Dear La Couturier,<\/em><\/p>\n

First let me start off by saying that I am head over heels, completely in love with your blog! However, you probably already know that. I have always adored your posts where someone will request something, and you will give them little tips. You give fabulous advice, by the way. So I thought that I would ask you for some advice myself. I just recently bought the Frye ‘Jane 14’ Tall Pull-On Boot at Nordstrom<\/a>. I already had a pair of biker boots, so I thought that I would opt for something different. Now most days I dress very classy, but some days I love to go for the grunge-chic look. With that, I have made many outfits with my new boots that don’t look too “cowgirl”, which is what I was going for. So, that said, I was wondering if you could give me some tips or outfit ideas so I could have your perspective on how to wear my new boots. I understand that you are very busy and probably get hundred of these requests, so I understand if you can’t help me.<\/em><\/p>\n

Thank you for taking your time to read all of this! \ud83d\ude42<\/em><\/p>\n

The cowboy boot has ventured into the shoe racks deemed trend-forward, creeping its way to a spot between much-adored and sought after biker boots. At what point the cowboy officially became popular once more lies in the gray area – but there is one thing that we do know without a doubt. They have made their comeback.<\/p>\n

By no means does the aforementioned statement mean that this particular shoe is for everyone; depending on taste and personal style, your liking (or disliking) for the cowboy boot will<\/em> differ. For most it is a love or hate situation; some adore the nostalgic reference to the southwestern culture of the United States; others look over it as (and I shall be rather blunt with this) tacky and irrelevant. I have neither extremities in feelings for this trend – I will, however, only admire it on others from afar.<\/p>\n

But incorporating such a shoe is, by no means, easy. It so happens to be one of those pieces that either makes or breaks an outfit. An outfit “gone wrong” (again, this is all personal opinion) could result in an exact (borderline tacky) rendition of those historical ranchers. Yet when worn “right”, the effect is undoubtedly and undeniably chic<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The boots in question? The Frye “Jane 14” Tall Pull-On Boots<\/a>. The perfect blend of the classic<\/em> boot with a touch of western.<\/em><\/p>\n
