Merry Christmas to all who celebrate! I technically do not celebrate Christmas as I am a full blooded Jewish person. But I'm always down for a good theme, and I love Christmas movies. So obviously it makes sense that I would have A Christmas Story themed outfit to wear for the holiday. I even used this theme for my holiday card one year. Love me a leg lamp! Haha! Shiny was our model today by default. I rode her first because conditions were iffy and she's the least likely to kill me. But she was even spooking so I opted out of riding the others. Fortunately, she is an excellent model! So here's what she had on:
The best model! Look how cute she is.
Bridle: Pinnacle
Browband: Dark Jewel Designs
I can't remember if I've shared these bitless bridles with you guys? I think I have. I wasn't happy with the La Cense ones I had. They were pretty to look at, but the leather quality was pretty bad and they didn't really fit my horses well. So I upgraded to these from Pinnacle and I'm really happy with them.
Bareback Pad: Brockamp
Saddle Pad and quarter sheet: Hopeful Equestrian
I haven't ridden my horses since Sunday and I felt perfectly safe to hop on Shiny in a bareback pad and bitless bridle. And that's why I am a grown ass woman with a pony. She's the best! You might have to click to enlarge this photo to really get the full effect of how cute this print is. It has the leg lamp AND the pink nightmare on it! I think the bb gun too. It's so fun!
Boots: DSB, embellished by me with some fabric from Spoonflower
Heehee. More leg lamp. Tis the season! Also, I'm still loving my interchangeable boot idea. I really need to get these on the market.
So that's what Shiny wore today for Christmas, and here's what I had on:
Fra-gee-lay! Hahahaha! I kill me.
Helmet: One K Avance CCS with MIPS
I thought this was the perfect option for this outfit.
Sweater: A Christmas Story
Oh yes, it absolutely does light up. At least for now. I did chores in it and rode in it today. The chances of the lights surviving me washing it are slim. It is impressive though, that I've had this sweater since 2019 and it still works!
Belt: C4
This belt came out several years ago, and I don't think I've ever added something to cart so fast in my life. It's so perfect.
Breeches: Tailored Sportsman in color Cherry
Chaps: Journeyman
Paddock Boots: Celeris UK
I dunno guys, the weatherman said it would be less windy today, but it absolutely was not. One of my jumps blew over while I was on Shiny even. Ridiculous! Thank goodness for my warm chaps or I probably would not have braved the elements even on Shiny.
Socks: Dreamers and Schemers
I wear these Christmas poop socks almost every year. Do you all get the reference? South Park had a character named Mr Hanky the Christmas Poop. It's gross potty humor, but kinda funny, and I think of Mr Hanky every year when I clean stalls on Christmas. So obviously I needed to own Christmas poo socks. I've had them awhile, but since they only get worn once a year, they're lasting very nicely.
Okay, that's it for our silly A Christmas Story outfit. Hope you all had a wonderful holiday if you celebrate, or a lovely day off if you don't!
