Does the fact that Stampede is just around the corner have you wondering what to wear to the grounds this year? During those ten days, I think we all have a celebration or two on our calendars, but maybe buckles and Wranglers aren’t really your style. Kari Owen from Adorn Boutique is full of ideas for Stampede outfits with just the right amount of cowgirl. Kari says…

I think that over the past few years “Stampede Style” has become much more than just denim and a pair of cowboy boots. There was so much variety in the recent Stampede street style photos we sifted through in search of inspiration. We love the idea of a masculine, dark denim button-up shirt, paired with a lady-length skirt and a statement necklace, or a pair of high-waisted denim shorts with a printed shirt knotted at the waist. Even a little slip dress with a denim jacket and a pair of ankle boots can be stampede-appropriate, while still feeling pretty. We are a very feminine boutique, so it was fun to add a “dressed-up” twist to the classic idea of what is stampede fashion.

Kari assembled these outfits for a Stampede party, featured in the July issue of Avenue Magazine.
