Fashion Doesn’t Disappoint at the Sunday Jogs

by Courtney Young and Shannon Crocker

The Sunday jogs did not disappoint with personal style, clever touches, and the incredible morning light setting off the horses and their riders.  First, a shout out to the ground judges who set the bar high with their own looks.

From left to right: Red pants are a risk but this judge pulls together rugged preppy as only a JCrew stylist could.  The suit and hat on the second judge are tasteful and classic England which always works. Finally, the green overcoat with the natty tie play off the baseball cap for a happy meeting of England and America. But our favorite riders lived up to the standard with some outfits of their own.

Hawley Bennett-Awad:

This was one of our favorites for today’s jogs.  She cleverly highlights her Canadian heritage with the stunning red coat set off by her white pants.  Her sleek, blonde ponytail adds the finishing touch to this winning look.

Captain Geoff Curren:

Yes we profiled him on Wednesday and he’s in the same uniform.  But he still looks good and now we want to draw your eye to the attention to detail in his uniform with the leather strap going across his chest. Would that slow us down getting him out of that uniform?

Ian Roberts:

You can’t see it in the picture but we were skeptical of the jeans for a formal occasion like the jogs at Rolex.  But given the dark rinse and the stylish country gentleman look he gets two thumbs up.

Becky Holder:

This picture doesn’t do the outfit justice, but the feminine ruffles on the belted jacket tie this outfit together for a sophisticated silhouette next to her gorgeous grey.

Will Faudree:

Jonathan Paget:

Normally a black suit on a colorful spring day could be gloomy.  But he includes spring pastels with his shirt and tie and the suit perfectly compliments his gorgeous dark bay. Definitely headed to a wedding not a funeral with this one.

Allison Springer:

Yeah baby.  Allison pulls off Charlie’s Angels better than anyone.

Holly Hudspeth:

Holly cuts a gorgeous figure in this tailored, tan suit. She simultaneously looks great while complimenting her attractive horse.

Buck Davidson:

We know this is hotly contested but we stand behind Buck and his Sunday style.  The suit and tie alone might not have been noteworthy but the addition of the Davidson colors of red and yellow in his socks was a fashion risk we want to reward.  His slightly shorter pant legs (which showcases those socks) is a fashion trend you may have seen recently in Vogue or Nylon. Something for  The Sartorialist, perhaps?
