Get your boots ready! Cowboy Carter, Beyoncé’s highly anticipated country album, drops on Friday (March 29).
With album release week finally here, we’re ready to ride off into the sunset blasting the new LP as soon as it arrives on March 29, and if you’re not already stocked up on country western gear, we’ve lassoed up a list of must-haves — starting with Beyoncé -approved cowboy boots and cowboy hats.
Keep reading for a roundup of cowboy boots and hats that Beyoncé likes, bell bottoms that are perfect for line dancing and other western wear to celebrate the release of Cowboy Carter.
Cowboy Boots
Start the clock! Act II officially kicks off Friday, and because there’s less than a week left before Bey’s new album drops, you need to have a pair of cowboy boots ready.
What kind of boots does Beyoncé wear? She seems to be liking Paris Texas boots at the moment.
The “16 Carriages” singer donned white Paris Texas Paloma Western boots for the cover of her Cowboy Carter album, as noted by the Instagram account Style Beyoncé.
She also gifted a pair of metallic Paris Texas cowboy boots to actress Bianca Lawson for her birthday last week. The Paris Texas El Dorado Boot, one of the brand’s popular styles, is 50% off at SSENSE.
This knee-high, calfskin suede boots features tonal stitching with a blocked heel. The El Dorado boot is also available in leather.
Tecovas is another option that has a nice fan following. The Annie Boot is one of the brand’s bestsellers with 3,777 customer reviews and 4.89 stars.
The Annie Boot is available in 13 different colors including midnight black, bone, sequoia brown, caramel, cafe and limited-edition colors such as honey bone and burgundy python.

Best Cowboy Hats
“Texas Hold ‘Em” is the kind of song that makes you want to hit the dance floor — but don’t forget to grab your Stetson cowboy hat, like the ones Bey has been wearing to launch her new era.
If you’ve seen Beyoncé sporting a cowboy hat lately, chances are it’s a Stetson. The superstar has donned Stetson hats on more than one occasion, including at the 2024 Grammys.
Stetson cowboy hats are priced from as low as $65 to upward of $600 for the more expensive ones that you’ve seen celebrities wearing. They’re available at Stetson.com, and retailers such as Backcountry, Hat Country, Amazon and Huckberry.
If you’re looking for a cowboy hat under $30, the hat pictured below is a decent choice for the price point, according to customer reviews. The hat comes in a bunch of different colors, such as black, white, blue, red, brown and green.
Stetson hats are one of Bey’s favorites right now, but there are other cowboy hat brands to consider such as Seager and Kemo Sabe.
Fringe Jacket
Nothing screams country quite like fringe. It’s a cool design that turns heads, but fringe is also fun to wear (especially if you’re twirling around).
The fridge jacket from Amazon comes in brown, black and other colors (sizes S-XXL).
Save 50% off this faux leather fringe jacket at ASOS. You can also find fridge jackets, shirts, shorts and skirts on sale at Nasty Gal.
Flare Jeans
Flare jeans may have taken a back seat to more popular styles like straight leg, skinny jeans and wide leg jeans, but they never went out of style. The bell bottom is a timeless silhouette that has become synonymous with western wear.
If you don’t mind going a bit extreme with your bell bottom, check out the Just Float on Flare jeans from Free People. The jean is available in a range of colors, including black and multiple shades of blue.
Abercrombie & Fitch makes a high-rise flare jean that offers a more fitted design, without going to wide at the bottom.
Luckily, bell bottom jeans aren’t hard to find, which gives you a good amount of options to test out before settling one on particular style. Besides Abercrombie and Free People, some of the retailers and brand’s that we recommend for flare leg jeans include Maurices, Levi’s and Wrangler as well as Amazon, Walmart and Target .
