Activewear Fusion: Embracing Coastal Cowgirl Style for Spring and Summer

Fashion trends are constantly evolving, and the latest buzz is all about the emergence or perhaps resurgence of the Coastal Cowgirl style. One may say Taylor Swift's Era Tour can be partially attributed to this trending look, others may claim Stevie Nicks gets all the credit, but I digress. This vibrant and laid-back trend combines elements of coastal living and classic cowgirl aesthetics, creating a unique fusion that exudes effortless charm. Since Coastal Cowgirl style leans towards fun & relaxed, incorporating activewear into this trend just makes sense. In this article, we'll explore how to seamlessly integrate activewear pieces into the Coastal Cowgirl style, allowing you to embrace this trend while staying comfy and active during the spring and summer months.

  1. Embracing Functional Fabrics: Activewear is designed to provide comfort and functionality, making it an ideal choice for a Coastal Cowgirl fit. Look for lightweight, breathable fabrics such as moisture-wicking materials, spandex blends, and quick-drying fabrics. These fabrics will keep you cool and comfortable, whether you're going from barre to brunch, exploring the beach or riding horses.

  2. Nailing the Bottoms: When it comes to activewear bottoms, opt for versatile pieces that effortlessly blend into the Coastal Cowgirl aesthetic. High-waisted leggings in soft pastels, neutral tones, or floral prints can be paired with flowy tops or crop tops. Consider selecting leggings with subtle lace or mesh details for added feminine flair. 

  3. Top It Off: Tops play a crucial role in completing the Coastal Cowgirl look. Opt for lightweight and breathable tank tops or crop tops that allow you to move freely. Look for tops in natural fibers like cotton or linen, which provide comfort and breathability, such as our Captain Crop Top. Layering with a denim or chambray shirt tied at the waist adds an extra element of that southern, rodeo style.

  4. Add Western-Inspired Accessories: To fully embrace the Coastal Cowgirl style, accessorize your activewear ensemble with Western-inspired elements. Incorporate wide-brimmed straw hats, leather belts with decorative buckles, and bandanas tied around your neck or as a headband. Accessorize with rustic jewelry pieces like turquoise accents, silver bangles, or feather earrings to add a bohemian flair to your look. A word of caution here; be mindful not to overload your look with too many of these accessories and choose a couple that complement your overall cowgirl charm.

  5. Footwear with Flair: Complete your Coastal Cowgirl activewear ensemble with the perfect footwear. Opt for comfortable yet stylish options such as leather sandals, ankle boots, or low-profile sneakers in neutral tones or earthy shades. If you're planning outdoor adventures, consider investing in a pair of rugged cowgirl boots that pair well with both activewear and casual dresses.

  6. Versatile Outerwear: While the spring and summer months are usually warm, it's always wise to have a lightweight outerwear option on hand for cooler evenings or unexpected weather changes. Layer your activewear outfit with a denim or suede jacket, a lightweight cardigan, or a fringed scarf for a touch of Western-inspired style.

The Coastal Cowgirl style embraces the essence of coastal living and cowgirl charm, offering a laid-back yet modern aesthetic. By incorporating activewear into this trend, you can achieve a comfortable and versatile look that effortlessly transitions from barre to beach to date night. Remember to choose functional fabrics, experiment with prints and textures, and accessorize with Western-inspired elements (*paid link) to fully embody the Coastal Cowgirl style.  Embrace the fusion of fashion and function and enjoy the best of both worlds this spring and summer. And most of all, just have fun with it.
