Life on the Ranch
I often see myself as a cowgirl living in the city, eventhough I did not grow up on a ranch. Early memories of childhood take me down on the path of a narrow country road in Leogane, Haiti, riding my horse with my mother and her sister, Jeanine by our sides. I look to the day when I get to have my own private ranch (perhaps in Aspen? Why not?
It’s good to dream big. Or to take a more realistically approach and dwell in Connecticut where I’ll get to ride most days dressed in these chic outfits and accessories from Ariat.

It’s good to see that after all these years, the company is still dominant in the Englishmarket and remains a real force in the Western market too. I like most of their Fall 2012 collection – from their comfortable and sleek leathers, to their elegant, and beautiful breaches. What’s different about this brand is that they have so many years of heritage, authenticity and craftsmanship. They’re utilising what they know of the English and Western market and infusing it into a lifestyle collection that is both fashionable and comfortable yet still maintains their Equestrian heritage.
