I like CCJ's colours, dark purple and wedgewood blue.
I tried to persuade her to have mint green and royal blue as I reckon that would stand out from a distance too, we like in your face colours not discreet navy or black!
ps can't change hers now we had the horsebox sprayed to match.....

mine are Red and Green, because back in the day when mum and dad had racehorses, that's what the family colours were, so i didn't get much fo a say in the matter!!
up untill this coming season, i had a green hat with red stars on it.. for this season, i've just ordered (not come yet) a green with red quarters and white stars hat

will post a pic when it turns up

I used to have black and white colours - black hat cover, and black and white striped top which to be fair was a little bit boring!!

I changed them for a couple of events to bright blue (which looked really nice), but I fell off each time, so went back to the black and white ones as they were my lucky ones - I won points wearing those ones!!! I also got so superstitious that I wore then all the time for XC, so by the time I packed up eventing, they were falling apart (although I have still got them 10 years on!). Please tell me I'm not the only one who is this superstitious...???!!!

Lol - we used to call my sister Lucinda as at the age of 10 she would come out the house in matching colours to go for a ride on her 12.2hh hairy pony! I think the reason Jenny chose pink was because of Lucinda Fredricks! I finialised on yellow after seeing Pippa Funnell at Blair with Bits n' Pieces but I much prefer my bright yellow! No one can miss me as I gallop past them.
 
Usually whatever I cobble together the night before...not very smart but I inherited a black rugby shirt with a big pink star and matching hat silk with new ponio. Still to investigate whether they fit.

I have boring navy but I never wear an xc jumper, just my BP over my white shirt so technically I suppose its white and navy.

If I wanted XC colours I would want brown and baby pink or baby pink and a kharki green

You would!!
 
I have navy and cambridge but have only been out in them once (and fell!). So tempted to go back to my old colours of green and burgundy that always kept me 'safe'.

When I change all my tack to brown, I may change to baby blue and brown.

Ohh baby pink and brown sound lovely!
 
Mum used to have plain yellow for when she did endurance riding and it was nice and bright though it slightly clashed with a chesnut horse!
I really like my colours, had them since I was about 10 and not many people have them but I do look like a bumble bee!
