Thursday's Threads

 

Outfit Day! I swear it feels like it was just outfit day like yesterday. But fear not, I have a fresh 'fit for you guys. Al was supposed to model this week, but I forgot to take photos of him, so Shiny is standing in for him this week. Here's what she had on:

Yes, we're still wearing green. But it's fresh clean green stuff! 

Bridle: Pinnacle

Brow Band: Boy O'Boy Bridleworks

Don't let that beautiful blue sky fool you. It was ridiculously cold out there today. And the WIND! Sheesh. Spring, you could try a little bit harder. 

Saddle: Custom Saddlery
Saddle Pad: Premier Equine

I haven't used these pads in awhile, but I still really like them. Part of me wishes they'd introduce some new colors, but also I'm broke, so I hope they don't do that soon. Premier Equine makes really nice things though. I love their blankets and am constantly hoping they'll expand the options they offer in green. I may or may not have emailed them requesting such a thing...

Boots: Anky

I know you've all seen these tons. They're definitely one of my favorites. They aren't available anymore so I hope they last!

That's what Shiny is wearing today and here's what I had on:

Why, yes, I was matching the saddle pad nearly exactly. Thanks for noticing!

Helmet: One K Avance CCS MIPS

I'm still wearing this helmet. I'll probably be wearing it until we move home at the end of April. But you never know! Maybe I'll try surprise us. Also, Eros wasn't modeling this week, but he wanted to be included. So here he is.

Sweater: PS of Sweden

I got this AGES ago and wear it all the time. It's a lovely sweater. I also have it in navy. I believe the base layer is from smartwool, but I'm not positive on brand for that one. The vest you see in the helmet photo is from Old Navy last year. 

Belt: Tory Burch

I've had this one awhile too. I love the shade of green!

Breeches: Vestrum

I bought these specifically to wear for Halloween outfits, but I've actually worn them a lot more often than I expected to. I really like them. I also grabbed a ridiculously cheap pair of yellow ones that are the same model. If you're ever thinking about Vestrum breeches, these are the Syracuse model and they run big, I am generally a 28 in TS and somewhere in between a 42 and 44 in Equiline, but these are a 42 and are roomy. 

Boots: Horka

Heh... so I just searched my emails to see when I bought these boots, and I've had them for NINE years. That's pretty impressive. I don't wear them all that regularly I guess, but I wear them a bunch and they're actually in pretty good shape for how old they are. They're meant to look distressed, so don't judge that appearance negatively! Not bad for $250 boots.

That's it for today! Any favorites? What's the longest you've ever had a pair of boots?
