Hot Summertime Fashion in NYC

Well, if you thought seven year old boys in Arizona were the only ones among us with enough style and guts to wear shorts with their cowboy boots—the girls of New York City have proved ya wrong!

New York Times fashion reporter Ruth La Ferla reports a nationwide boom in cowboy boots sales and tracks it back to the style, comfort and confidence you can find ...even in a vintage pair.

La Ferla's article (w/ log-in) includes a 6-photo slideshow of New York City streeet fashion. These gals look cool, even in 100 degree heat and that's not a dry heat mind you.
