As equestrians, we have a serious style advantage. Everyone just loves our look. It's inspired countless fashion campaigns and looks. It's a classic, never go out of style look. Seriously, look back 40 years ago and peo[...]

I actually hate getting my hair done, it takes too long and I nearly always don't like the results, but it is necessary. My hair starts to look pretty ratty and gross if I go longer than a year without a hai[...]
