Thursday's Threads: St Patrick's Day edition

 

Outfit Day!! You'll have to use your imagination a little with this one because we didn't get to actually ride in our St Patty's day outfit this year. We're going to use some old photos from our Pinsnickety photo shoot that the very talented Chelsea Lothrop took a few years ago for Eros' outfit. Here's what he would have worn this week if the weather had played nicer. 

He would have been wearing his Joseph Sterling bridle with the Dark Jewel spiked browband. He has a cute Pinsnickety pin in his forelock in this photo. 

He also would have been wearing his Butet saddle, this mattes pad, and that adorable Lettia baby pad. We probably wouldn't have had a number on though. 

That's what the horses would have worn (more or less) and here's what I had on, because I did have high hopes that we might ride.

Nothing says St Patty's like green and gold! I really had no idea I'd get so much use of these $50 Winnie the Pooh colored breeches. 

Sweater: Luyaa

This is one of my many inexpensive wool sweaters that are perfect for the barn. This one has a weird neck line though. I think it's stretched out. But whatever. Horse clothes don't have to be perfect. 

Belt: Unbranded

Buckle: Ovation

I'm not sure what happened to the strap this belt actually came with, but I'm using it on this yellow one today. It doesn't look it here, but the belt and the breeches are pretty much the exact same shade. 

Breeches: Vestrum

These are a ridiculous color for breeches. RIDICULOUS. But here we are. Loving them! Ha! 

Socks: Dreamers and Schemers

I've had a few lucky themed boot socks over the years, but these are my favorites so far. 

Since I didn't ride, I didn't wear boots or a helmet. But here's what I would have worn if I did. 

Boots: TuffRider (embellished by me) 

Helmet: Equinavia

I'm really impressed with how the glitter paint has held up on these boots over the years. Makes me want to paint more boots... but I won't. For now anyway. I'm looking into a fun new green helmet from Fair Play to possibly replace this one. I don't love how this helmet fits me so I hardly ever wear it. But I'm not sure the Fair Play one will be any better. It's really pretty though! 

Okay that's it for this week! Any favorites? Anything you guys want to see soon? Themes, colors? Anything? Let me know in the comments!
