Thursday's Threads

 

Outfit Day! Nothing too exciting this week, but honestly last week should hold you over in the silly department for awhile. In honor of being home this week, we dressed in farm colors again. Al was our model which was a challenge because already on day 1 the neighbor scared the shit out of him. I really didn't miss that guy all winter. Anyway, here's what Al was wearing this week:

He poses nicely when he's staring at the big threat next door.

Bridle: Pinnacle
Brow Band: Boy O'Boy Bridleworks
I know you've seen this all winter. I nearly used the glitter bridles today, but since it was the first ride at home, I thought maybe I'd stick to what we're used to. 

Saddle: Butet
Half Pad: Mattes
Baby Pad: Ogilvy
There's nothing prettier than a well fitting saddle all nestled into it's fluffy half pad. Wish I could make this happen for all the horses... Lol. Saddles. Ugh.

Boots: Horze
I love this shade of green! You know what's annoying? Companies make pretty things that I love in nice colors, and they're always limited edition. Limited edition this, limited edition that... Like can they just make stuff continuously so when they break I can replace them? These aren't breaking (yet) but it's just something that's been annoying me lately. 

Anyway, that's what Al wore this week, and here's what I had on:
Happy to report I was able to stuff myself back into my size 26 breeches. Finally! 

Helmet: One K
I did not realize how bad this photo was... I have no idea what spilled all over the helmet, but I suspect it's Al's U-shield. And why does it look like I have a bruise across my nose? Dirt maybe? I dunno. Maybe next week I'll look like I clean myself once in awhile. 

Hoodie: Walmart
Shirt: Luyaa
I think this silly tan hoodie is one of my favorites and I got it at Walmart. So fancy! Ha! It's super soft though, and the zipper slides so nicely. More than I can say for a lot of pricier ones!

Belt: Zazzle
The buckle isn't aging well, but I love this belt so much. It doesn't actually look so worn in real life. 

Breeches: Tailored Sportsman
I've been avoiding this pair of breeches all winter because I put on a few pounds. But I haven't done laundry in awhile so I figured I'd give it a shot. And they fit! Yay! That was a happy surprise today.

Socks: Dreamers and Schemers
I had to wear my socks with the barn on them for out first at home ride. Obviously.

Boots: Imperial Riding
I am very excited to have easy access to ALL THE BOOTS now that we're back home. I have a really fun pair to break in so expect to see those soon. In the meantime, these aren't quite broken in yet either. These actually aren't my size, and if I ever have some extra cash around I would like to reorder them in the correct size. I had gotten them from Europe and the size stamped on the inside of the boots did not match the box. They're a tall slim, and I need a regular regular. I have very large heel lifts in there to get them to work. For now it'll do. And thanks to the laces I was able to zip them up. It would have been too big of a hassle and probably cost to ship them back, though I could have argued it was the stores error. At least I can wear them though! They're really pretty! 

Is there anything you're looking forward to seeing on Thursday's Threads? Let me know, maybe I'll wear it next!

  1. I was grateful to have enough pleasant spring days to enjoy all my nice light weight long sleeve shirts… but those days seem over now. Oh well!
