Soooo. Before I was brainwashed by bloggerdom, I was perfectly content in a pair of jeans, half chaps and my dying paddock boots.
Circa 2012:
 |
| Tipperary helmet. Beatles t-shirt from Walmart. A yellow belt I made myself. Prolly Old Navy or Gap jeans (99% chance thrifted). Half chaps I bought in college. Dying Saxon paddock boots. |
 |
| Another Walmart t-shirt. The rest the same. |
And then something happened.
Mid-2013:
These spandex pants adhered themselves to my legs and tall boots magically appeared on my feet.
My wardrobe continues on a pretty defined path: Tipperary helmet, old race t-shirt or cheap t-shirt or tank top (untucked!), breeches (normally Tuffrider), Target socks, Saxon equi-leather tall boots. The last pair of Saxon boots I had held up for several years. This pair sucks.

| My breeches self, composed of those that I don't wear often. In fact, the rose and green Tuffriders still have the tags. |
 |
| And the breeches I wear a lot, hanging out to dry. Side note: tell me how fucking awesome that chair rail is, because I did that shit all by myself! |
And since the only shows that I've done have been schooling shows, I top the nicest breeches I own with a polo and call it done:
 |
| Tipperary helmet. A generic black polo over a 3/4 length black shirt, because I was concerned about the half-sleeve. Mango Bay 3-day belt. Breeches that made me look preggo. Saxons. |
 |
| A men's athletic polo, purchased at Ross. Mango Bay belt. Side-zip Ariat pro-circuit breeches (thrifted). Dying Saxons. |
