Getting my horse in the week and im so excited! He is a Conemara, 14.2hh, grey called Storm. A few questions to ask.
1) Black or Brown tack?
2) I can't think of a show name.
3) And what colour do greys look good in.

Thanks

Misty doesn't really have a colour scheme..purple and pinks mostly, just coz it's girly but i'm not sure whether your boy will appreciate that.
Maybe just sticking to black or navy ?

I hope you're stocking up on stain removers...:P
No idea about show name. I'm stil thinking of one for misty.
And black tack!

Although mine is currently black AND brown ... =]
 
1. If he's dappled then black tack, if he's white grey then it doesn't matter to much.
2. Connemara Storm
Snow storm (to fit in weather)
I'm not very good at names.
3. My grey looks good in most colours to be honest, she has lots of blue, pink and black. She also has green and white and she looks good in all of it.

Hope you have lots of fun with him, connies are great!
 
How exciting for you! Hope it all goes well.
I have a grey and they look great in anything - mine is a spoilt brat and has brown tack for GP and black for dressage but would look fabulous in anything!!(I know I am biased!) but I have drawn the line at anything pink (my neice keeps trying) but he is a boy! But did find myself looking lustfully at new bridle with a sparkly browband which I think would suit him....See greys a are actually soooo much harder because they look fabulous in anything!!
 
Hehe i love it to, Tequila Sunrise for shows and Suni for short

Barcadi would be good in misty's show name! I don't know how you could put the two together but i like it

My conne x is a rose grey and I have her in brown tack (looks good on her and my personal preference is brown!!)

She has a dark purple/lilac saddle cloth and it suits her brilliantly. They can pretty much get away with any colour, it depends whether you want to gay him up in pink or sae his graces with a, "boy" colour.

Put silver sparkley bits on him regardless though!!

I'd go for black tack, unless you're showing in a discipline that requires brown. For numnahs etc, either stick to black/white, or really rich strong colours, like dark green or blue or purple, or dark red. Since he's a Storm, maybe stick to cool colours, though.
