Today I’m delighted to be giving away a lovely Heavyweight Bobble Hat from Apt Cavalier. Apt Cavalier has very kindly donated this to me… well, to one of you… so I would like to say a HUGE thank you to Sarah and the team too.

Why am I giving away a one of Apt Cavalier’s Bobble Hats?

Apt Cavalier is a fairly new company, but it caught my eye before it launched because of its strong branding, lovely colours and striking photography. I like to think I have my finger on the equestrian and country business pulse (I’m sure that’s a phrase?!), so when Apt Cavalier launched, I did pay attention. And I’ve been so, so impressed with everything that Apt Cavalier has done since. The photography, the content marketing, the social media, the products… everything really. This area of the equestrian world has seen a lot of growth in recent years and I think Apt Cavalier has pitched it slightly differently to many others which, again, impressed me. I like people who see a space and make it their own.

Why do I like the Apt Cavalier Bobble Hat?

Well, when I was working on my various Christmas Gift Guides, I was keen to include some Apt Cavalier products. I asked to borrow two – the bobble hat and the saddlepad, and I said I would return them after I’d filmed/photographed them. This was something I offered to everyone who took part in the gift guide. Anyway. The parcel arrived and I opened it and the ‘problem’ was the colour. Well. It was the same colour as my brand and essentially my favourite colour ever. So I had to buy it. I paid for it and it was all I could do not to wear it straight away, but it did motivate me to crack on and film that bit of the gift guide pronto, so I could start using it in my day to day life! Since I filmed and photographed it, I feel that it hasn’t left my head that much! I wear my Apt Cavalier Bobble Hat whenever I walk the dog or spend prolonged periods outside at the moment. It keeps my hair flat (which deserves an award itself), it’s a really good length so you can pull it down over your ears, and did I mention the colour?! Yes. I love mine. And I’m thrilled that one lucky Facebook fan will get to enjoy the same experience.

Would you like to win an Apt Cavalier Bobble Hat?

I bet you do… if you’re anything like me, you’ll wonder what you did without it! The competition will run until midnight the day that this blog is published. If you miss it, you can still buy the hat online on Apt Cavalier’s website. However, if you’re in time, all you need to do it pop on over to my Rhea Freeman PR Facebook page, watch the video that will be pinned to the top today and enter. That’s it! Of course, I’d love it if you’d tell your friends by sharing the post.

I hope you enjoy my advent calendar competition – best of luck!
