so i have never ridden a horse in my life. i’m a girl and i’m 19. my new boyfriend and i are going horse back riding at the end of may and also to the stampede for a weekend… what would be appropriate attire to wear and what would be appropriate things to bring? my boyfriend is a cowboy and i really like him so i don’t want to make a fool out of myself 
thanks for the help
Boots, and not the fancy kind. Hiking boots work well and of course cowboy boots are made for this. If you have none and can’t borrow any, sneakers work, but make sure that they will stay on as you will use your feet to help guide the horse. Jeans are a must, and again, a pair you didn’t spend alot of money on, as they will stretch and it could get dirty. As for the tops, I usually wear a nice tank top that will not leave a funky tan, and use sunscreen liberally- even if it doesn’t seem that hot. The best thing to wear on top is flannel. A button up shirt is good. This will be light and airy, but try not to take it off as hot as it may be – sleeves are a must outdoors and any good cowboy would agree. A hat is good too, one that ties around the neck is best but not a must, especially if you don’t want to look dorky. I wear a fisherman’s hat because it’s more comfortable but I don’t know what a cowboy would say about that. Bring water, sunblock, bug repellent and maybe a snack for yourself. Don’t forget to bring your fun and have a blast!

definately wear jeans
or long pants becuase the saddle/horse will
rub your legs raw.
you also might wanna bring some bug spray because
horse flys hurt bad when they bite.
so bug spray or long sleeve shirts are good.

Wear jeans and some kind of shoe with a heal, hiking boots work really well. You can wear a T- shirt if it is warm outside but you don’t want to wear a tank top because you don’t want to be showing your shoulders (they will get sunburned). Just bring like a water bottle, remember you will be on a horse so you don’t have room to put stuff. Don’t bring a purse or cell phone because there will be no room to put those types of things, if you need to bring a cell phone leave it in the car.
