Keeping It Local

French Cowgirl is proud to be a huge supporter of local Oklahoma City artists. We are welcoming a new artist to our store, as well as celebrating those who have been with us for a while.  All of them bring a unique perspective and we love the beauty they bring to the French Cowgirl shopping experience.

Bring back the 70's

Whether you remember the 70's or not, get ready to have fun with them again.  

Sexy silhouettes, over the top accessories, disco motifs, all kinds of looks that can only make you feel gooooooooood!

WHITE HOT

 Listen up, y'all!  We give you permission to break the rules a bit.  If you are a girl who doesn't wear white between Labor Day and Easter, you are missing out.  Especially since Easter falls so late this Spring.  White is fresh, cool, clean and HOT!!!  We don't mean in temps. We are talking trends here. No matter the silhouette.

  And don't foget your accessories.  Bold statements can be made with this fresh color choice 

and it doesn't have to be "I do!".  

Wear it with confidence and a smile and you won't feel the least bit bridal. You'll feel chic and sleek.

Yay for Crochet and Macrame'

A trend for Spring/Summer 2011 is the revival of the 1970's.  It is most definitely seen in the color palette of earthy tones, taupes, browns, cremes, oranges, and whites.  Combine that color palette with old favorites of Crochet and Macrame' and you have a fresh look.

You may be wondering what the differences is exactly between Crochet and Macrame'. Macrame' is made from knotting fabric.  Think pot holders and wall hangings from the 1970's.  Crochet is made from looping of yarn with a single hooked needle.  They give a similar visual.

How can a French Cowgirl pull it off?  

Easily.

Come in our store for more inspiration.

Pieces are based on hippy, festival chic inspiration, but overall the aesthetic is still luxurious with a modern sense of refinement. -Fashionising.com

The Place for Lace

French Cowgirl is staying on top of the trends for Spring/Summer 2011, so you can look and feel current, fun and fantastic.  One of our favorite styles is LACE.  It's pretty, and fresh.  And it's for all ages.   Romantic, but not overly girly.  Sensual, but not suggestive.  Sophisticated, but not stuffy.

White and nudes are great choices.  We suggest pairing them with a cropped cardigan, funky ring and/or antique necklace, and wedges.  You'll be all set for Spring Break.  Wear it out for lunch with girlfriends, drinks at your favorite cafe, and your spring break get-away.  

Don't shy away from color and patterns.  Lace doesn't mean you have to be without personality.

Have fun with it!!!
