The National Finals Rodeo, or NFR, hit Las Vegas, Nevada, for the much-anticipated finals – and the cowboys’ glamorous WAGS took over the city while showing off their designer outfits and Birkin bags.
The NFR is held annually the first full week of December at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and is aired live on The Cowboy Channel.
Cowboy Christmas, the official gift show of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, is held at the same time and features more than 500,000 square feet of merchandise, including custom jewelry, western wear, boots, and more.
The wives, girlfriends, and in some cases, sisters, of the professional bull riders aren’t all picking up their outfits at Cowboy Christmas – although they do choose pieces to accessorize with.
Many are obsessed with showing off their designer wares on Instagram, which are then showcased on The Bull Rider Wives account.
They buy up outfits far in advance, making sure to pick up custom pieces on Etsy and look for vintage items that no one else will have.
From black leather to blue jean Birkins, FEMAIL is rounding up the most glamorous women in Las Vegas for the rodeo finals.
Influencer Kaitlyn Davis, who has 249,000 Instagram followers, is famous for her high fashion looks (and collection of Hermes bags) much to the delight of her followers.
Shelby Mayfield, who grew up in a rodeo family, has also gone viral on social media for her stylish Vegas ensembles
The digital creator, based in Dallas, Texas, has been partnering with Kendra Scott to accessorize her outfits
Kaitlyn is married to Cooper Davis, the 2016 PBR World Champion, and is the owner of a hard to get blue jean Birkin and matching belt.
On TikTok, she has amassed more than 400,000 followers, who go wild for her chic outfits, even if they’re not fan of the rodeos – in fact, many have no idea what NFR means.
On her first night in Vegas, Kaitlyn showed off a vintage fringed blazer with an animal print, turquoise bolo tie, brown leather Revolve shorts, Wolford tights, black Louis Vuitton boots, and an Hermes bag.
Shelby Mayfield, who grew up in a rodeo family, has also gone wildly viral on social media for her stylish Vegas ensembles, which aren’t traditional western wear – although she incorporates cowboy boots and turquoise jewelry.
The digital creator, based in Dallas, Texas, has been partnering with Kendra Scott to accessorize her outfits, which include skintight leather leggings and Yellowstone-inspired outerwear.
Shelby, whose brother is 2020 world champion Shad Mayfield, even opted for an edgy black outfit, pairing a low-cut vest with furry capris, telling her Instagram followers, ‘the ones that get it, get it.’
Shelby shows off all of her outfits in GRWM videos, and said this is the first year she’s at the rode finals just for herself.
The western influencer, who has been coming to the NFR for eight years, said on TikTok its gotten ‘way too commercial’ and that she used to go to Forever 21 to pick out outfits.

Shelby shared a video in a high-waisted skirt, white top, and oversized blazer, and wrote, ‘When everyone hates your outfit but at least it doesn’t look like a Halloween costume,’ which some followers thought could be throwing shade at her fellow attendees.
The influencer, who calls herself ‘the real life Hannah Montana,’ also shared a video in a zebra outfit and captioned the TikTok, ‘the people that say this isn’t western literally can’t even swing a rope.’
After posting all her cowboycore OOTDS, the stylist thanked critics for her social media engagement spike and said, ‘If you don’t like the way I dress, I have so much confidence in myself, I literally don’t care.’
‘To everyone who did hate on me… if I was an outside party, I’d hate me bad,’ Shelby continued, cementing her place as rodeo royalty.
