In recent years, country music has seen a steady rise in popularity. The summer of 2023, however, marked its biggest success when country artists such as Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs and Kacey Musgraves dominated the streaming services. The country wave was so strong, even Beyoncé embraced the trend with her release of Cowboy Carter, for which she accepted The Innovator Award at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards while sporting a western-inspired look, fringe and all.
Southern Bride has curated a collection of fabulous western items to add a pop of country to your everyday style.
