Cowboy up!

I love clothes and shoes that give personality to a look but we have to be extra careful with some pieces as to not make them us look like a character (unless you want it to). When I fell in love with these Cowboy boots, I promised to myself I’d never wear them with patterned flannel shirts, jeans skirts, or Cowboy belts (argh!). Because the cool effect of pieces like this is to use them in a unexpected way in order to avoid being stereotyped. Have a nice week!

Adoro pecas e sapatos que deem personalidade a um look, mas e preciso ter um cuidado redobrado com essas pecas, para nao incorporar um personagem, a nao ser que voce queira. Quando me apaixonei por essas botas cowboy, prometi a mim mesma que jamais as usaria com xadrez, com saia jeans ou com um cinto cowboy (argh!). Porque o ” legal” dessas pecas, e usa-las de maneira  improvavel, e se livrar o maximo possivel de estereotipos. Boa semana!

    I do love when people are able to contrast otherwise obvious elements into something different. We should never take fashion too literally ;)

    I think you combined those cowboy boots perfectly! I agree, that pairing it with a flannel shirt or any other cowboy cliche would have made it look like a costume. They look terrific with your outfit… love the handmade bracelet and that gorgeous bag and jacket! You look fantastic as always :)

    Hi Raquel!

    I’m soooo excited! Got my sequined shrug from Topshop a few minutes ago. You’re the inspiration for it. Hmmm. Hoping I can pull it off the way you do!

    Well, the trick is finding that correct style that fits you. I have no problems in seeing a cowgirl with the boots and hats if it truly represents that true persona and style.

  26. Linda linda! amei o look!
