Besides being the home of country music, Nashville is also home to an eclectic fashion scene - think Western edge colliding with feminine fits for a cool girl vibe to be envied. The country influence comes through in the form of fringe detailing, flared sleeves, and cowboy-esque boots, which when paired with your feminine staples (think flirty off-the-shoulder tops and lacy camis) gives off such a trendy, edgy feel.
It's a style that I love so much that I've incorporated it into my daily wear, coining the term 'Nashville chic' for any outfit put together that has a semblance of this Country-Western feel - think outfits inspired by guitar-clad it-girls 'Diamond Dixie', and country music trio 'Temecula Road'. These artists emit such a coveted, edgy vibe through their Southern-belle-meets-rugged-rocker outfits, that it has incited my love for this type of styling.
Distressed denim is an essential element of Nashville fashion. I've paired this ripped denim skirt with a flowy off-the-shoulder top and nude ankle boots for a flirty-feminine meets country-edge look.

Today, I've put together 6 outfits, inspired by my love of the Nashville fashion scene. Let me know which look is your fave in the comments!
1. Modern-day Western
A Nashville fashion staple are nude ankle boots. They are super versatile and look great paired with light wash denim and neutral tones. The off-the-shoulder top is also a wardrobe must-have, and looks super on-trend when tied at the front. Finish this outfit off with a nude wide-brimmed fedora for a true modern-day-Western look.

2. Cute to boot
Faded black jeans (a Nashville must-have) styled with a black lace cami screams edgy-rocker-chic. Pair with a statement snake-print boot and black wide-brimmed fedora to complete the look.
Top: Abercrombie & Fitch
Jeans: American Eagle
Boots: Aldo
3. Country boho
Pair your fave light-wash denim shorts with a lace cami and nude cardi (bonus points if you opt for one with fringe detailing) for an effortless, Western-inspired look. The vibe is not complete, however, without a pair of heeled ankle boots. A pointed toe has that cowboy influence and really elevates the outfit. Don't forget your fedora, gold-rimmed sunglasses, and statement earrings!

6. Polished edge
You can't go wrong with neutrals. That's something I love about Nashville fashion - there are a lot of soft tones that are really easy to style and wear. Pair a cream ruched bodycon dress with a cropped denim jacket (I especially love this one because of the raw hem) and nude ankle boots, for an edgy, polished look.
