The wild wild west
You’ll have no doubt noticed that fashion has been having something of a western revival recently, with fringing, denim and cowboy boots galore spotted everywhere from festivals to coffee shops. But you don’t need to head to the wild west to pick up your cowboy gear – you can find it right here in the north-east. Bluebird Boutique is nestled in Stanhope, Durham (although you can order online too) and it’s the best place to getting your classic western-inspired Americana outfits this side of the Atlantic. From fringe jackets and graphic tees to silver jewellery and woven bags, Bluebird Boutique stocks everything you could need to bring a touch of “cowboycore” to your wardrobe. Big name brands like Ariat, Montana Silversmiths and American Darling are housed in owner Rebecca’s store, and she’s a one-woman powerhouse that does everything from sourcing pieces to packing orders and answering emails.
