More than most wil spend. Though that money pays for it's self, I spent more than most of the cheap saddles posted here on a breast collar and headstall that have rhinestones in them,....but I can get them replaced for free if they fallout by the sellar.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813777829951446721.post-83892586974637929032010-08-24T14:10:41.921-07:002010-08-24T14:10:41.921-07:00Noooo I did NOT insult you - actually I was on the...Noooo I did NOT insult you - actually I was on the same page with you concerning the "badass" component of "good tacky," because "badass" is a compliment. ;-)<br /><br />I've kind of come to terms with the shiny stuff, when it's done right. Of course, in the hunt seat/dressage world, I'm still a big fan of "less is more." <br /><br />Yeah, not only is it a Tom Thumb, but it's not sitting right.... ugh.....cattypexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17589672286463092432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813777829951446721.post-23734962609887664372010-08-24T13:15:01.788-07:002010-08-24T13:15:01.788-07:00Cattypex - I have a feeling you just insulted me -...Cattypex - I have a feeling you just insulted me -.- though I don't really care.<br /> I was juding the headstall as everyone should be, as my personally perferance is that I hate tom thumb bits and think they are the worst bit anyone could ever use.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813777829951446721.post-20597795008397063772010-08-24T11:22:15.411-07:002010-08-24T11:22:15.411-07:00If it was like half as wide, with, like cattypex s...If it was like half as wide, with, like cattypex said, a nice bit and curb, I'd actually like it... with a nice light oil saddle and a baby-blue pad, it would look super cute... this horse looks like blue is a good color. But it's so.... huge.... I would cut it in half and use half the rhinestones... I even think the belt buckle style is cute... just.. smaller, please and perhaps without the rhinestones on the buckle. I just wonder what happens when the stones all fall out, and they always do when they are stuck on metal like that!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13919593643799649732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813777829951446721.post-40237927335771857552010-08-24T05:30:04.362-07:002010-08-24T05:30:04.362-07:00xsecertsx.... as someone who counted Madonna and C...xsecertsx.... as someone who counted Madonna and Cyndi Lauper as fashion muses in 1986, and who dressed like an unholy combination of the vampire Lestat, Eddie Vedder, and the St. Pauli girl all through the early to mid 1990s, I think I've developed a pretty good TackyMeter....<br /><br />That is to say, there's GOOD tacky, which usually has a Badass component, and then there's BAD tacky, which usually involves a) CHEAP CRAP that will fall apart; b) impractical design; and c) unflattering, improper fit. <br /><br />This bridle fits all 3 criteria, and look how low the bit is riding in the horse's mouth! <br /><br />Also....If you're gonna do a blingtastic headstall, you'd better dress it up with a matching curb strap and a pretty-shanked bit.cattypexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17589672286463092432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1813777829951446721.post-7234551912259068302010-08-23T19:42:11.839-07:002010-08-23T19:42:11.839-07:00yep thats exactly what it looks like. it's bec...yep thats exactly what it looks like. it's becoming a new fad, buying $100 belts and making them into breast collars and headstalls.<br /><br />personally i like them, i've seen some really cool ones.
