Rodeo Wives and Girlfriends set the style fashions at the NFR

Bling, rhinestones, diamonds, sequins and painted nails define the fashion styles of the ninth go-round wives and girlfriends at the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. I caught up with three beautiful women on the concourse who happen to be cheering on their very own contestant. Tiffany McGhan was wearing a necklace pendant that resembles Tuf Cooper’s back number. She even had her finger nails painted with her boyfriend’s signature WNFR back number 3.
Chandler Bownd’s girlfriend, Megan Caruso also painted a fingernail to resemble her boyfriend’s back number, 84. The famous back numbers are noticeable in a crowd of cowboys and WNFR jackets. The identifying mark of spotting a contestant’s fans through the Las Vegas crowds is the emergence of back numbers on nails, signs, tags, key rings and lapel pins. Megan added a back number key ring to her purchase along with wearing a necklace with Bownds name engraved on it.
Two-time World Champion Bareback Rider Kaycee Feild’s wife Stephanie wore her husband’s world championship buckle with her sequin top, gold leggings and heels. The three women are fashion setters for the world of rodeo. Each have a unique style accompanied by a big smile and genuine love for their cowboy.
