High Style and Fashion


I spent way too much time at the Horsemanship clinic analyzing fashions.  I just couldn't help it.  I was watching these people for up to 8 hours every day.  I couldn't spend the whole time just watching their horses.  So, I am now an expert on "what to wear" if you ever go to a Buck Brannaman clinic.  
First of all, the hat is critical.  You cannot wear a ball cap, it has to be a cowboy hat, and a flat topped one would be best.
I fell head over heals with Reata Brannaman's hat.  I know 90% of all clinic watchers do too, since they sell the hats and probably make lots of money doing it.


I talked about her hat all the time, which drove the twins crazy, but I had to get all the details.  So here they are:  flat topped, pointed down at the top, bunkhouse roll on the back, dark brown cloth around the edge, brown leather band, and a silver concho.  I want one.  



So then I had to analyze all the other cute hats too.  Sarah's is darling, but I think I want a bigger brim.



This is Janice.  She is a very good roper.  (better than her husband) and she has a very nice hat.  But no roll on the back.  I think I want the roll.



Look at the darling chin strap!  And I'm crazy about this scarf... "wild rag" to use the right lingo, I guess.



So, when we have our ranch and you come to visit, you'll know what to wear!
