I have a lot of big dreams for things I would like this year to upgrade for me and my horse. So this is my Christmas list/wishlist of things that I want. But to be real, no sane person in their right mind will spend this kind of money on me for Christmas, so it will end up turning into more of a wishlist for the things I want to buy for myself throughout the year.

Ovation Tierra Monoflap Saddle
I can feel the security just looking at it |
This saddle is a huge goal for me and Charmer. The interchangeable gullet system is great for his ever-changing topline. And the fact that it's a monoflap with nice, large, external blocks are a huge bonus for me in the security department for those green baby horse jumps. Also if I can pull off getting this saddle, it will be the first slightly higher end saddle I will own, so very excited for that!

| Millbrook Leathers |
Okay I do not know if these leathers are just a complete hoax, but honestly I think they are the coolest things ever, so I need them, even if it is literally just to look and feel semi-cool.
 |
| Colored Compositi Wide Track Stirrups |
So I already have a pair of these in black, because my joints are all beat up and destroyed and I am crippled if I try to ride in anything else. But I have now found the colored ones, and I desperately need colored ones of these now. Haven't officially decided what color, but definitely going to need some more of these magical, non-crippling, fantastical stirrups in pretty colors.

| Dressage Sport Boots 2 (White) |
I don't know if you guys have noticed, but I happen to own the plainest bay of all the plain bays in the world. All of
zero white hairs on his entire body. So I need to get a bunch of pretty boots in colors, or in white to offset his sad plain-ness. And I want to upgrade my cheap dressage boots to the nicer brand this year, and actually get white this time!
 |
| Fancy Open Front Boots |
So I don't know if these are the "exact" ones that I want, but I really would love to get some nice, open front boots. Can't quite decide if I want white ones, or leather ones with fluff or what, but I do know, I would like them to be hook and stud closure (they just look so much fancier), and have a little more color or pop to them when I use them on my horse. Instead of just boring black boots that fade into his legs.
 |
| Magical Majyk Equipe Boots |
Okay so I've been wanting some real XC boots for FOREVER now. Well then Majyk Equipe came out with these fabulout things! Drool. Need. Again, I have exactly
zero concept of which color I would like to buy, but I am absolutely in love with these boots, especially after watching their strike plate video. Fantastically well made boots, and I will never complain about having more pretty colors for running XC.
 |
| Ariat Tall Boots |
This will be the year for real tall boots. I have had a few pairs in the past, but they have always been "special occasion" kind of boots. And now I am growing exceedingly tired of my paddock-boots-and-half-chaps thing, so I think this will finally be the year I put on my big girl pants, and buy myself some real boots.
 |
| Mountain Horse Winter Boots |
Okay and if we are growing up and getting some real people boots, I cannot forget to get some fancy winter boots for my spoiled little self. I have been freezing my toes off every single winter for the last decade, and I am now (hopefully) ready to get some nice winter boots so I can hopefully be a little less cold in our single digit temperatures.
 |
| Piper Breeches |
Last, but definitely not least, is buying lots and lots of Piper breeches from Smartpak this year. I have bought several different types and brands of breeches. And they are the hardest things in the whole world to find that fit "just right". I usually find that you are usually left with two options: the so-tight-you-can't-breathe-pants or I-swear-I-don't-have-man-parts-pants. Personally, I am not a huge fan of either of those options. And I had always admired Piper breeches from a distance, but this year I finally bought some. And when I put them on? The things fit like a glove and they are so comfortable, and bonus points for awesome color combos! So now, I have basically sworn off wearing any other breeches in the world, and this year, just need to accumulate all of the possible colors of Piper breeches.
Anything fun on your holiday wishlist? Hoping you all get some fun toys for the holidays and the rest of the year!
