I have to admit, it didn’t really occur to me until I wrote yesterday’s post that doing a three day means that there are jog-ups. And jog-ups mean that there are jog outfits. We’ll ignore the fact that they say casual attire permitted and plan spiffy jog outfits anyway. Because this is my Rolex, and no one can make me jog up in barn attire at my Rolex.
Looking back through other N3DE’s, everyone’s jog-up attire seems to fall somewhere between “this is what I slept in” and “I was outfitted by the british monarchy”. Fist bumps to those who see this occasion the same way I do. If I’m braiding my horse, I’m not walking out looking like a hobo. That’s all I’m saying. Plus pictures. Everyone knows the pictures are the most important part. And everyone also knows that if you look supafly, you look more competent. I would love to fool people into thinking I’m competent, even if only for a few minutes.
Although eventers aren’t really known for being fashion mavens, the jogs always seem to be a whole ‘nother world entirely. Everyone seems to have a style that they prefer, ranging from
sleek and professional
to conservative
to dressy 
to BRAVE (all white AND heels!)
to suicidal
to a pop of color
to badass
to a bold print
to avant garde
to looking like you’re definitely sponsored by Dubarry
to channeling Sharon White because you effin LOVE orange
to a human kite
Wait… nix that last one. Don’t do that.
Obviously there is a wide range of styles, from dresses to pants, plain to colorful, boots to heels, bold to conservative. I know what I like, but what’s your preference? This is the fun part.
As for me, rest assured that navy and yellow will be involved. There will be no dresses and no heels. And no, I am not afraid of yellow pants. Or yellow blazers.

I already think that those two example outfits are totes perfect. I’d say you could totally rock either the yellow blazer or the yellow pants, but maybe not both 😉 (more power to you if you can though!) I think any one who goes with heels for a jog is nuts and asking for a rolled ankle, because that is definitely what would happen to me. It’s probably the equestrian in me, but I love the tall boots over a nice pair of dark pants! No white!

Tall boots and the blazer in my opinion. Cause you always need more boots, right?

Love love love the blazer! Plus the boots protect your toes just a little bit more. I don’t know about Henry but my guy sometimes forgets he has feet and steps on me. The last thing you probably want are broken toes on your Rolex! Boo!
Blazer and boots all the way!

The N3D at Rebecca is my goal for next year and I already have job outfits picked out. That is until I find something new and exciting between now and then. One piece of advise we were given this year (I groomed for a T3D competitor at Rebecca) was to have your legs contrast your horses legs.

LOVE both of the outfits you’ve picked out, I think they would look most excellent in pictures. I also think it’s cool that you’re repping your eventing colors in your jog outfit….I feel like most riders don’t do that 😉 you fashionista, you!

Holy Jeebus, how does anyone RUN IN HEELS?!??! That looks like a fantastic way to sprain an ankle. Or have your foot crushed. Or have a crushed foot AND a sprained ankle. Also, who wears a skirt or dress to the barn? I can barely wear a dress to a wedding. My brain just cannot even process the idea of wearing one near a horse.

I have no idea how they do that. I’d fall down, break my ankle, and expose all my ladybits to the world in the process.

The hell? Whoever thought it was a great idea to run in heels (especially THOSE heels) needs to break one while running. So I can laugh. And feel kind of bad. Well, maybe not. Sorrynotsorry.
P.S. You need some splash of unicorn on your outfit.
