Hi everyone!! I am living for this #ROOTD! You know that a few months ago I discovered my favorite thing to wear on weekends is a good pair of riding leggings so you must imagine how happy I feel for having a new pair in my collection. And to be super honest, I’m even more exited for finally owning a pastel base layer!
Both the items are from HorseGloss and there are a few things I would like to tell you about them.
The leggings are mid/high waisted and are probably the stretchiest I own which, in my opinion, makes them more comfortable but also causes them to lose a tiny, tiny bit on the support they offer. Nevertheless, I think they gave me a nice figure.
I also love their color, I am not sure if the photos make them enough justice though. They have an adorable chocolate brown color – a great compromise between the usual super dark brown and the overrated beige!
They have a full silicone seat – love the pattern – and I would say they are grippy but won’t make me feel like I’m stuck to the saddle.
However, the absolute best feature of these riding leggings has to be the side pocket that is big enough for my phone and because it is a quite deep side pocket, I never feel the phone on my hip bone (which happens all the time with breeches and hurts me a lot! LOL).
As for the base layer, all that comes to my mind is “it’s sooo pretty”! 😂 I’ve spent months visiting the brand’s website and trying to decide which color I should pick because I loved most of them. After a couple of months, I still couldn’t decide between pink and and blue but buying a pink jacket for my birthday made this decision easier! Also, this blue looks good with 99.9% of my breeches.
Besides the color, I think the zippers are what makes it look so different. I know this is the weirdest thing to say but this shirt would be super boring if it didn’t have them!
Lastly and most importantly, I am very impressed with this shirt’s fabric because it is very breathable, stretchy and I love the way it “hugs” my body but be careful, the fabric is delicate!
In my opinion, both of the items are very well priced for their quality.
Have a nice Sunday!
See you on the next post,

I have been eyeing a few things on their web page in the rosegold collection. But, I’m worried about sizing and having to do returns (I’m in CA). Did you find the sizing to run true to the chart they provide? I love the shirt you have one. The zippers are super cute. Thanks.
