Miss A Columnist

Rochelle Robinson grew up in the Pacific Northwest immersed in the performance, musical, and fine arts, as well as athletics – from skiing in the water to skiing in the sleet and snow, to cycling around the velodrome. While studying fine art and the musical genre of jazz at the University of Washington she put both her passion for and experience in the arts into helping to create the Washington State Academic Achievement Standards for the Arts by serving on both the Arts and Standards Revision committees. She later completed a Master of Arts in Teaching at The University of Puget Sound and Master of Arts in Liberal Arts at St. John's College Graduate Institute. As an aspiring artist, as well as an educator, she is still intrigued by the creative process and what ensues as a result. Currently, she is developing a poetry blog called A Writer's Space and has co-written both a children's picture book and pilot for a children's TV show. Rochelle also works as an elementary school librarian and advanced reading teacher for a small private school in the valley. She is in the midst of developing a new business named Watercolor Weddings by Rochelle and is developing a series of paintings and conceptual artworks, the first of which is currently on display at Henson Recording Studios in Hollywood. She hopes to inspire Miss A readers to explore, experience and get involved, as she sets out to bring a touch of the literary, fine and performing arts that are happening here in Los Angeles to our readers. If you have a Los Angeles charity or cultural event, restaurant, boutique, spa, or salon you would like covered on Miss A, please contact Rochelle at rochelle.robinson@askmissa.com.

Their knowledge and passion are utterly transparent when they talk about riding, the culture and both the traditional and cutting edge fashion trends of the equestrian world.

LA Saddlery, which can be found at the forefront of the LA Equestrian Center in Burbank, houses everything from tack and bridle to jewelry and a wide array of elegant and sporty wares that even a layman would pine after, actually, drool over.

The fabrics, while breathable and stretchy to yield to your athletic endeavors upon your horse, will contour your body with style and elegance. Buyers before they bought the company, Renee and Tabitha still revel in the indulgence of traveling our wide world to shop and buy the best digs to offer up to their high-end clientele, as well as new, die-hard and casual riders.

You can also catch the girls at horse shows across California. This week Renee has set up shop in Sonoma Horse Park for the HMI Equestrian Classic I and The Giant Steps Charity Classic shows.
