Fair Lady Aside: The Road Less Traveled
http://fair-lady-aside.blogspot.com/2011/01/road-less-traveled.html
One modern rider's journey into the elegant riding art of the past. Friday, January 14, 2011. The Road Less Traveled. I would prefer to write of more side saddle experiences, but for the moment, I have to accept the fact that my horse is not suited for it, not because she isn't game, but rather because of her incredibly steep hip tilt. So, what's a medieval chic to do? So, I will begin posting project pictures shortly. Gaston Phebus' Book of the Hunt. The Art of Medieval Hunting: The Hound and the Hawk.

One modern rider's journey into the elegant riding art of the past. Monday, February 9, 2009. My "Woodvylle" hennin for the Fair Lady Aside. This hennin was hand crafted by Kat of Kat's Hats.

The photo doesn't really do it justice, but it just another step closer to the proprely attired lady. When someone is in you...

One modern rider's journey into the elegant riding art of the past. Thursday, December 3, 2009. A new hennin for the holidays. Part of the ensemble of a well dressed lady is her "hat".

One modern rider's journey into the elegant riding art of the past. Thursday, January 15, 2009. Marie de Bourgogne: La Chevauchée fatale. The accounts vary as to what caused Marie's horse to shy and buck violently - a ditch or a tree across the path - what is known is that Marie fell to the ground and she was trampled. Marie was taken to a nearby house. She was tended to by physicians, but the injuries that she had sustained would painfully and eventually end her life. A woman we knew where we stabled ou...
