Pair it with tulle.

Sunday is my daughters third birthday, and we’re celebrating at a farm with pony rides, a choo choo, a petting zoo and all sorts of other things little kids love. It’s going to be a full-on cowboy-slash-farm themed event. Now that I have the cake, the party favors and the rest of the western-themed accoutrements, one important decision must be made: what am *I* going to wear?

I’m all about the cowboy theme, but I don’t want to evoke Britney and Justin circa 2001. So I searched around the web and found plenty of inspiration that hopefully will help me steer clear of that. Just in case you one day face the same predicament, I thought I would share. Obviously, denim is front and center in all of these outfits!
