Red [Boots], White, and Blue
You guys, happy day after the Fourth of July! I know it’s not America’s birthday anymore, but hey that’s okay… doesn’t mean I can’t show you what I wore on America’s birthday.
We had just a couple friends come over for some pulled pork and hot dogs and some hanging out in the backyard. So it was low-key, but HOT. Oh so hot out, so at first I had this skirt number planned and then I quickly realized that shorts, a tank, and my new red boots were going to be just the trick.
I don’t usually love wearing just a tank top and shorts… but honestly, it was so hot out I didn’t really care all that much. BUT, I ended up actually kinda liking this outfit. Call me pleasantly surprised.
So, I will go ahead and get his out there: you’re gonna see a lot of these boots on the blog. You know how I love my cowboy boots. I mean, they’re kind of my thing. Right? Or something.
Well, the fabulous folks at Boot Barn sent me these amazing Shyanne boots and I could not love them more. Oh man. I love them. I love them. I love them. Did I mention I love them?
This isn’t my official “review” post cause they also sent a pair for the husband (which you know he was so pumped about) and I’m still working on breaking them in. BUT, I love them already. GAH.
Oh, and I got to REALLY work on breaking them in when one of our dogs, *cough* Tater *cough*, decided to do a little escape act after a cat and then I had to go sprinting around our neighborhood after her, whilst wearing these boots. Needless to say they held up EXTREMELY well considering I was BOLTING after her. Ugh. That dog. Gotta love ’em.
HAHAH. Okay. SO, I’m posting the following four pictures in collage-form because I have no shame and I think they’re hilarious. I really wanted to try and do a “jumping picture.” I have no idea why, so don’t ask. However, I was not able to time it correctly with the self-timer and had a heck of a time trying to get a good jumping picture.
I have no idea what’s wrong with me LOL. So, I’m just posting these for your amusement.
Wow. Right? What’s that last one? I mean is that really an attempt at a jump? I have no idea. Anyway.
Back to the outfit and the boots.
I mean really, how gorgeous are these boots? ILOVETHEMSOMUCH. I can’t wait to really get ’em good and broken in and tell you all about them.
Oh and I MIGHT be doing a little giveaway with them, too… who knows? 😉

Ummmm….I’M IN LOVE WITH YOUR BOOTS!!!!! I feel it is so shameful that I, a dancer sponsored by a huge country-western bar, does NOT own a good pair of boots!!! All I have is a crappy pair I bought in college at like Burlington Coat Factory or some shiz. So bummy. I’ve been putting a bit of money aside every now and again to buy some boots…so jealous of yours!!! LOVE!
thanks, Jamie!!! girl… you need a good pair of boots. for reals. you NEED some. 🙂 🙂 keep an eye out for the giveaway this month 🙂 xoxo
Those boots are beyond fabulous! I just love the color!
