Thursday's Threads

 

Outfit Day! Unfortunately, I've forgotten this entire week to get photos of Shiny's outfit, and she was meant to model today... But I did get some video yesterday, so we'll grab a screen shot and share it that way.

I remembered after I typed that last sentence that I had the zoom error in her video yesterday... So I guess this show above is the best we have to work with. Sorry about that guys! I've been so distracted this week! Anyway... She is wearing her Joseph Sterling bridle with the Dark Jewel Designs spike brow band. Hwer saddle is her same old Custom Saddlery one. Though I may have found a used Butet that will her. Fingers crossed! And let's hope I can find some braiding jobs to make that happen. Her saddle pad is Ogilvy, and her half pad is Le Mieux. Her boots which you can barely see are Busse. 

I did remember to photograph my own outfit at least. So let's see that!

Not a big surprise since you already saw it in Shiny's photo.... 

Helmet: One K (non MIPS)

One K has yet to make a MIPS helmet in brown, so I'm wearing this one without the MIPS. Living on the edge!

Shirt: Luyaa

I still love these shirts. I wear them almost every day. 

Belt: Zazzle

You all know I love me some Zazzle belts. 

Breeches: RJ Classics Harper

I think they stopped making this model, likely due to the pocket problems they have. For some reason, the pockets on this model open up at the bottom so you don't actually have pockets. Just a well of emptiness that dumps into your boots. Regardless, I love the breeches. I haven't tried the newer models they have out, but I imagine they have something similar still.

Boots: Horka... or maybe HKM

Funny story about these fun boots... I bought these like 8 years ago I think. I'm not exactly sure because I can't find the email confirmation for them which is also why I have no idea what brand they are. Anyway, I got them ages ago, but they had that same patent croc on the inside. After riding in them once I deemed them awful because they were slippery and they squeaked. But then one day my dad was talking about a shoe maker near his NYC apartment, and so I asked if he would take these boots to get a leather patch put on. He did take them, but then there was Covid and the shop closed up. I forgot all about the boots, but my dad had them in New York all this time. I guess he found a new shoe repair guy because a couple weeks ago he returned the boots to me. I had literally erased these things from my memory, so it was a fun day when I got new boots that were already mine! They are perfect now with their nice leather patches, though a bit too wide as I got these before we figured out my Thyroid issue and my legs were still swollen. Whatever though, better a bit too wide than too small! 

And that's it for today! Hopefully I'll have my act together better for next week.
