Hats
No rodeo outfit is complete without the iconic Western hat, a symbol of frontier spirit and rugged style. From the classic cowboy hat to the stylish Stetson, there’s a wide array of options to suit every taste and personality. Whether you opt for a traditional felt hat for a timeless look or choose a straw hat for a more casual vibe, the right Western hat can instantly elevate your outfit and give you confidence as you navigate the bustling streets of the Houston rodeo this year. Embrace the wide brims and let your hat be a statement piece that ties your entire Western-inspired look together with flair and authenticity.
NOTE: I am personally not a fan of floppy hats, I feel like a true curved western hat is more timeless if you ask me.
Bandana
Don’t overlook the bandana when adding western accessories to your rodeo-ready ensemble! This versatile accessory not only adds a pop of color and pattern to your outfit. Whether worn around the neck for a classic Western touch or even used as a statement accessory on your bag or wrist, the bandana adds a playful and adventurous touch to any outfit. With limitless options of colors and prints to choose from, you can easily mix and match bandanas to complement your Western hat and attire, creating a cohesive and stylish ensemble that’s as functional as it is fashionable.
NOTE: I LOVE the fringe bandanas. They are my *fav*.
Bolo Ties
For a distinctive touch of Western charm, look no further than the bolo tie. This unique accessory, characterized by its braided leather cord and ornamental slide, adds a touch of sophistication to any rodeo outfit. Whether you prefer a traditional silver concho slide or a more contemporary design featuring gemstones or intricate patterns, the bolo tie offers endless possibilities for personal expression.
Wear it with a crisp button-down shirt for a refined look, or layer it over a denim jacket for a laid-back yet polished vibe. With its roots deeply embedded in Western heritage, the bolo tie is a timeless Western accessory that effortlessly merges style with tradition, making it a must-have for any rodeo aficionado looking to make a statement with their attire.
Belts
Cinch your waist in with a Western belt to complete the look. A Western belt is the ultimate accessory for adding a touch of cowgirl flair to your rodeo fit. With options ranging from classic leather with big buckles to bold designs with turquoise accents, there’s a style for every taste. Not only practical, but these belts also serve as statement pieces, instantly elevating your look and tying your outfit together with rustic charm.
