Its fall, Ya’ll!

The temperatures are finally cooling down in most parts of the country.  As we start decorating our homes and porches with pumpkins and scarecrows, we can start pulling out our fall clothes and accessories.  If you are ready to add a few new pieces, let’s talk about what is new this season at Cowgirl Shine.

Colors will be a little deeper this fall.  The orange and fushia that were so hot this spring and summer will turn into deeper to mimic fall leaves.  Two great new colors to try are green and purple.  The greens will show up from bright chartreuse to shades of green foliage.  Look for a grayed down purple and a deep cooling blue-green to even things out in your western wear.

These great deeper tones will pair well with mixed metal jewelry.  Check out the Native American inspired beaded bangles and earrings.  Turquoise will always be popular for cowgirls. 

We are loving lace.  You can find lace in peasant tops, dresses and long sleeve tops to layer under almost anything.  Look for lace trim on jeans and jackets, when the weather gets a little cooler.  Try one of our new wide style belts to wear over your new lace addition.

Animal prints continue to cover everything from belts to purses.  Look for warm animal prints and even new tiger prints to appear this fall.  Of course, country girls still love their camouflage.

Purses are always an easy way to change up your look or add a new color.  Cowgirls are still loving the across the body bags.  We have even more of fall’s great colors arriving daily. Check out the new fringe rhinestone buckle purses in pink, green, black, taupe & purple with their matching wallets.

Cowgirl Sunglasses

Seen decorating wrists everywhere from Taylor Swift and Carrie Underwood, to the runways of Paris; Bangles are one of the hottest trends this summer with top designers such as Yves Saint Laurent and Balmain. They range from the subtlest metal cuffs to some of spring’s most attention-grabbing jewels.  We have assembled our new collection of Bangles and offer a wide range of colors and styles. Wear them out for a night on the town or add them to a pair of jeans to dress up a casual look. 

 

Tiger Print Fashion

We know leopard and zebra have always been fashion favorites but did you know tiger print is increasing in popularity. New York Fashion Week has suddenly provided a fresh alternative: tiger print… But is tiger print really wearable? As with any bold print, it’s important to wear tiger pieces in a way that won’t overwhelm you. Tiger print works well on accent pieces like purses, shoes, jewelry, or sunglasses. We are adding new tiger print western fashions as we find them. Keep checking our online store for the latest trends.

Ready for Spring? We are!!

It is hard to believe that it is almost St. Patrick’s Day.  Cowgirl Shine is so excited about shopping for Spring!  We have new shipments arriving daily -  Dang Chicks, Red Chapter, ATX Mafia, Montana West Flip Flops, just to name a few.  Are these new names to you?  Well, let us share our new favorites with you:

What is a Dang Chick?  A dang chick is a woman of confidence, grace, and beauty that lives life out loud. She is not afraid to relax into her gifts which in turn, allows the people around her to relax into theirs. She gives a lot, and she takes a lot, but she always knows exactly who she is.

Dang Chicks is a woman-owned company created to inspire every woman to be more than she is today…to become the person we were created to be (and look hot doing it!). Our motto is “Go big or go home!” We invite you to join us in this crazy journey known as life, and have more fun along the way.

“Handcrafted with Love and Rock n Roll™”

 “Isn’t it about time that western inspired casual clothing actually came from the west?” Become part of the ATX Mafia -

Part apparel company, part movement– all fun!  The ATX Mafia girls, Jill, Lexi, Sara and Brooke along with Steve Dean, an original founder who is no longer with the company, would launch an authentic and original apparel company where all designs would come from Austin, Texas–The Best Place on Earth.™ Sure, creating a brand inspired by the two words “Austin Casual” and taking it global sounded like a big, hairy, audacious goal—but that’s EXACTLY what made the idea so exciting and living in a city like Austin, a.k.a. “ATX™” was like a Mafia where “Once you’re in, you’re in.

The ATX Mafia girls made a pact to only design apparel that reflect the personality of the person wearing them and will NEVER tell anyone what to do. Our apparel will always be designed with a Southern Soul in mind–honest, good-hearted and sincere.  The ATX Mafia™ brand will only be built with an Austin state-of-mind: casual and cool, creative and unique, fun-loving and real.

Check out these new lines, among others, in our cowgirl bling boutique at www.cowgirlshine.com.  We are so excited to share Spring 2012 with you!!
