Hey Cowboy

cowboyboots
I recently bought a pair of gently worn cowboy boots from a great local vintage boutique, and while I have all sorts of ideas for them come spring (floral skirts! sundresses!), I'm not sure what I should and should not wear them with right now.

Can I wear them in place of my Uggs (if I were to wear Uggs, which I definitely don't. Unless it's really cold, or really snowy, or really slushy which is every day of winter on my Midwest campus)? Can I wear them with leggings? With tights? With cardigans and cableknit sweaters to class? With little dresses and opaque tights for a night out?

These are only a few of the many questions floating around in my mind. Very luckily, I just came across Ellenitza, the adorable blog of a girl who really knows how to work her cowboy boots. It sort of blows my mind how she makes them look so cool — and so not country, even when worn with things like plaid and flannel.

Do you own cowboy boots? How do you wear yours?
