For tonights blog, I decided to write about my 3 favorite brands of breeches! This was requested by one of my followers, so I decided to do it! I want to start with my number one favorites…..
Tailored Sportsman - I am sure just about every equestrian knows or at least owns a pair of Tailored Sportsman breeches. Myself, I own 5 and that hasn’t stopped me from drooling over the new colors or the tan knee patches. From breeches to belts, Tailored Sportsman has definitely dominated the equestrian world with their apparel that is not only cheaper than most brands of breeches and belts that are higher quality, they compliment any rider and the pictures definitely don’t do them justice. One of my favorite things they make besides their pants and belts is their Icefil Zip Tops. They are EXTREMELY soft, and make you feel really comfortable in the excruciating heat and the excruciatingly cold (not that I know what that feel like, I live in Florida lol). The most popular place to buy these breeches is Dover Saddlery, but exclusively online. Go to www.doversaddlery.com which will be linked below along with all of the other websites. Tailored Sportsman breeches run very true to size with the same size you would wear in jeans, or normal bottoms. Ghodho - The next brand of breeches that I will be telling you all about is Ghodho. I own two pairs of these breeches and they are PERFECT if you want something to make you look really professional but look edgy and have your own style. These breeches come in ten very unique colors and designs, two of which are show breeches (tan and white) and aren't your basic colors. I also love how they all have unique names. The names of each breech they offer are Fiona Show Breech in Tan, Sage, Deep Orchid, and Storm, Pandora Show Breech, Victoria, Pamela, Vela, Luna and Jenna. Ghodho has also released a new line of cruelty-free belts that come in red, white, and black which complement any color of their breeches perfectly. The website where you can buy these breeches (and maybe a logo saddle pad or belt to go along!) is www.ghodho.com. These breeches do run a bit on the smaller size, so for example I am a 26 in TS but I fit perfectly in a 28 in Ghodho. If you are still unsure about what size to get, they do have a size chart on the website and require you check it before proceeding with your order. I personally own two of their breeches, the Victoria and the Pamela, and had the HARDEST time picking which styles to get. There are way too many styles to just pick two but I narrowed it down, and I saw a lot of those two on social media so that definitely validated my choosing. I cannot wait to get my hands on some of the new Fiona colors and definitely use the "contact page form" if you want me to do another review on Ghodho (maybe on its own entry!). Noble Outfitters - I recently got a pair of Noble Outfitters Charcoal Balance Riding Tights and these were perfect for the hot summer rides. You might not think that tights can be flattering, or nice enough to look like breeches. These tights make you look super nice, with the contrasting knee patches, wide belt loops, full seat unstitching in the back, you can’t go wrong with these. The sizing of these tights and all of their breeches might be a bit tricky to figure out as it is in S,M,L, etc. but I am a 26 in Tailored Sportsman and I am currently an Extra Small in them. If you are a 24 or bigger in these breeches they would probably fit you very nicely! I hope you liked this blog and I am sorry I could only fit three brands on here but the truth is I haven’t really tried many different types! I like to stick with what I like and not venture out as much, especially since breeches can be pretty expensive. Thank you for the very rapid start to my blog, and I appreciate so many people reading it. I loved writing so much and I appreciate how much people commented and wanted to be an ambassador. I feel really good inside whenever I gain another follower or another view on my blog and it is like one more reader or visitor. Thank you everyone and don’t forget to comment ideas on my Instagram or on this blog or on the contact page. I love you guys!

I recently just received my package from Hunt Club, and they never fail to amaze me. In my most recent order, I got one of their Rebecca Ray Designs 2 inch wide Suede Belts in Navy, one of their Derby Belts in the navy, blue, and black color combination named Victory Gallop, the Eco Navy Sweatshirt, a Logo Baby Pad, and a Black Performance 1/4 zip (like a sun shirt). I absolutely loved all of my products I received and my personal favorites were the suede belt and the sweatshirt. I have never owned a sweatshirt as soft as the one I got from Hunt Club, and not to mention the adorable suede belt! it is 2 inches wide so it fits PERFECTLY in your Tailored Sportsman, Ghodho, and other breeches that have wide belt loops where it might not look as flattering with a belt of lesser width. Not to mention how cute the Derby belts are with the little HC logo tag on the end? That is one way to recognize your favorite brands! I also loved my performance shirt, although it is a little bit small on me because I am actually a medium but I got a small because they were out of medium but it still works and it was very comfortable! The items also shipped within two days of ordering and they got to my house 2 days after that! Everything is also packaged really nicely in tissue paper and a sticker comes with each order! I want to thank Hunt Club for the great customer service and fulfilling my order so nicely and on time. Thanks again everyone for reading all of my blogs and don’t forget to contact me or comment on this blog post (don’t forget to include your email if you wish for me to get back to you) if you have any ideas for companies you want me to interview/review one of their products, people you want me to interview, or anything of that matter! Have a great night everyone and why don’t we all try to get my Instagram to 100 followers?! Thank you to everyone who has helped make my blog successful and I can’t wait to see what the future holds! (PS: I have this new thing I am going to put at the bottom of every blog so you can go right to their website!)
Snaks 5th Avenchew - pretty much a household name on the circuit and to just about every equestrian that has an Instagram:). This treat brand is well-known for their horse and dog treat versions of human sweets! From Belgian waffles to birthday cakes, they have just about everything! This was my 12th order from them and I still can’t stop! One of the reasons I keep ordering is because of their amazing customer service. It is really assuring to know that they will always get back to you in emails, DMs, etc. because I ask so many questions and they never fail to answer and amaze! This time, I probably ordered almost everything from the site to do this review, and I was recently asked by many, “What is your favorite treat?”. I must say, with all of the creative designs and treats they sell, I could only narrow it down to two: Nicker Nibblers (with the gold topping of course!) and the Belgian Pony Waffles. There is something about the heart shaped treats with the gold on them that makes it so stunning! Not to mention how nice the teal colored frosting looks with the gold??! The Belgian waffles are another one of my favorite treats and my favorite kind has to be the red velvet ones! The shipping and packaging of these treats is also very impeccable, nothing breaks and everything comes within 1-2 days (not including the 5 required business days) bubble wrapped and protected! Something new - all orders come with stickers! Overall, Snacks 5th Avenchew’s treats are the most creative ones I have seen, and they keep coming out with new ones every season! Not to mention, they currently are set up in the Stable Row at the Hampton Classic, so if you’re going make sure to stop by and try out some of my favorite treats! Or check out their website www.snaks5thavenchew.com to see everything they offer!
