When I think of The Rustic Ranch in Elgin, Oklahoma, I think of the word, "unique."  I think that best describes what you'll find in the store located at 8209 US Hwy 277, Suite 4 in Elgin.

And, believe me, that is by design. Owner Emily Franks prides herself in hosting items that you won't find in other shops because she doesn't go to market to stock her store.  She finds other small businesses in Texas and Oklahoma and tries to keep business local! Shopping locally also helps keep costs down and makes Rustic Ranch so affordable. That remains one of the goals for Rustic Ranch - great quality and affordability!

I will admit, I got distracted pretty easily when I visited Rustic Ranch. I took just a few pictures, so I borrowed some from the Rustic Ranch Facebook page so you'd get a really good feel of what shopping there is like.

I love the jewelry. It's fashion jewelry, but you get the authentic western look without killing your fashion budget!  And just because it's fashion jewelry, doesn't mean it's not high quality. I got a couple of necklaces when I was there and they are great!

Rustic Ranch carries sizes extra small to 3x, when she can get them, and caters to anyone from teens to Nanas, like me. In fact, when I was there, a teenager was trying on some of the cutest hot pink bell bottoms! Plus Rustic Ranch offers Facebook shopping. If you see something that you like, message Rustic Ranch and they will get it for you and ship it!

25 hilarious Oklahoma personalized tags DENIED by the DMV

A great way to personalize your vehicle is with a custom license plate. There are some pretty creative and funny tags running around the Sooner State. Some are easy to get, others will have you scratching your head trying to figure it out what it says. Personalized plates are very popular and we're seeing more of them on the road every day. However, there are some rules and restrictions when it comes to what you can and can't put on your plate. If it's considered obscene, vulgar, demeaning, or includes any mention of drugs, alcohol, or illegal activities it will be DENIED. Check out the photo gallery below of some of the most hilarious tags that were rejected by the Oklahoma Department of Motor Vehicles. WARNING: some of these could be considered offensive so if you're easily offended proceed with caution. You have been officially warned.

The Highest Rated Local 'Cheap Eats' Restaurants In Lawton

Sometimes you just cannot eat another bite of chain-restaurant food. There's a bit of comfort in the fact you can visit any location in the country and have the same meal, but it grows tired on the taste buds. Sometimes you just need something uniquely local and preferably within your budget.

While there are higher-rated restaurants in town, they come at a steep price. Paying $12 for a lime-washed beer or glass of wine crosses the border between eating a meal and paying extra for entertainment. Here are the highest-rated local cheap eats in Lawton according to Trip Advisor.
