HORSE’N AROUND: BOLOS

If you’re not already embracing the beauty of bolos, it’s high time you start. And here’s why.

You can express yourself.

One of the really fun things about a bolo is that artisans tend to get a little creative and personalized with the slides. Maybe it’s a mosaic inlay horse, maybe it’s a vintage coin, maybe it’s a sterling silver longhorn or – our current obsession – a fully functioning spur with spinning rowels and a big ol’ hunk of turquoise. You do you.

It doesn’t have to be big to be bold.

Bolos are an unexpected (and underrated!) accessory. They make a statement whether they’re dainty or dramatic; the compliments are coming either way.

Wear it how you want.

Much like a scarf, there is inherent versatility with a bolo. Slide it high up to the neck for a traditional look. Rock it low and loose more like a necklace pendant. Heck, you can even fashion it as a hatband. It’s like three accessories in one.
