I like Fur Feather Meds but Equissentials seem to only have dressage cut and I need GP :)

Have you tried asking them to order in? Believe they have an offer on at the moment so you might get a nice bargain :)

Can confirm the Lemieux turquoise and fuchsia are AMAZING! Can't wait for blueberry!

Oo the controversy :D we preferred it on Skylla :D.

Topaz and Doodle came to us with their stable names, but my dad picked Skylla, it was one of the eight immortal horses used to pull poseidon's carriage, so thought it apt with her breeding :).

I do like Skylla in our ice set, not the best picture mind!

Liking that Ice set on her very much. I have an Ice set for Samuel plus a matching 'bling' brow band. Must dress him up in it a post a pic over the weekend :)

Those evil people from Horse Health have just sent an e-mail with offers on Acavello gels. I really can't buy anything more until next payday :(

Topaz in the taupe, skylla in the ice. That's my vote! I've got teal and can't wait to try it on. Can't gauge what the turquoise looks like in real life, and if it has any boots to match, but think it would be too similar to the teal anyway. Plus having only gotten into matchy lately I have 5 sets already, only 2 have been on a horse. And I've ordered another set!

The turquoise is lighter and slightly greener than the teal. I have both and there's a definite difference. Might use my turquoise for the SJ section of the Combined Training I'm doing tomorrow, or maybe the blueberry, or perhaps the peacock......so many choices LOL

Sadly not seen any boots to match the turquoise but they do bandages ;)

Well DF what did you go for? Any pics?

Gingerface is now back in work (hurrah) and has so far sported her plum and peacock sets. Next adventure will be the teal :) am currently really resisting getting the burnt copper, think it will look lovely on GF Jr as she is bay :)

In the end I went for burgundy as I have some burgundy woof boots - sadly, no pics, there wasn't a photographer there and my friend had to leave early to get one of her passengers home in time for a family lunch :(

I must set up some modelling shots with Sam on the next day we have when it's not raining or cold.

Ooo curve ball with the burgandy!

I know. I was so going with the Turquoise until I realised I needed brushing boots all round and didn't have a set of four that would work with the Turquoise. I usually just put fronts on Sam but he hit the back rail of an oxer really hard a couple of weeks ago when he decided to take a stride out and I think he felt it a bit too much and lost his confidence slightly so I thought I'd protect his back legs yesterday just in case.

Anyone go for the matching fly veils?
Very tempted with turquoise and benetton blue ones but don't think I can justify the price ;)

I have got the Denim to go with my Denim Saddle cloth and bandages. I THINK I might have the Eskadron Ice too, I know I've got the dressage pad and bandages, can't remember if I went for the fly veil or not!

I can actually justify fly veils as Samuel does shake his head a bit when it's very bright sunshine or, of course the horseflies are about (we have a dreadful horsefly problem around the area where I keep him).

You lot are very naughty. I have long been very much in the brown numnah to match the saddle only camp and you're making me question my faith :(

Although I never put bandages (or even boots) on mine unless I'm jumping so matchy matchy would just be brightly coloured numnah instead. I love the peacock green.

Come to the matchy side my pretty......:D

I haven't got any lemeuix ears yet but will be getting the Peacock and Teal. This is because my little boy has sweetitch and even gets inside his ears nipped so its to protect them :)

I have some eskadron ears which I love :)

Spangle browband too :D I have a lovely gold one but would love a blue one to match the teal/peacock and a purple one too. I have a lovely pink one that my SS got me that my baby boy is having.......probably should get him the fuscia to match yes? :wink3:

I've contained myself with a browband per horse :eek: Doodles is a goldy type colour, Topazs purple with pearls and Skyllas is just clear/silver.

Would like some more coloured ones though :D.

Browbands, another weakness of mine LOL

I have a lovely sparkly aqua one which goes with all my teal and turquoisey stuff. A sparkly black rhinestone one and the gorgeous thin clear crystal one that came with my beautiful rolled leather Shockemohle bridle OH bought me for my birthday last year. Oh and one with a discreet row of multi coloured stones for when we're feeling like some extra colour. We also have a caldene browband that had sort of a black and slivery square design on it that really looks smart.

Cough, would you mind posting pics and where you got them? I confess, I only have one slightly tatty clear browband. Shocking huh.

I will take some pics tomorrow as I get off work early :)

The Caldene one and the multi coloured one I got from Amazon. The other two were from a local tack shop last year. Pretty certain I haven't got any pics already that show any of them in much detail

Oh, I found this...Caldene browband
