These days, cowboy boots are as useful for making a fashion statement as they are for mucking about a ranch.
The proof is in Emily Ratajkowski's pudding. The model has been spotted on various occasions strutting New York City's sidewalks in the Western-themed footwear (her trusted pair is a now out-of-stock iteration from Zara, though a similar pair is linked below).

For instance, she expertly meshed together the aesthetics of the downtown It girl with the country cowgirl in November, when she styled boots with a boxy blazer and light-wash jeans. And just last month, Ratajkowski wore the footwear with another blazer—that time, a chic two-toned version—and leather pants.
Her latest cowboy boots-centric outfit is taking on spring. While out for a walk with baby Sylvester earlier this week, the My Body author opted for an oversized Blanca knit sweater in a sunny two-toned yellow palette. Eschewing pants, she let the boots do all the talking for the bottom half of her look. She accessorized lightly with cat-eye sunglasses, gold By Alona earrings, and a black shoulder bag.

EmRata previously opened up about her relationship to fashion in a 2021 interview.
"I feel like fashion can be a wonderful celebration of yourself," she said. "Choosing what you want to wear on a given day is such an empowering, exciting feeling. I love playing dress-up and I think we should all remember that fashion shouldn't be taken too seriously. It should be fun!"

She also writes on social movements, connecting with activists leading the fight on workers' rights, climate justice, and more. Offline, she’s probably spending too much time on TikTok, rewatching Emma (the 2020 version, of course), or buying yet another corset.
