Off they go..... it sure is time again for camp season, and what is more fun then going to care for horses and ride some ponies! Of course you have to be outfitted with just the right stuff! Everything from half chaps, riding gloves and breeches we have just the right thing your child needs.I sent our cousin off with one of those backpacks, a total success!
This coming Saturday, 10th of July is national helmet day! And in that light I got a question from a customer earlier today about fitting a helmet for her toddler. Her daughter has a small head (of course) and she was wondering if she could just use a bike helmet. Sounds tempting doesn't it? Well guess what, a bike helmet is not up to ATSM/SEI standards with regards to Equestrian sports. Be safe! Don't forget your child with a great looking toddler pony helmet!
Oh, my, this heat wave here in the Northeast! I find it hard to keep cool while outside. I'm sure people in the South are laughing about all of this, as it is more the norm for them. It is not normally this hot here and my horses are trying to stay cool in the shade, with this small breeze we have. I'm glad there is at least a bit of a breeze, as we are totally haunted by flies, bugs, mosquito's and the works.
On days like these I'm glad I ride in this horse exercise fly sheet. OK, so we look like an alien, and sure the other horses have their eyes bulging the first time, but with this fly sheet we are simply not bothered by the bugs and can even have a relaxed ride. Can you imagine, a horse barely bothered by the flying enemy? The saddle recess fits great around the English saddle and with the stirrups out.
My rides have greatly improved, so much less tension. I have worked the horse nicely at a comfortable walk, trot and canter. Now the only thing left is me....... I'm the target now :(
I have finally finished adding all the 'Karin' breeches to the website. These breeches are made by Horka, and are the new style. I have to admit I kinda like them :). They are of a slightly thinner fabric, but very comfortable to ride in. And with the pockets styled like your favorite pair of jeans, you simply can't go wrong. They also come in a ton of GREAT colors.
So are you watching 'more to love'?. A more realistic 'reality show'. It is very hard for the plus size rider to find fashionable and distinguished horse riding breeches. Horka has now come with a line for the womanly-sized rider. The breeches come either in full seat or knee patch in the colors black, tan and a beautiful distinguished dark chocolate! As always with Horka, you can expect a great fit! And the fabric is just wonderful, like wearing sweatpants, but then fitted with a little bit of lycra to assure that panty lines, and to smooth things out just a little :)
So in the next few days or so, I have a shipment of about 300 breeches arrive here. I checked their flight status (LOL) and they arrived @ JFK yesterday AM. So now I just have to wait till they get here. In the mean time I have been re-arranging and updating some of my existing pages on the website, and wanted to mention these. A nice pair of cotton knit breeches and the color tan is quite right for the show ring. And they are at a good price @ $64.50.
By the way, we are now also on Twitter find us @EquineFashion. And we are gaining lots of fans on Facebook. Come and find us there too!
I go to alot of shows with my tack and breeches, and just by profession I look at everybody and what they are wearing, what is in, and what is not. How do certain styles look on people, what is the fit etc etc. I just want to make sure that I find what makes us look good.
And *poof* there are the spandex breeches! I have purchased several styles of this material, because no matter what style, or body type, size 24R to 44R, this just makes things go in the right place, and it doesn't add bulk. Anyways, to make a long story short here is the link to the H/J show breeches, for now just in tan with Euro Seat (yeah, what you saw @ WEF!), rust and olive may come soon!
