The Annual Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo starts in February 28 and runs for about 3 weeks. This show benefits the youth of Texas and has been running since 1932. Since Houston does not really have an amusement park or a big entertainment scene, the Rodeo becomes a huge destination for Houstonians (and other Texas who usually drive down here for the event) this time of the year for concerts, food, and exciting rides!
So this event is the inspiration for today’s post. You just can’t go to the Rodeo show without getting the look! It’s just a MUST have and I mean plaid shirt, boots (cowboy boots if you have it), and cowboy hat. Sadly, I don’t have cowboy hat but fortunately, I have some of Charming Charlie’s Rodeo-themed accessories to make my look complete! Glad that they carry such items.
For those of you who are not familiar with Charming Charlie, they are actually a huge chain of jewelries, clothing, and accessories store in Houston.
Shot this outfit in a 50 degree weather plus wind chill factor which means it’s probably around high 40s. Definitely freezing for me but the show must go on, haha!
On to my outfit…I’m not a big fan of plaid but my mom is! I grabbed her oldie but goodie Forever21 plaid shirt and her brown Bamboo boots (yes can you believe I don’t have brown boots?) and matched them with my Forever21 skinny jeans ($10.50 at Forever21, ha!)
If you’ve been following my blog since it started, you will notice that this is my first ever outfit post wearing jeans :).
Sunglasses from Forever21
If you still don’t believe there is a hill in Houston, here’s the proof. I was climbing up this hill! See?
I love this shot! My mom did a great job with the shoot even if we were both freezing!
Here are some of the items from Charming Charlie’s Rodeo collection…turquoise and brown necklace! What I adore about this necklace is that even if Rodeo is over, I can still use it and match with my other clothes.
Black purse with cross and I attached a key holder with stone.
Turquoise bracelet with cross.
These are available at Charming Charlie stores. To find one near you, go to www.charmingcharlie.com.
