Ride for a Cure

Since October is Breast Care Awareness month, it seems only right to showcase some of the really great products that horse companies have come out with to help support the cause. And best of all, most are amazingly adorable.

This is a newer Charles Owen GR8 helmet, around $300

This is a new Kensington Blanket from the Smartpak Smart Pink Plaid Line. All the products in the Smartpink line help contribute to Breast Cancer research.
Brand new are the SSG Ride for a Cure Gloves. They come in white and black as well as other colors, I believe.



Last, one of my favorite products is the Lettia Breast Care Awareness pad.

I wish I had a cute little mare that i could smother with pink!!! I love the pink-white-black combinations... and, remember, its for an EXCELLENT cause, so dont hesitate to support breast cancer awareness and research with some adorable products!

Reverse!

Most of the entries on this blog have to do with how people-fashion morphs into equestrian and equine-fashion. But, Im sure most people have noticed just the opposite lately, with more and more equestrian fashion translating into everyday fashion. From J-Crew all the way up to Balenciaga, its EVERYWHERE.

"Riding Boots" to me, the idea of wearing tall boots if you dont have to is absolutely a painful one.

Jodphur-Inspired Pants... im one of those people who cant go anywhere still dressed in breeches so to me, this doesnt really do anything. But without the suede knee and full-seat patches, I imagine its more wearable.

Fitted Equestrian Blazers... i actually am a fan of fitted blazers, and think that this is something that definitely wearable.

And, my personal favorite, from the Balenciaga Fall 2006 Runway Show, the infamous helmet. This thing has been all over magazines on celebrities like LiLo, but I have yet to seen it worn in real life...


Ofcourse, you cant forget one of the most unnecessary displays of equestrian fashion, Laura Bennet, contestant...actually finalist on Project Runway, who paraded around in a collared shirt, tan breeches and tall boots in not one but two episodes!

Gucci Coochi

You've seen the Gucci sunglasses and bits with the horse bits, and even the newer Gucci saddlebag but now there is the Gucci AP saddle! This pic is from Bucks County Saddlery, in Pennsylvania. Apparently when they had it for sale it was about $11,000! Hopefully they will have it for sale again soon!
