Autumn is just around the corner...

With the Autumn equinox just around the corner, I couldn't be any happier. It has been so hot in Southern California for quite some time and I know we're all ready for cooler weather. 

Have you seen our new items listed this past week? We have lots of new items that will get you ready for the the season change. 

The Elegant Vines jacket makes me think of the seasons changing. This jacket is perfect for riding classes and events. 

The bronze pearls in the Copper Sky jacket is what makes this one of my new Autumn favorites. They go so elegantly with the the sky blue and clear crystals. You'll not only look great in this jacket, you'll feel great. 

I love this look for showmanship! The Gold Bars jacket has the perfect amount of bling to start the season out right. Match any of these jackets with our new Perfect Fit EqueLux show pants. We now have them available in chocolate brown, charcoal grey and classic black. 

What do you look forward to most as we say goodbye to Summer?

My favorite applique designs... so far

For those of you that know my work you know that we use a lot of different appliques in our designs.  Here are a few of my favorite ones so far this year. 

French Blue Leopard

An instant favorite. This new show shirt was made just last week and I couldn't help but fall in love with the rich blue ombre shades mixed in with the leopard fabric. 

Envy Showmanship Jacket

 This is one of my favorites because of all the detail and sparkle. A lot of time was put into the application of all the crystals and embellishments. Is it just me or does this make you think of fancy mermaid bubbles. 

Living The Dream

The Living The Dream jacket will always be one of my favorites. I absolutely love dream catchers! All the color and sparkle are enough to make you feel magical. This jacket has just the right amount of bling and sass  to make you feel like a million bucks!

Feeling blue?

I don't mean the sad kind of blue I mean the cool blue like the ocean or the sky after a storm. That's the kind of blue that inspired these two new beautiful showmanship shirts.  

Electric Ocean

This back zip horsemanship shirt is tailored to be worn as a "tuck-in style" shirt. We’ve loaded the collar with Swarovski crystals and added a cascading mix of clear stones down the shoulders. You can almost smell the ocean breeze when you put this on. 

Fade Chic

This classically tailored tuck-in style horsemanship shirt has been created from the coolest print. You can pair it with black for a one-of-a-kind look. We have outlined the collar in black Ultrasuede and clear Swarovski crystals and filled it in with aquamarine and blue Swarovski crystals.

You can find both of these showmanship shirts available on our site.

Showmanship Do's & Don'ts

When picking out your showmanship outfit you need to follow these steps:

Get measured by a professional before ordering an outfit online. Sometimes when we try to measure ourselves the size ends up being inaccurate. You don’t want to order a showmanship suit with the wrong measurements and be stuck with something too big or too small with no time to alter.

Shop smart. I know there are a lot of companies that make showmanship clothing on the internet but that doesn’t mean that they should. Always check reviews, they can save you the heartache of ordering something that you might not ever see or be able to return.

Color Coordinate with your horse, you can’t be the only one that looks beautiful in the ring, make sure he/she has a matching saddle pad (don’t be too matchy!)

Be different! You don’t want to look like everyone else. Don’t be afraid to stand out and be noticed. 

At Lisa Nelle Show Clothing we have many options for showmanship suits that will have you turning heads in and out of the ring. 

Below is our latest suit for purchase. 

This rich, jade based jacket has been embellished in an elegant mix of gold applique, screen-printing, Swarovski Crystals, pearls and other high-end elements. This jacket comes with matching jade pants.

The perfectly symmetrical design creates a professional and flattering silhouette. The side view of this jacket is unbelievable in person. Incredibly slimming and sophisticated.

The fabric we use is unique to our company. We have this specific material manufactured in a mill a few miles away from our Los Angeles location. It’s the perfect fabric, it’s going to blow you away. It combines elements from several super high-end fabrics. It’s a medium/heavy weight with a unique structured stretch. It feels amazing on.

Quick & Easy Tips to Prepare Yourself for a Horseshow

For western competitions such as Western pleasure or Western horsemanship, always wear an outfit that makes you and your horse stand out. When your saddle coordinates with your outfit it makes for lovely display that the judges will take notice of.

For a local show, a button up western shirt, nice show pants, boots, and a belt may be very acceptable. But for more competitive shows, everyone will be wearing more elaborate garments such as the horsemanship clothing we sell on our website.

• If your budget will not allow you to make these purchases, as long as your outfit compliments yourself as well as your horse, then you have nothing to worry about.
• Dark colors on light horses, and lighter colors on dark horses tend to draw more attention to them. You want to attract the right attention during the competition.
• It's not recommended to wear an all-black outfit in the show ring. Most of your competition will also be wearing it and you will want to stand out among everyone else. A deep purple or midnight blue is a great alternative.
• If you are confident in your skills and the skills of your horse, try drawing a bit of extra attention with a brightly colored shirt
• You want to stand out from the rest of the competitors. 
• Always have your hair up, make sure to get all fly-aways before showing. 
• For more competitive shows, all hair should absolutely be under your helmet, or tight into a neat, tight bun in a hairnet at the back of your head, just barely below your hat or helmet.
• Lastly; Have fun! Your horse feeds off your energy and if you are stressed then he/she will be too. 

I hope these tips were helpful. We are always excited to hear feedback from our readers so leave us a comment if you enjoyed reading these tips. We would love to hear from you!

Do you ever get a song stuck in your head and it just inspires you to do something?....Well that's what inspired me to create these two lovely jackets. 

Our "Sweet Dreams" jacket will grant you unsurpassed style in the ring…and it is oh so flattering. This black based jacket has been hand embellished with a high end mix of Swarovski crystals, teal applique, screen printing and other high-end embellishments. We have used our signature base fabric. It’s comfortable, high end, washable and has a structured stretch that gives an incredibly flattering look.

The next dream inspired jacket is our "Living the Dream" jacket available for our plus sized clients Be the best dressed in any arena with this one-of-a-kind dream catcher design. A Sparkling Showstopper! We’ve started with our signature black base fabric…then screen-printed the most beautiful rainbow colored dream catcher design…then we covered this jacket in swirling clear Swarovski crystals….then we filled in the design with a sparkling, high end mix of Swarovski crystals, pearls and other elements. It’s comfortable, high end, washable and has a structured stretch that gives an incredibly flattering look. The best part about this jacket is the versatility; you can truly wear this jacket as a showmanship jacket or horsemanship shirt.
