Chasing a Fox in a Little Black Dress
Foxhunting Massachusetts
The last thing you didn’t need to know was why do we leave the bottom button of our vest undone. This is another one of those things that everyone will have a different opinion about, but this is what we have always been taught.
If you are a lady, the spur strap bar on your spur should be round, 
and if you’re a man yours should be rectangle/square.
. 
We know it’s splitting hairs, but we just love these fun facts, it’s all in the details!
Well, it may look boring, but this beautiful Benjamin Moore Chantily Lace color is so soothing! Now on to the fun part fabrics and trims! (Don`t mind the feathers on the floor. I had just changed the sheets and fluffed the feather beds).
Now, on to picking colors. Because this is our "winter" bedroom. (We`re out on the sleeping porch all summer. ) I`m thinking cozy vibes!

Renovating the master suite. Let`s start with the Master bedroom and front upstairs hallway.
First things first, these painted floors have got to go!

Lots of decorating going on at my house. The powder room is officially done, and I`m moving on to the master suite.
Would you like to come along on my decorating journey?

Happy Independence Day!
As we get older, we choose new ways to keep being horsey. Chasing a Fox has added a new pony to the stable.🤣
No filter.
Sorry, not sorry!
Chasing a Fox has been busy driving.

Thanks, Sissi! It looks like someone is ready for a Corinthian class in the “ladies spur” photo! Are those classes a thing anymore? All those beautiful hunt appointments…
Happy Snow Day!

Ha, ha, that’s my leg getting ready to go into an appointments class. They do still have Corinthian classes at some shows, but not ours….We LOVE all the appointments!
Will you participate in the Cheshire Point to Point again this year? I love your blog.
Hi, Ellie!
Thank you for following the Blog, it’s an awful lot of fun!! We wouldn’t miss Cheshire, who knows what will happen in the Hannum bathroom this year! As a matter of fact Chasing a Fox and Middy n’ Me are sponsoring the Sidesaddle race, and the best turned out prize again this year. I hear there is a tailgate contest at the race; I wish I could fit all my crap in my suitcases I love to rock a tailgate!!!!! Anyway, please find me at the race and say “Hello”! The countdown is on!!

Thanks so much for this tidbit but it begs another question – it is my understanding that for foxhunting, hammerhead hunt spurs are the correct choice, not POW etc. However, have never seen hammerheads with a round end as you advise is correct for ladies. Any insights? Love all the details – everything has a reason.
Great question Susan! We did a little digging and it’s our understanding that it’s hammerhead for the gents and Prince of Wales for the ladies! We did find a ladies hammerhead made by Metalab, but we don’t like the big logo on the side. Have a great weekend!
Hi there, You’ve done a great job. I will definitely digg
it and personally suggest to my friends. I am sure they will be benefited from this site.
