A chill may remain in the air, but summer style is officially upon us in sunny California, and we’re excited about the sneak peak of trending summer fashion seen at the Coachella music festival that is sure to be at the top of everyone’s must-have list this summer.

Summer Fashion Trends

Here are the pieces that set the stage for summer ...

Soft sacks are the bag to be seen with and prairie is the new boho with slip dresses moving to the top of the list (with or without a super soft t-shirt underneath), and paired with thigh-high boots!

Pair a gauzy top and skinny jeans with booties, or a tie-front blouse, denim cut-offs and classic cowboy boots.

The bare shoulder trend continues with off-the-shoulder dresses or tops with boyfriend jeans paired with cute booties -- the perfect combination of comfort and style.

Take a long cardigan with you to ward off the chill of the desert nights and wear it over denim cut-offs accessorized with a fabulous tote bag.

And what about men's style, you ask? You can never go wrong with a vintage t-shirt and a trophy buckle with your denim.

When in doubt, don’t think twice about slipping on your favorite pair of cowboy boots. With so much style and versatility, from ankle boots to tall boots and everything in between, there's endless ways to wear cowboy boots.

Express yourself this season. Find your favorite styles at Boot Star.

It's that time of year again! Music is in the air as people gather to hear their favorite bands and rock the new summer looks. Need some help? Whether you prefer the indie, hip-hop vibe of the Coachella Valley Music Festival or you're more of a country music fan at the Stagecoach Festival, we've got your favorite festival fashion picks.

Start at the root with the boot. You need something that says bohemian style that won't kill your feet. Our perfect festival footwear includes our tall fringe boots by Liberty Black, our short side zip boot python styles from Old Gringo and our new tall Mayra style also from Old Gringo. Or if you're looking for more classic western wear, we have the all-time favorite Old Gringo Bonnie boot, the Liberty Black Vintage Canela, and the Old Gringo Red Nevada for a classic cowgirl boot silhouette.

No pockets? No problem! Throw your essentials in a McFadin fringe bag that is both functional and fashion forward.

Our favorites:

McFadin Fringe  -  McFadin Navajo Blanket Totes  -  McFadin Sundance Fringe

Finally, don't forget to protect that pretty face from the sun! Top it all off with a classic Stetson western hat.

Our favorites:

Is it spring yet? We are ready to wave goodbye to winter and embrace the summer sun again. We’re dusting off our Stetsons and sliding on those daisy dukes. But what’s the best thing to finish off any spring look? Why, cowboy boots of course!

Old Gringo Flor Loca Red, Klak, and Red Nevada

Forget pastels this spring and dive right into color with these looks by Old Gringo. Pair these striking beauties with jeans and a classic tee and let the cowboy boots do the talking.

Old Gringo Mayra Bug, Mini Belinda, and Biker Boots

Spring wouldn’t be spring without florals, but that doesn’t mean you can’t show some attitude. Pair those feminine frills with a boot with edge – studs never looked so sweet.

Old Gringo Milano Baby Brass, Milano Calf Uxmel Milano Black, and Chocolate Hawk

We didn’t forget you gentlemen either. Keep cool and classy in one of our ankle zip boots. Leave the sneakers at home and throw these on with those beat up Levi’s we know you love.

Old Gringo Hanna Harness Black, Rios Kango Lux Ostrich, and Old Gringo Nevada Black

If the traditional tall boot is more your style, these western boots will look great dressed up for a hot date, or dressed down for some beers with the guys.

Whatever your look, pull those bad boys on and enjoy being the coolest one under the sun. We know we will.

As we transition out of Indian Summer, let's turn down Mungo Jerry's 'In the Summertime' and finally pack away our flip-flops, cut-off denim shorts and straw hats for the season. As the days become shorter and the evenings grow cooler, grab your warmest Pendleton blanket, turn up Ellington and Coltrane's 'In a Sentimental Mood,' and think about how to create your own unique style. If you're not sure where to begin, here are some of our favorite pieces from a few timeless brands: Old Gringo, Liberty Black, Stetson and Silver King.

If you are in search of the perfect fringed cowboy boots this fall, you are not alone.

Fringe is definitely still leading the list of must-haves this season. From fringed handbags to tall and short fringe boots, we’re seeing some beautiful western-inspired fashion items for fall.

A little boho chic, a little southwestern styling, fringe boots are a great way to complete a variety of looks, and compliment many current fashion trends.

Here are a few of our favorite ways to wear fringe boots, whether you’re at home on the open range or stepping out on the city sidewalks.

Southwestern Style

The Southwestern look is definitely in right now, especially with Southwestern or Native American-inspired, turquoise and silver jewelry and accessories. Fringe boots or multiple layers of Western-style fringe finish off this look beautifully. Paired with a blouse, a denim skirt, and a statement turquoise and silver necklace, or with skinny jeans and a belted light denim shirt, knee-high fringed boots are the perfect match.

So versatile, fringed boots add interest to any denim outfit, and the natural comfort of these soft leather boots makes them the perfect go-to for a casual outfit.  Try adding an on-trend fringed handbag, or a stylized cowgirl hat.

Boho Chic

Fringe boots go hand-in-hand with today’s trendy fun and floral-print bohemian dresses and skirts. This playful and comfortable style virtually cries out to add a little leather fringe. Pull on a knee-high pair with a short bohemian dress and leggings, or pair ankle-high fringe boots with longer flowing skirts.

Contemporary Casual

As those waning warmer days of summer fade to a bit more chill in the air, you can never go wrong with the ever-popular way to wear fringe boots -- paired with skinny jeans and a cozy long sweater.  Worn with jeans, skirts or dresses, fringed boots complement a variety of looks this season.
