An Interruption to Your Regular Programming...


...to chat about fantasy horsey Christmas gifts. Now we all know our ultimate gift would be a new horse, or a barn, or a trailer...I am talking things that are slightly more attainable. Slightly. So here are some of the (admittedly personalized) best fantasy Christmas gift ideas for that lovely horse-lady in your life:)

10. Newmarket Dress Sheet

What english rider hasn't coveted them at one point or another? And the best part is now you can more than the original gold/red/black! $125.99
9.) Ariat Bristol Jacket
 
Flattering fit, looks expensive and the most convenient color you can wear to the barn--brown! You can wear it to the barn, wash it and throw it on with your skinny jeans and cute boots for a darling winter look. OH so versatile ;) $109.95
 
 
8.) Pessoa Gen X XCH Saddle
 
Gorgeous leather, nice balance and a not terrible price makes this a lovely saddle for just about anyone. Price point is right there in the middle ground. $1519.00


7.) Custom Name Plates

The one I've listed is brass and is ALSO magnetic, which makes it ideal for metal barns, or for those of us who show and like to have name plates on our show stalls. A very thoughtful, and very REASONABLE gift:) $14.99


6.) Customized Padded Halters

This is one I don't have, and wish I did. Tons of colors to choose from, and endless fonts and styles of name plates. This particular brand is affordable and seems to be a nice quality. $99


5.) Cordoba Andalusian Riding Boots

Found at SmartPak, these gorgeous boots fit right in with out of the barn trends, while still being functional barn boots. Plenty of heel and rubber sole make them safe for riding, thick quality two-toned leather makes them good for wear, and the looks are certainly stand-out. Want! $274.95

4.) IRH Switch Tab Helmet

Safety, comfort and style? Check! The resurgence of the helmet came about a couple years ago when a well-known dressage rider Courtney King was injured in an everyday accident where her mount slipped and fell and caused her brain damage. Thank god for her, because I've always thought we should all be wearing helmets, but of course nobody thought it was cool. Now not only is it okay to wear a helmet, it can be downright stylish! The IRH makes one good helmet, nicely shaped and well-fitting and this one brings it to a whole nother level. You can satisfy your need for bling and color while at home, and still have the ability to change out that center tab to black or silver if you want to show in your helmet--as you should:) $99.95

3.) Gersemi Full Seat Breeches

Lovely fit, good quality and soooo cute! At $178.95 they really aren't terribly priced either, for good quality breeches!

2.) Oakcraft Plaid Tack Trunk

WANT. NOW. But seriously, so gorgeous, and useful too! Yes, I am aware they are as much as some horses, but these will LAST. Right? The price tag on this baby is $934.95

1.) Artemis Black/Brown Padded Bridle

I love this bridle. With it being brown and black you can use it with both your hunter and your dressage saddle, just remove the flash! Classy, flashy and still not obnoxious. This baby runs $179 and is totally worth it!




That is all! If I had everything on this list, I'd be one spoiled girl! Maybe someday!:)
