What We Wear and then Some

So, today I wanted to make a little post sharing what gear Ava and I wear during a ride. But before I get started I wanted to mention that a wonderful blogger named Mary has an awesome 100 follower giveaway, she is giving away a beautiful customized grooming tote bag to one winner, everyone should enter!! You can find it here at Simply Horse-Crazy.

Also, yesterday I went to see The Hunger Games movie with some family and friends. It was... indescribable and the actors couldn't have done better. I read the books way before the movie came out and after reading the books it gave me a pain in my heart, kept me crying and depressed for weeks (literally,) but left me with an amazing story that will stay with me for as long as I live. I truly do not have words for it. Has anyone read the books or gone to see the movie?
 

Well, now, let's see what I've been wearing...
•Stubben all purpose saddle, got it for $20 at a sale- literally the best saddle I've owned
•Black biothene stirrup leathers
•Safety stirrup irons
•Fleece and nylon english girth
•Dover saddlery quilted purple all purpose saddle pad
•Tipperary Sportage helmet, I saved for a long time for that helmet and it was well worth it!
•Ariat riding/hiking boots, comfy and perfect for everything
•Bosal with black nylon mecate reins
•Dark oil western headstall
•I also wear black Kerrits riding tights and silver/gray Irideon riding tights as well, forgot to add them in the picture, so comfy!

Well, at the moment that is all Ava and I wear when we go for a riding.

  1. I've read the hunger games and saw the movie. Loved the books. The movie was good but there were some lines in the book I wish they would have put in the movie. Just cute little lines like when Katniss finds Peeta and Peeta says "have you come to kill me off sweetheart?" Loveeeeee! I think the book is better then the movie but still loved thr movie.

    1. Oh, I definitely agree! There were so many lines that should've been put into the movie but they still did a great job with it.
