There's a reason they write so many country songs about summer! From classics like Jimmy Buffett's "Margaritaville" to newer hits like "Sunrise, Sunburn, Sunset" by Luke Bryan—they're the perfect soundtrack to all your summertime activities. Whether you're at the lake, hosting a backyard cookout, spending your days on the beach, or just cruising with the windows down, there's nothing quite like the feeling of sunshine on your skin and those feel-good tunes filtering through the air.
That feeling is only amplified by hearing those best country songs live, of course! Luckily, the warmer seasons are chock full of shows to attend. We can picture it already: line dancing the night away with a summer cocktail in hand while you sing along to your favorite country artists.
But before you head out to the upcoming concert on your calendar, you'll need a style worthy of center stage. If you're wondering what to wear to a country concert, you've come to the right place. We've wrangled up five country concert outfits that you can easily recreate for yourself.
While you don't have to break out the chaps and spurs, you can still channel that inner cowgirl with Western-chic styles featuring fabrics like denim and prints like gingham. Go all out with pretty dresses and statement cowboy boots or opt for a laid-back look like Ree's go-to best jeans and a blousy top. You can even add a little country flair with accessory options like bandanas, dangly earrings, and naturally, a cowboy hat! So, browse here for all the best inspo. No matter the ensemble you pick, it's sure to be a crowd pleaser!
Dress and Statement Boots
Still not over Alex Drummond's outfit for the Taylor Swift concert? Neither are we! Just look at those rhinestone boots. 😍 For the next show on your lineup, take a hint from her and add a little sparkle to your two-step. Fortunately, you can grab the exact pair she wore from Betsey Johnson. You might also consider other statement shoe options like cowboy boots with bright colors or even embroidered florals. They'd all look so great paired with a summer dress! As for Alex's pretty purple dress, it's from Revolve, but any dress style will do. Think: midi dresses, maxi dresses, and smocked dresses. We think Dolly Parton and Shania Twain would definitely approve!
Floral Blouse and Chelsea Boots
Ree's tried-and-true look is perfect for many things—including country concerts! When the sun goes down (cue Kenny Chesney), the summertime breeze might be a little chilly. If that's the case, jeans and a lightweight top will comfortably get you through the event. You can grab any airy blouse from your closet or purchase a style similar to Ree's. The embroidered floral pattern is so reminiscent of the warmer seasons. And for those of you looking for a cute alternative to classic cowboy boots, we love the idea of pairing your top and pants with Chelsea boots or ankle boots. They still give a subtle nod to Western wear while staying oh-so-trendy. We also can't go without mentioning The Pioneer Woman's favorite accessory: statement earrings! Her beautifully beaded pair ties the ensemble together so perfectly.
Flare Pants and Bandana
There's no better way to elevate your concert ensemble than by adding a little flair—or in this case, some flare. When it comes to country fashion, denim is a timeless choice, but that doesn't mean it has to be boring. This look from Jessica Camerata on her blog An Indigo Day proves it! Instead of a typical jean wash and style, she took things up a notch with a white wash and wide-leg flared cut. The coloration is perfect for the warmer days ahead and will look exceptionally chic with a variety of tops. Pull on a summery tank like the one seen here or tuck in a cute graphic tee. You could even throw a jean jacket on top. Then to complete your cowgirl-esque attire, tie a bandana around your neck for a simple yet eye-catching touch. You're sure to bring in plenty of compliments with this one.
Denim Dress, Cowboy Hat, and Cowboy Boots
Who says denim can't be dressy? Not us! That's probably why we can't get enough of this outfit idea from Jaime Shrayber on her blog The Real Fashionista. She dresses up the staple fabric by well, wearing it as a dress. Not only does it look extra snazzy, but it's also still super on-brand for a country concert. The long-sleeves make for a comfortable transition from day to night, too. You can find so many darling denim dresses to add to your seasonal wardrobe, but if you ask us, the button-down shirt style seen here just really builds on the theme—especially when paired with those cowboy boots! The darker leather is a striking addition to the ensemble. Plus, she leans into the authentic look of the Wild Wild West even further by topping it off with a matching cowboy hat. Yeehaw!
Gingham Blouse, Denim Shorts, and Boots
If this adorable attire seen on Alex doesn't make you want to kick up your boots, we don't know what will! The perfect mix of both rustic and Americana, it's downright meant for country concerts featuring patriotic songs like "Chicken Fried" by Zac Brown Band and "Only in America" by Brooks & Dunn. Of course, it'll look just as great at any other show as well. The blue-and-white gingham print of her breezy blouse is a quintessential summer pattern that's only made better by white jean shorts. Bonus tip: Substitute the gingham top for one in a plaid pattern. It's also a country classic! And can we take a moment for yet another pair of statement boots? Really, that's all you need to giddy up and go!
