As I'm finally becoming more and more confident in riding my young mare Accenta, who on clean days, pretends to be a palomino, I'm starting to feel a need to buy some new saddle cloths for her.
Struggling with colours to compliment her and so need you lot to post lots of photos of palominos wearing various colours to help me decide what will suit her best.
Appel gebak (very delicious Dutch apple pie) and ice cream for the effort.

I always had royal blue for mine,which looked lovely, but he looked great with my other horse's red stuff on him too. Green was ok. Yellow was awful, as would be pink, I expect.

Turquoise or white.

Can you post a pic of her? Maybe it would help us to get a better idea of her colour. Or just an opportunity to go "ooooooohhhh, pretty palomino!"

Nugz isn't a palomino, but a paleish chestnut with flaxen mane/tail - he looks good in tans/browns, blacks, dressage whites (tbh, what doesn't) and either lime green or a dark green. In between greens look a bit odd with him. Looks very cute (and barbie dollesque) in pale pink. Blues doesn't seem to do anything for him...well me :D
