Retail therapy is commonly thought of as a short-lived way to improve the mood of the buyer, quickly followed by a comedown or withdrawal period. But that high feels so good, and as you walk around the show grounds it’s easy to get caught up in the hottest new trends and a want to drown your sorrow of that added stride in the nearest tack trailer.
But then comes the downward spiral of looking disappointingly at your receipt. The realization of just how many horse shoes or vet bills your shopping spree could have covered slowly darkening your mood beyond what any paisley lined show collar can brighten.
Yes, we operate in a very expensive equestrian world. Say you left your entire garment bag laying on your couch at home, realizing it only as you got to the show hours away, and no fellow competitors had anything in your size. **Usually** you’d be looking at well over $1000 to completely outfit yourself (boots, socks, breeches, shirt, jacket).
But luckily we have the #AlwaysAmazing innovators at Ovation have a solution to all your retail therapy needs – without the sadness of the receipt, or the withdrawal period since you can afford to just keep shopping. A whole outfit for about half of what it would cost, and still with the latest fashion and style – because let’s be honest, we aren’t indulging our retail fantasies to NOT be up on the latest trends.
