Thursday's Threads: Dinosaur edition

Happy Outfit day everyone! Well, despite our best attempts to avoid it here in New England, it's feeling more like fall out there today. I actually wore socks today. Bummer. But with cooler temps come cute sweaters, so there is a bright side! Here's what I wore today:

Why yes, that IS a stegosaurus on my sweater! Thanks for noticing! I forgot to switch to my triceratops purse today so that's kind of a bummer. But fear not, I have plenty more dinos to share anyway.

Sweater: ModCloth

I'm not really sure where my current love for dinosaurs came from. It might have been the super cute Kate Spade triceratops and t-rex purses that have been floating around Ebay (no I didn't get one, they're like $500). But wherever it came from, I'm pretty excited to own this sweater. It's really light weight, so perfect for this weather.

Belt: Buckle Down

I love a good seat belt for a belt, and this one especially since it's covered in dinosaurs. It's not quite as amazing as the beer cap one I have from high school (yeah, I thought it was cool then too...) but it's a close second.

Jeans: Vigoss Jeans

These are about as plain as they come. But I really like this brand. They make jeans for women with curves and the length is almost always perfect for me.

Sneakers: Vans

Yep. Those are dinosaurs hanging at the beach. Sunnies, palm trees, board shorts... the whole thing! Hilarious.

Arm Party!
Lefty:

Lefty kept it simple in an effort to remember that I am indeed a grown up and not an 8 year old. The bracelet is designer inspired and my apple watch is sporting it's shiny new leather band!

Righty:

Righty has decided to embrace both the adult AND the 8 year old. The first two are some stretch bracelets I made that relate to my horses. The first one has Jamp's name on it, a t-rex bead (because he's Jamposaurus Rex), a blue ribbon, and underneath is a dark bay pony. The next one is Rio's. It has a giant cookie sandwich because his alias is Handsome Cookie, and the rest of the beads are the same as Jampy's. And last is a blue H bracelet to pretend I'm a classy adult.

I had a fun riding outfit last night too for you guys!

It's almost like camouflage for my tack room...

Helmet: Charles Owen AYR8

Greeny is back in the rotation! I think I need to clean him up a little, looking a little dusty...

Shirt: Kerrits

I've shared this one before. I can't decide if it's a great horse shirt, or kind of ugly. But it's really comfortable, and I love it either way. Plus it has ponies all over.

Belt: Ariat

I scored this one from Tack of the Day awhile back. I should have sized down as I need to punch a hole for the higher waisted breeches. But it was a great deal. It reverses to a plain brown belt too so you can be classy when necessary.

Breeches: SmartPak Piper

I maybe fell for that whole buy two get one free deal SmartPak had over the weekend. Oops. I wasn't going to. I didn't need three more pairs of breeches. I REALLY didn't. But they had green with tan patches. And I mean, I have a few pairs of green breeches, but that IS my main barn color, and the tan is my trim color... So obviously, if I was going to get them, I should take advantage of the deal. I also got the gray ones with turquoise piping and a pair of houndstooth/plaid ones. I usually get 28's in the pipers, but they're pretty snug so I sized up this time. I kind of regret that. I think I'm in between sizes. But probably these will shrink some in the dryer. Better too big than too small, am I right?

Boots: Horka

I'm trying to wear these more, because I really do like them. I love how tall they are especially! And that they are really comfy. They're almost as comfy as the Regals!

Spurs: Centaur
Straps: Ovation

These are still my favorite spurs. I wish I could get these exact spurs done up in the unicorn/oil slick process. That would be super fun. Not for this outfit though, obviously.

Baby Pad: Lettia
Girth: Jack's Mfg.
Saddle: Hermes
Half Pad: Horze

Rio got rained out last night (it started pouring about 5 minutes after I got inside with Jampy). (Also, there was a snake in my wash stall and I screamed like a little girl. Jampy and I both ran away. Then the snake ran away. But he's living in that rotten post. There is much drama in my life some days.) Anyway, do notice I found green fuzzy girths for the boys. Too far? I think not.

That's it for today! How's the weather where you are? Have you switched to the autumn wardrobe? Any favorites from today?
