Don’t forget your man…
Valentine’s Day isn’t just for the ladies. How about a nice leather belt for the man in your life. Something he can wear daily.
I love this Ariat Men’s Barrel Full Grain Leather Belt in Redwood. Under $40, versatile, stylish and perfect.
And for the little man in your life, how about this Cowboy Up Boy’s Short Sleeve Tee? So stinkin cute!
Wear It: A-OK
Neal McCoy has a new video out called A-OK and man o man is it infectious. It’s totally stuck in my head. This song is off his new album that is set for release on March 6 and was co-produced by Blake Shelton, Miranda Lambert and Brent Rowan.
A-OK was filmed in McCoy’s hometown of Longview, TX and he’s got a really down home look going on. Let’s check the video out first:
I love his look, it’s very country and casual, yet very hip. I’m sure his jeans are probably his own 20 year old pair that you could only get that color from a million washings in the washer/dryer, but here’s goes with my Langston’s style selection:
Pin It
Men’s Dickies Solid Short Sleeve Wicking Pocket Tee Shirt-Black
Lucky Brand Men’s Indio Western Stripe Snap Shirt – Grey (Closeout)
Ariat Men’s M4 Relaxed Boot Cut Jeans – Baron (Closeout)
Justin – Men’s Full Quill Ostrich Cowboy Boots with Tekno Crepe™ Sole – Black
I’m actually a big fan of this outfit. And for 53, Neal McCoy can rock that entire outfit. I saw him in concert one time at the Houston Rodeo and he puts on a very good show…go check him out if he’s near you. Oh and wear THIS outfit!

New Music Releases
A great new one is coming out today by Mr Dierks Bentley. It’s called Home. And it’s SEXAYYYY! There’s just something about Dierks Bentley…he’s got a great voice and can SANG a song if you know what I mean. This album would be a GREAT road trip listen…crank it up, roll the windows down and take a little drive.
A few collaborations on the album to take note of…Little Big Town’s Karen Fairchild duets with Dierks on “When You Gonna Come Around.” And Dierks’ three-year old daughter Evie sings the final chorus of “Thinking Of You”.
Here are some definite must listens: Am I The Only One, Home, Tip It On Back, Breathe In, The Woods, Thinking of You….hell just go get the album–its GOOD. I mean I had to really keep myself from listing every song on the whole album as “must listens”. Trust me!
Will you be downloading this one? I will for sure! Tell me what else y’all are listening to these days!!
The Voice is Back!
I don’t have a full recap…sorry. The Super Bowl wore me out! But I did have a few things catch my eye. First, miss Juliet on Team Cee Lo. Was this Ariat Studded Vest made to be rocked by her or what??
Chris, Jesse and Tony Lucca (I can’t just say Tony, his name seem to just fit better with first and last together, you know?) These guys will be fun to watch.I am pretty sure we can find some boot/jean/shirt combos to suit each of them.
Raelynn…..how did I miss her? Seriously…I must have missed a few minutes of the show??! Did you guys see her? The website says she is “Dolly Parton-loving, horse-riding, “Legally Blonde”-watching country pop artist” HOW DID I MISS HER? Based on the photos on the NBS site and her bio, I am going to guess these are right up her ally.
Did you guys check out the special we are running on these today? Click over to Horses and Heels to check it out.
Ok. So you know I’m going to watch this season….are you?
Horses and Heels
Our friend Raquel over at Horses and Heels picked one of our boots as her Boot of the Week. What do you think she picked? Click over to her site and check it out. There just might be a surprise over there too (hint….coupon code!!!).
Animal Influence
Need a date night look? How about this? I love how this tunic is flowy and easy to wear, yet still 100% sleek and fashionable. It would flatter anyone and everyone…from those with a body to flaunt, to those with a bit to hide, this is equally flattering. Pair it with skinny jeans, jeggings or leggings to off set the volume on top. And of course boots. The black and white of the top is echoed in these Corral boots. This outfit works for date night, girl’s night out, parties…it does it all.
Ariat Women’s SS Zebra Tunic – Black, Levi’s ® 524 ™ Women’s Skinny Jeans – Blue Moon, Corral Boots – Women’s Vintage Cowboy Boots w/ Bone Lizard Overlay
Miranda Lambert on Law & Order
Have y’all heard Miranda Lambert is gonna guest star on a Law & Order: Special Victims Unit? YES! Set your TiVos!! It’ll be airing February 8 and in the episode, an aspiring actress is found unconscious in Central Park with drugs in her system and evidence of sexual trauma. Miranda is cast as another actress who is in danger of being assaulted by the producer of a reality TV show. Harry Connick Jr. and Michael McKean also guest star in the episode.
Miranda tweeted about guest starring back on January 7th: Yall I’m so freaking excited to be on my favorite show ever !!!
I’m pretty pumped about seeing her acting debut and how exciting that she’s making her debut on her favorite show ever!! What do y’all think? Will you be watching? Are you a fan of Law & Order: SVU? I will definitely be checking it out because I’m a MIRANDA LAMBERT fan!!
Wear It: You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go
Have you heard Miley Cyrus did a remake of a Bob Dylan song? Yep, it’s called You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go. The song is featured on ‘Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan Honoring 50 Years of Amnesty International,’ a four-disc charity compilation album out Jan. 24. Check out her version of the old Dylan song:
Honestly I was surprised, I’m definitely used to her pop side, so to hear her sing something like this is AWESOME. She’s so versatile! This song is pretty low key and chill, just like her outfit. Here’s how I’d recreate that laid back look:
Lucky Women’s Holiday Henley Thermal Top – Black
Rock and Roll Cowgirl Women’s Low Rise Boot Cut Jeans with Hand Stitching
Ariat Women’s Amora Boots – Shattered Copper/Tan
I know she’s got a sleeveless shirt on, but it is still technically winter so… Her outfit is very basic and cool, so I went with your basic henley, Rock and Roll brand jeans (how could I not??) and some boots that you could wear with EVERYTHING.
What do y’all think of her outfit and the song?
