Belt it out! Hermès Spring 2024
So, fashionistas and equestrians alike have been donning the H belt for decades. It's cool, durable and well let's face it..it's chic. The H belt is a badge of luxury. Now, we have a new belt in town..the 1/2 gold eggbutt snaffle? Definitely a fashion forward rendition of it. What do you think? Spring 2024 Hermes show Paris, France.
Yay or Neigh? CHANEL
What a week for #equestrianstyle. Chanel stormed the social media channels with Princess Charlotte Casiraghi of Monaco opening their couture show on horseback. A stunt that many would agree should be only reserved for Hermès, Burberry or Longchamps. And yet, there she was riding down the runway.

Have we become so overly judgmental that having a horse on the runway gives us the carte blanche [...]

ON TRACK with HERMES SS19
So you couldn't imagine our excitement when we found out that HERMES was showing it's latest SPRING RTW 2019 collection at the Longines racetrack. We had just finished our latest issue (due out October 23) where we featured OTTB aftercares and actually shot an editorial at a racetrack. Naturally, we all patted ourselves on the back for being so on point with the future. LOL. We like doing that, patting ourselves on the backs, it's what keeps us going as equestrians. Needless to say, the Hermes collection, devoid of anything horsey this time around, walked an unusual, sophisticated line between [...]
CHLOE and the HORSES
Chloe is not new to the steed-emblazoned looks. Natacha Ramsay Levi is still riding high on her equestrian 70s statements and it has proven the fashion house well so why stop there? Resort is full of jersey dresses, blouses and chunky jewelry that has the horse stamp all over it. We thank you Natacha for once again bucking the norm and embracing the beloved horse. Here are some of our favs from the collection
