Don't worry, we will be back soon!Hello loves!
I hope everyone is ready for SUMMER 2015! I cannot believe it's already June. If you have been following my IG and FB posts you know I have been preoccupied with several different things going on in my personal life. I have not been able to give the business 100%, as I would like. So I am taking a brief hiatus to refocus, catch up on orders, and finish designing new products! Time to focus on my creativity again! If you have already placed an order, DO NOT WORRY! I am currently working on catching up on all current orders -- they're printing as I type, helloooo multi tasking queen! If you have any questions on your order please email me directly at [email protected]. We will be updating and purging our email accounts very shortly. Thank you all for your support, patience and understanding! I can't wait to reset and refocus. CB will be back and better than before! XOXO, Brittany - THE COUNTRY BARBIE

What are your mud season go to's? You know that period of time in between winter and spring? Yeah, that's mud season. When all the snow starts melting for the northern belles or the rain starts for my southern girls, and we are left with a muddy mess. THAT is mud season. Don't get me wrong, mud season is a blast! (Unless of course you have a palomino named Dakota who loves to roll....) But with the mucky mess, a girl NEEDS to be prepared. Rain boots - necessity! You can find my black and pink rain boots from Wally World in my trunk AT ALL TIMES. The mud cleans off of them easily and they are high enough that if and when I sink in the mud I don't have a new gel insole inside. Make sure they fit decently though! I've had a boot get sucked into the mud and was no longer on my foot... Anyone else have that problem? My hooded rain jacket is also another must have. Do I really need to explain why? And of course my look pretty play dirty attire! Let's be honest, there is no way to not be dirty this time of year, so we can do ourselves a favor and still look pretty!
Do you have any must haves for this time of year? Let me know! XOXO, CB but are you even from the country?
I love weddings. I have always loved weddings. If I could have, I would have been a wedding planner. I love the country. I love my horse and being at the barn. So naturally, I want a 'country' wedding... kind of. This explosion of country themed weddings is great for inspiration but it seems like EVERYONE and their brother is having a country wedding. Why?! From what I know, 99% of the people have a country wedding have never even stepped foot inside a barn. So what is their draw to have a country wedding? Could it be they finally understand what we all know and love about barns, farms and the great outdoors? Someone please explain! Don't get me wrong, I love mason jars, and cowboy boots and hay bales at the reception. And all these ideas on Pinterest are making my head spin! But I have to also admit, I feel like it will make my day less special. I always like to be different, and not do what everyone else is doing. Oh well! When you can't beat them join them! XOXO, CB Okay ladies, I know the issue of pink camo always brings mixed emotions to the surface so I want to hear what you have to say. Personally, I love pink -- they don't call me the Country Barbie for nothing (blue is still my favorite color though).
The general belief is that deer only see blue and yellow, so that's why those blaze orange safety vests don't throw your hunt. Personally, I think someone should start making them in hot pink! You also have to be conscience that your clothing has not been enhanced with UV brighteners (which deer can see - test your clothing with a black light). But other than that, more power to the ladies who hunt in pink camo. I mean we did start Country Barbie clothing for country girls who like to wear pink... So with all that being said, why do some people HATE pink camo so much? I've never understood it. If pink just isn't your thing, then ok, but no need to be hostile. We like pink. We like pink camo. We do not hunt flamingos. XOXO, CB We are giving you 20% off any purchase of $30 or more in our Shirt Shop from now until 11/11/14! Don't wait until the last minute to do your holiday shopping.

As much as we all love summer, Country Barbies know that the end of the summer means the beginning of HUNTING SEASON! I know y'all love my pink bow case so I figured I'd give you a peak at the rest of my archery set up. My new bow was a gift from my dad a few years back, and I just recently pulled it out again to start practicing. I was hunting for a new bow for a while and ended up deciding on the Mission Craze in solid black so I could deck it out with decals and pink accessories. I love it because it is compact, lightweight and has a wide range of adjustments for draw weight and length -- making it perfect for beginners! It also comes in several different colors, check them out HERE.
Bow: Mission Craze Site: H250 Predator in Pink Rest: QAD Ultra Rest HDX Stabilizer: Trophy Ridge Static Stabilizer Release: Tru-Fire Edge Quiver: Bohning Bow Sling: No specific brand Bow Case: My bow case was not bought, we painted a plain one and added our Look Pretty Play Dirty decal. I am convinced I have a hyper sensitive nose. - I can get a headache almost instantly if I don't like the scent of a perfume or cologne, so you can imagine how picky I am with candles. If you follow our Facebook Blog you know that I swear by and am obsessed with Urban Cowgirl candles! Their Teakwood and Chai Latte scents have so far been my favorite, and I just happened to get another goodie box from Alexis with new scents to try! Urban Cowgirl Trading Company has the best assortment of candles in a wide range of scents for everyone. Whether you like floral, fruity, clean or seasonal scented candles you will find something you absolutely love!
http://www.urbancowgirltc.com/ XOXO, CB What do you buy a girl obsessed with her horse? If you have an equestrian in your family, you know how passionate we can be about our horses. We obsess over every detail of our horse - chances are they get better hair products, better food and more expensive shoes than their cowgirl counterpart. If you have ever wondered what to get your cowgirl, these cute clay creations are the perfect gift for birthdays, holidays or just a special surprise. Sabrina from Clay Ranch Cuties makes the cutest sculptures of a wide range of animals. Surprise your cowgirl with a custom made replica of her four legged friend, or have Sabrina dream up one of her themed ponies! Either way your equestrian is bound to love it! Or if you're like me just start collecting them for yourself! Don't forget to enter for your chance to win one of THREE of these cute ponies!

About the AuthorHey ya’ll, my name is Brittany. I am from a small town in upstate New York, yes NY, no it’s not all city here. I am 29 and grew up in Westchester County, that’s where I get my ‘accent’ from (it’s about an hour north of the Big Apple). I started this page to share the idea that you don’t have to fit a certain mold or standard someone else has. I like pink and sparkles, I surround myself with beautiful things, but I know how to get down and dirty with the best of them. Categories |
