Product Review-Ghodho Breeches

Throughout some time now, I have seen this company, Ghodho,  growing in popularity, with major junior and professional riders wearing their breeches.  I was immediately interested, but wanted to wait it out before I got a pair.  Just recently I finally decided I wanted to order some.  

My expectations were exceeded! When I went onto the website it was very helpful, stylish, and easily navigatable.  I went onto the online shopping section and started looking.  They have so many great colors! I couldn't decide!  I ordered them on a Tuesday, and they arrived on that Friday! It was very very fast shipping, and great customer service.  Of course, being myself I did a little screech when I got the package and immediately took them out of the bag.  When I reached in and grabbed them, they were so light, and the detailing on them was absolutely gorgeous! I put them on and they fit like a glove! They are perfect to my body type, being tall and skinny.  The material is so light, stretchy, and cool.  They will be perfect for summer riding!  Also, I absolutely love the zippers on the bottom of the legs.  They created the perfect fit to your leg.  Lastly, I wanted to note on how stylish these breeches are whether you are schooling, showing, and even out on the streets.    They create a unique and very fashion forward statement to your ROOTD or just any OOTD.  My only other comment is that I normally ride with thick belts, but the belt loops on these breeches are a little smaller, so you would have to ride in a little bit of a thinner belt. 

Ultimately, I am in LOVE with the breeches! I will totally go back for more! I want one in every color as these are a new favorite.  Go check out the Ghodho website to order, and order fast as i've heard they will be out for the summer very soon! 

**Be sure to read the size chart! I am normally a size 22 and the 24's fit me.  They run smaller then other brands.  This was clearly stated on the website before purchasing. **



The fit s is uncomparable.  

Notice the very stylish detailing and the beautiful knee patches! 

These breeches make your ROOTD stand out! I paired them here with my American Colored EIS Cool shirt, Michael Kors belt, My Barn Child Charms, and my Parlanti Miami Tall boots.

Welcome to @darkkbayy


Hey Everyone! I thought I would introduce myself a little bit.  My name is Ashley, I am a 15 year old rider from zone 2.  I show on the A circuit in the 3' eq for the most part.  My family and I own three horses. Carlus, a.k.a Carl, (pictured above) is my 6 year old 16.2hh, still growing, hannoverian we imported from Germany a little over 2 years ago.  Together we are growing as we are showing in our first year showing at the 3' height in the equitation.  So far, I can say it has been very successful and he has truly exceeded our expectations!  He is the sweetest horse you will ever meet and absolutely adores attention.  Together our goals are to do the Big Eq in the near future.   Sir Lancelot a.k.a. Lance is my 11 year old 13.3hh dartmoor/welsh pinto pony.  He was my very first pony and together we grew from mini stirrup to the large children's in 6 years.  This next year I want to show him in the Large greens!  Lance is sassy, but he really just tries to hide the fact that he loves attention and is so sweet.  Lastly, Corley's Gift a.k.a Ebony is our little black 15hh thoroughbred mare.  She is such a great little girl! We found where she can really shine in the ring in the short time we have had her.  She was recently injured so she is just getting back into work, but she was doing the schooling hunters before her injury.  Well thats all for my horses for now, but don't worry, you will see plenty of them in future posts! In the mean time, I will tell you a little more about myself. 

As I had said above I am a 15 year old student who loves my horses and the beauty of riding them!  If I'm not at school I am most likely at the barn or with horses somewhere.  I love horse management and activities relating to horse care horses.  Due to my love for this, I have decided I want to be an equine vet in the future.  Through pony club, as well as the hunter/jumper/equitation activities I do I practice alongside vets and vet interns.  I just love being able to help out horses, and teaching everyone about the health of the horses.  After all, without the horses, where would we be?  I also hold interests in writing and fashion.  Lastly, one more thing I want to mention is that I am a junior ambassador for the amazing company, My Barn Child.  My Barn Child, or MBC sells charms, earrings, bracelets, apparel, etc. for you and your horse to add some ooshiney to your rides!.  I have learnt amazing skills from this family, and I am so proud to be apart of the MBC team.  

Well, that's it for now! Stay tuned for more posts coming soon! I have so many awesome things to write about! However, feel free to contact me about any ideas for future posts! I would love to hear what YOU guys want! 

This is my first experience blogging so I apologize if there are imperfections still, I am trying to work everything out :)
