Thursdays Threads: Would you like fries with that?

 


Outfit Day! Al and I had some fun this week. I've been waiting for just the right moment to bust this outfit out... Okay, well really I was just waiting for it to be warm enough to wear short sleeves. Regardless, it's TIME! Here's what we had on:

I know. You can't tell what it is from here. But we had a friend hanging out with us while we rode and so I actually had a photo on the horse to share! 

Here's what Al had on without me:
And yes, he was having some concerns about the neighbor this day. In Al's defense it was our first day back to work after his three day vacation. 

Bridle: Joseph Sterling
Brow band: Home made
I with you could see the browband better. It's happy meal boxes, burgers, fries, and drinks. Very silly. 

Saddle: Butet
Half Pad: Ippico
Saddle Pad: Dreamers and Schemers


Guys look! It's nuggets! WITH A CAPE! I generally prefer Ogilvy baby pads, but I couldn't resist this nugget pad. I love a good chicken nuggie. And I feel like if Al were a human child he would also. 

Boots: Premier Equine, embellished by me

Hahaha! I know right? So funny. Using patches to embellish the interchangeable boots is a real game changer. The opportunities are now endless. ENDLESS!

Okay my turn!

I've worn red breeches a lot more frequently than I ever imagined I would.

Helmet: Samshield
I had a really challenging time trying to decide what helmet and boots to wear. Nothing really screams Happy Meal ya know? So I just went with black options. 

Tee: Etsy
I went hunting on Etsy for a shirt to wear with this saddle pad, and this one just seemed perfect to me. I may go back and get a hoodie version because it brings me a lot of silly joy. I mean... I didn't choose the nug life. The nug life chose me. 

Belt: McDonalds
I have a knockoff version of the Moschino sweater that's meant to look like the McDonalds logo. So when I got that years ago, I bought this buckle from Ebay too. It's perfect for my happy meal outfit!

Breeches: Dover
Listen, I bought these a few years ago, so I'm not getting involved in the Dover drama. I've experienced first hand what private equity firms can do to a company. It's selfish and not pretty. But also, all the people saying not to shop the closing sales, I don't disagree, but the sales aren't a great deal. They're offering 20% off some things and only like 10% in stores. Not worth it anyway. 

Socks: Dreamers and Schemers
Honestly, how do you NOT get the socks that match the saddle pad? It's a no question purchase. 

Boots and Half Chaps:HKM
I figured this outfit was a lot all on its own, so I went with the simplest option in my boot cupboard. I'm glad I have these, they're comfortable and go with everything. 

That's it for today! Did this ridiculous outfit bring you the joy it brought me? I'm so entertained by it!
