Thursday's Threads

 

Outfit Day! AND I have a RIDING outfit today! It's not a crazy exciting one, cause you know, mud everywhere. But still. I HAVE BREECHES ON! And my new helmet that I bought two months ago. But first... Here's what Eros wore this week:

They've all lost a ton of muscle so we have a lot of work to do. But his weight isn't too bad for all that time off. And I can see his summer coat coming in! Pretty shiny too considering we haven't done our first baths yet. 

Bridle: Pinnacle

Browband: Boy O'Boy Bridleworks

I'm still really happy with these bridles. They aren't the softest most luxurious, but for the price point they are really holding up beautifully. And the horses like them which is most important. 

Saddle: Butet
Half Pad: Mattes
Baby Pad: Ogilvy

Oh how I've missed sitting in this! I was very happy to discover my saddles to be mold free after I've ignored them for several months. I did dedicate a day to cleaning and conditioning them at some point during our hiatus. But I haven't looked at them since. 

I don't have a wrap photo today because we go bare legged in muddy conditions.

Okay, my turn!!

Man it feels good to wear breeches again.

Helmet: Samshield

Look at this glossy bad boy! It's so shiny you can see my phone taking the photo. They had a navy one too that I was hoping I could get soon, but looks like it's since sold. Bummer. 

Sweater:THML

You've all seen this sweater before. It's one of my favorites!

Belt: Mane Jane

Good news if you ever wanted one of these Mane Jane belts but never got around to getting one. They've brought them back! I love them so much, 10/10 highly recommend.

Breeches:RJ Classics

You might remember that my TS brown breeches met a possibly embarrassing demise during a vet appointment last summer. I was planning to replace them with another pair of TS but hadn't gotten around to it. Back in December I went to a tent sale at my closest tack store and they had these RJ's for under $100 so I got them instead. I was worried they might not fit after this very long winter, but they're good! (Phew.)

Half Chaps and Paddock Boots: HKM

I like how these half chaps attach to the boots rather than having that bulky bottom with the elastic under your foot. Especially during mud season! They aren't the most durable but they're also not very expensive, so my expectations are low for them. They're very comfortable and I think very attractive, so I do recommend them, even if they might not live forever. I absolutely would buy them again. 

And that's it for today! Any favorite items from today? How about that glossy helmet?!
