Have you ever bought a horsey article of clothing....

[Lollie]

....only later to say......"OMG what was I thinking"

For me it has to be a purple pair of jodphers I bought a few years ago:eek::D

[Noodle88]

There is nothing wrong with purple jodphurs!! :) I love mine lol.

[Hippyhorse]

I too have some fab purple jods too, love em! But I do have a body warmer that only gets worn if everything else is filthy or wet!

[HJ]

Yep, some pale and navy checked jods, with plain blue knee pads!!

Bought them 2 months ago and never worn them, who wants to buy them :D

What size are they?

I bought a long waxed coat years ago for riding in the rain, wore it a couple of times and hated it as it wasn't waterproof and it smelled bad. It sat in the shed for a few years getting mouldy and moth eaten then I binned it.

There around a 12/14, not sure what waist that is but they are to big for me

[Matchbox Milo]

Same!!
It's not a subtle purple either, it is down right lairy and horrible.
I've never worn them out, have put them on a few times only to back out before i go out the door!

[palmerlover52]

I have a rainbow coloured top/hat silk combo. It's pretty tragic, I look like a shiny carebear.

[Starla_LaLa]

Bright pink leg warmers :D
...i am infact wearing them today, and will continue to wear them for many days to come. But it doesnt stop me from thinking 'oh dear WHAT is the matter with me...'

[x-Marmite-x]

Pink jods and purple chaps . . . then wearing them both together :p. I look very odd but I still do it now :p. I'm quite boring and toned down in my non-horsey clothes so I just go a little beserk in my yard stuff :D. I also have a multicoloured woolly hat that tends to accompany me up to the yard most days :o. Oh and also a rather silly t-shirt that is white (why did I pick white for a horsey shirt?!) with upside-down pink writing on it reading 'If you can read this - put me back on my horse!' which I suppose is pretty terrible too but I'll admit I still wear that as well :p:D. I have some truely outrageous outfits that I wear up to the yard (green hotpants, neon pink leggings and walking boots spring to mind :o - too hot for jods, too cool for shorts ;)) but as I look a complete mess anyway I might as well make a statement doing it :p!

[Bluebottle]

Cheap Jod boots, bought them online too, really bad idea!!
Bough a pair of purple/black jod boots in tha last Robinsons sale, they didn't fit me well (I have narrow feet!) but they fit my wife.
Some might say "what was I thinking" when they see my purple/black half-chaps but I have no taste so I like them :p
I think they look good with black boots and jods! :D

[Harlequin32]

Well i didnt actually buy it but as my o/h keeps pointing out ages ago someone gave me the worlds cosiest jumper which i reserved for yard use only- bright orange wool with a darker orange stripe! He takes the p*** even to this day:rolleyes:

[HJ]

I have an ex bf's jumper that his ex gf brought for him.

I hate it but its soooo warm :D

[Bubbles1989]

my pink jods! They looked nice in the picture but i refuse to wear them after seeing pictures of me in them, they do not compliment thighs at all!!!

oooh i also wear green shorts (from asda!) and leggings if its too hot for jods!

[Daffy Dilly]

I spent £50-60 on a pair of Mark Todd breeches, only to realise upon trying to ride, that there was no give in the seat what so ever!

I'm pretty good with clothes. ;)

[Howengold]

a pink Harry Hall polo shirt, it was made of a yukky material and I don't know why I picked it up :rolleyes:

[Trewsers]

I have some Mark Todd jods, they are black and co-op blue / green shade (older members may remember the old co-operative signage from way back in the 80's!). They were £45 and I have worn them a couple of times - in the tack shop they looked lovely, just when I got them home I realised they were "loud" to say the least!!!!! Anyway, I guess being at home wearing them is ok, I don't know if I'd dare nip to Tesco in them tho!!!!!!!

I also bought some CANARY jods from Robinsons - yes, folk,s CANARy!!! eeeeeeeek. They are hideous on me - they show every lump and bump. They are made of this slinky, stretchy stuff - oh dear oh dear. And, I bought a size too big thinking they'd be ok! I figured if they weren't too figure hugging they'd be nice.......hahahahahahahhahaa, even OH who is a saint where my clothes are concerned hasn't been able to say anything nice about them....................

[xloopylozzax]

I actually quite like the sound of that!

[*GroovyGallop*]

Some black jods which are a size 12, when im a size 6. :confused:

[*IcyRider*]

Oh God, I love those Robinson's boots but they didn't have my size in the sale this time:mad:

I have purple jods-love 'em!

My regret buy are my Ariat trainers (see sig:() and my Rydals-just too clunky to ride in. May sell those, too.:(

[HJ]

I just brought a Lilac Joules Shirt of Ebay for £7.00, I hate Lilac but Im dying it grey ;)
