together, this one is for you. A blue button-front shirt dress and white cowboy boots make such a cute pair.

Add a silver-tone concho belt around the dress. That row of oval decorations is my favorite detail.

graphic tee and blue jeans

Don’t want to go all out with a hat and fringe? No problem! Try a black graphic tee with blue jeans and a black belt.

The pointed black boot toes peek out below the hems. I’d keep that tan shoulder bag for a little change from the black accessories.

brown fringe and flared jeans

The fringe fans are going to love this! A brown fringed vest sits over a loose white tee, with flared blue jeans underneath.

This look actually has tan open-back shoes rather than boots. Swap them for brown cowgirl boots if you want to bring this combination into your western wardrobe.

red boots and a black mini

How gorgeous are these red boots? Not gonna lie, the pale stitching makes them even better!

The black mini skirt, black top and oversized biker jacket leave plenty of room for that bright red.

Try a dark red bag like this one rather than matching the boots exactly.

dark slip dress

If you’re looking for a dressier outfit without lots of extra pieces, go with this long dark slip dress and black western boots. I love the pale beaded necklace against the deep V-neckline.

cream sweater and white skirt

I love this cream sweater with the short white tiered skirt. The small brown bag is such a pretty addition.

The tan boots here have rounded toes and chunky soles rather than a classic western shape. Try pointed tan cowgirl boots instead if that’s the look you’re after.

black tee and blue mini

Don’t want to add patterns and want something super simple? This black tee and blue mini skirt pairing is for you.

The tall black boots match the shoulder bag.

Tuck your tee in to show a big gold-tone buckle like this one. A couple of short necklaces finish it off.

I’d leave the lower buttons open like this so a little more of the shorts shows.

white pants and brown cardigan

The white and brown pairing is so pretty in this outfit. I love how the cropped cardigan matches the belt, with dark brown footwear peeking out beneath the wide hems.

Try white wide-leg pants with your own brown boots if you want a change from blue jeans.

oversized tee and little ruffles

I am obsessed with the little white ruffles showing below this oversized graphic tee. They’re such a cute detail next to the tall dark brown boots.

Add a tan cowboy hat if you want to follow this outfit. You don’t need a big belt here.

white dress and tan stitching

If you love a white dress, this one might be your favorite. The puffed sleeves and deep neckline look lovely with the tan stitched boots.

Try a few necklaces in different lengths like these. I’d keep the boots visible through the skirt opening rather than hiding them completely.

blue jumpsuit and big buckle

How cute is this flared jumpsuit? The short sleeves, button front and wide legs give you plenty to work with without needing a separate top.

A brown belt with a large rectangular buckle sits at the waist. Keep a pointed boot toe peeking below each hem, then add a dark cowboy hat.

pink boots and blue cutoffs

These shiny pink boots are just too cute not to save. I love them with the pale graphic tank, blue cutoffs and oversized blue jacket.

If you want to try colorful boots without changing your whole outfit, this is a lovely starting point. Keep your usual shorts and switch the shoes.

blue cap and lace-trimmed shorts

This is another oversized tee look, but it’s a little different from the one above. Black lace-trimmed shorts peek out beneath the white shirt.

The blue cap picks up the blue lettering on the tee. Those tall black boots with pale stitching are my favorite part of the combination.

white gown and western boots

Want to go a little dressier? This all-white look goes all out with a long gown, white cowboy hat and matching boots.

I love the draped neckline and off-the-shoulder sleeves. The high skirt slit lets you see the pale decorative stitching on the boots.

long coat and tucked pants

Last but definitely not least, we have this pretty layered outfit. I love the olive coat over the taupe turtleneck!

The white pants are tucked into brown pointed boots.

Try a fringed shoulder bag if you want one more western detail. The long fringe looks so good beside the plain coat.
