And you know that there is a love hate relationship with the tourists that descend upon our fare city each summer. We love the tourist revenue it creates but we hate the swarms of people swathed in rhinestones and denim with big hair and cowboy hats. Its the image of Nashville that every outsider has in their head. But it couldn't be further from the truth. We can be pretty fashionable when we want to be. But the outfit du jour (or jours) of the CMA fest was the DREADED blue jean shorts and cowboy boot combination.
I'll admit that some people will consider this look stylish and fashionable. I mean just take a look at celebrities like Mily Cyrus and Rachel Bilson. They seem to love this look. But honestly it makes no sense. Why in the heat of summer would you want your feet and calves sweating ( I don't care how expensive the leather is, you will sweat)? And this is seen everywhere during CMA fest along with its kissing cousin the Sundress and cowboy boots.
Word of advice: If you are coming to Nashville for CMA fest, please leave the above mentioned outfit at home. If you must wear super short denim shorts opt for a pair of cute oxfords or sandals and stay away from the Cowboy boots. Native Nashvillians and your dry feet will thank you.
