Q: How do you decide on your outfits? Meaning
does time of day, type of rodeo indoor/outdoor
effect your style and why and how?
"My favorite
event to dress up
for is the NFR.
It’s one of the only
times I actually
try and plan my
outfits!"
A: I decide on my outfits by the weather and
where the rodeo is! There are some rodeos that
everyone just dresses up for! Most of the spring
rodeos are in big coliseums and parking is on
pavement so it’s easier to dress in heels and go
all out!!! Then there are the ones that the parking
lot and stands are in dirt so I wear my boots.
FASHION
Q&A
Q: Your top five brands/
designers you love.
A: My top brand is definitely Roper (which
includes Stetson and Tin Haul) they have
become so stylish with their clothing and
have the best booties and boots. I also
wear a lot Express, H&M and Forever 21.
I’m pretty much a bargain shopper so I hit
up TJ Maxx a lot!

Q: Favorite rodeo
run, stretch of
rodeos?
A: I love the fall rodeos
up in the northwest. The
stands are always packed
and the crowds are into
the rodeos. Even though
it’s closer to the end of the
rodeo season it is a more
relaxed environment
Q: What is your go to
Q: Favorite event
to dress up for
each year? piece of jewelry that
you wear at least
50% of the time?
A: My favorite event to
dress up for is the NFR.
It’s one of the only times
I actually try and plan my
outfits! Anything goes
out there so it is fun to get
creative! My mom comes
over and we actually go
through my clothes to try
and make a list of what
shirts, bottoms, jewelry, and
shoes make up the outfit.
We make it a fun time!! A: I have two go to pieces of
jewelry that I wear. One is a
custom leather cuff with our
brand on it made by Rashel
Garside. The other is a hand
engraved sterling silver
ring made by Janneman of
Pienaar Saddles. Both of
these pieces are unique and
I love them!
