Hermes

I read a funny quote on Twitter today...
"Dear fashion world, 
Please stop taking all our stuff.
Sincerely,
Equestrians"

I had to laugh.  It's so funny and so true.  I know nothing about horses, I've ridden twice in my life and yet I LOVE riding boots!  I beg, who doesn't look adorable in equestrian gear?  

Now, on the other hand it's important to remember some of the largest fashion houses started out as leather shops.  Hermes, the perfect example.  Thierry Hermes started a harness workshop in Paris in 1837.  In 1880 when his son took over they introduced saddlery.  Hermes is one of the most sought after designers today, and they started with equestrian gear. 

So I say we share and share alike!
