Dress c/o Conversation Pieces | Button Down: Target | Boots: Country Outfitter won on Audrey Allure | “S” Necklace c/o Maya Brenner (use code “SANDY25″ for 25% off your order) | Quartz Necklace: Deuce | Bracelets: Threads, Chloe Vs. Tank, Isshou No Yakusoku | Bag: Urban Outfitters

You guys.  I can now say that I am the proud owner of a pair of cowgirl boots.  Real, true, country western, cowgirl boots!  I have to say, I had to wear them around to break them in for awhile, but now they fit like a glove and I love them so much.  The design is so intricate and beautiful and they can really go with a lot of things.  For this outfit, I decided to pair them with a feminine pink dress and a tied denim button down over it (I am obsessed with tying my button down shirts now, no idea why).  And you may have noticed that I’ve ventured on to necklace layering.  It’s my new favorite style challenge for myself.

P.S. The original winner of the  eNVe Designs giveaway didn’t contact me so I am picking a new one.  Congrats to Chrissy Nicole Jordan of Parlo & LOGI, send me an email at sandyalamode(at)gmail(dot)com to claim your credit!

P.S.S. The winner of the Amykathryn Handbag giveaway is Shea L. of Bon Chic Bon Gastronimique!  Congrats girl!  Send me an email with your bag choice and mailing address!

Do you own a pair of cowgirl boots?  What kind?

    Soo cute! I love the western look. I don’t own a pair of cowboy boots but I NEED to find some cute ones! I just never get around to buying them. Humph.

    So cute! I love your little “S” necklace. And congrats on your new cowboy boots – I have a pair of my own and I’ve been wearing them with everything for over a year. They really are so versatile!

    Love this outfit. I’ve always wanted a pair of cowgirl boots but I’m afraid I’ll look like a wanna be. You pair the boots so well with the pieces.

    Adorable outfit, and I love the boots! How lucky to win them!! I own one pair – Steve Madden suede boots that I scored at a thrift store for $6.00! I like them a lot but they are a “smidge” too tight, so not the best for long days.

    Love how you knotted chambray over a pretty dress! I’m itching to try this now! Also, I love that necklace!
