[severnmiles]

Arrrgggghhhh

does anyone else hate seeing this..sorry to VP and SB!

 

[Rambo]

Can't say i lose too much sleep over it....nope

 

[Weezy]

Cannot say it bothers me

 

[SillyMare]

Doesn't wind me up, but I don't think it looks as good.

Having said that, I can see how it could be tempting. Cream is just so unforgiving!!

[LEC]

P_G...Archie looks a giant in the last pic in your siggy!!

 

[CastleMouse]

What seriously drives me mad is people wearing dirty suede chaps and boots or Mountain Horse Rimfrost Rider yard boots out hunting... Or when people wear coats instead of a hunting or show jacket...

 

[josie_s]

I dont like it either. It should be light colours only, anything else is just not right

Oopsie, sorry

I wear a white stock with a tweed jacket out hunting, but for dressage and showing I wear a red tie with white spots.

 

[Evadiva1514]

Must admit, i don't like seeing people going xc in dark breeches but i can sort of see where they are coming from, from a practical/ washing point of view LOL!!

I would always wear cream myself mind!

 

[tigers_eye]

Oooo, was very much the norm in Belgium, and is very practical! But have to say military strips - like the household cavalry or the odd MPN class really does it for me

Only if Dickie is wearing the breeches... mmmmm

 

[Baggybreeches]

In a hypocritical way I agree with you, but you should know that last weekend I went round a Hunter Trials with mushroomy coloured breeches on, basically because I only have 1 pair or of show breeches and was fully expecting to hit the deck! I dont fancy walking round all season with a washed out mud patch on my bum!

 

[BBs]

I do think it looks out of place, although i dont mind the slightly darker beige. I have a pair which i wore yesterday - but my arse still looked too big *sulk*

Much prefer wearing my brown jods, but just doesnt look great when competing.
